What to know locally in Cape Town
Funerals in Khayelitsha, Gugulethu, Philippi and Delft book white plastic chairs by the hundred, usually with a tent on the pavement or yard. Constantia and Durbanville wine farm weddings ask for cross back or gold Tiffany chairs, and Camps Bay or Llandudno beach ceremonies use Wimbledon or folding chairs that cope with sand. Ghost chairs and bar stools are popular at Woodstock and De Waterkant launches and rooftop parties.
Hiring for events in Cape Town
Two seasons rule Cape Town bookings. From November to March, the south-easter blows hard while wine farm weddings in Constantia, beach events on the Atlantic seaboard, product launches and festive parties fill the calendar, and tent firms check wind forecasts closely. From May to August, winter rain moves events under cover, so marquees with sides, flooring and heating take over. All year, funerals in Khayelitsha, Gugulethu, Nyanga and Langa need a tent and plastic chairs, and Cape Malay weddings and Eid gatherings in the Bo-Kaap, Athlone and Mitchells Plain book tables, chairs and linen. Most hire firms run from Montague Gardens, Epping, Paarden Eiland and Ottery, and charge more to reach the far southern suburbs or the West Coast.
Typical plastic chair hire requests in the area come from:
- Weddings and engagements: budget reception seating dressed with stretch covers and coloured sashes for the day
- Companies, conferences and functions: extra seats for a staff briefing, a factory year-end or an open day
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: rows of chairs under a tent at the family home, then the after-tears
Local tips for Cape Town
Common here: wedding marquees and Tiffany chairs, funeral tents, corporate lounge sets. Ask each hire firm about this: ask how the tent handles the south-easter and whether winter sides are included. Where they work from: montague Gardens, Epping, Paarden Eiland and Ottery.
Around Cape Town the largest group asking is weddings and engagements, which usually means budget reception seating dressed with stretch covers and coloured sashes for the day. Before you agree to anything: check for cracked legs and count the stacks. Delivery here: trucks from industrial areas; far suburbs, Atlantic venues and farms cost more.
Service area: Cape Town and surrounds
Requests from Cape Town go to hire firms that already deliver to Century City, Woodstock, Epping, Montague Gardens, Paarden Eiland, Claremont, Salt River and the rest of the area. Mention stairs, a long carry, a gravel road or an after-hours collection, because they change the price.
