Gauteng notes on chairs
In Soweto, Tembisa, Mamelodi and Katlehong, white and black plastic chairs fill yards for funerals, unveilings and after-tears every weekend, often a hundred or more at a time. Wedding venues in Muldersdrift, the Cradle and east of Pretoria lean on gold Tiffany and cross back chairs. Ghost chairs and bar stools go to Sandton and Rosebank cocktail functions. Count stacks with the driver, because mixed loads between jobs are common on busy weekends.
Gauteng: the events, the weather and the hire firms
One Saturday in Gauteng can need a funeral tent in a Soweto yard, three hundred Tiffany chairs at a Muldersdrift wedding venue and a hall full of conference seating in Midrand, all from firms working the same roads. That competition for stock is the thing to plan around. Hire companies are spread through the industrial areas of every metro and across the townships, where many run a few tents and stacks of plastic chairs from home. Trucks move between Johannesburg, Pretoria and the East Rand daily, so transport fees usually follow distance or zones. Summer brings late afternoon thunderstorms and hail, so ask for tent sides and a plan for the walk from tent to house.
Who asks for ghost chair hire around Gauteng, most often first:
