Tables, tents & party hire in Durban: local notes
Peg and pole tents suit the soft lawns of Durban North and Westville, but township yards in Umlazi and Clermont are often sloped and tight, so a stretch tent or frame tent with weights may fit better. Beachfront and Umhlanga lawn functions need a tent with sides against wind and sand. Round tables with floor-length cloths are standard at temple hall receptions, and party hire for kiddies birthdays peaks over the December holidays.
Durban: the events, the weather and the hire firms
Few cities book chairs for as many reasons on one Saturday. Hindu weddings in Chatsworth and Phoenix can run over several days and want tents, Tiffany chairs, a stage for the couple and plenty of tables; funerals and unveilings in Umlazi and KwaMashu need a tent and plastic chairs in the yard by Friday; and corporate functions in Umhlanga want cocktail tables and lounge sets. Most hire firms work from industrial areas such as Prospecton, Jacobs, Springfield and Riverhorse Valley and send trucks across the metro. Summer brings humid heat and sudden downpours, so ask for tent sides and flooring, and mention steep Berea or Westville driveways when you describe access.
Who asks for tablecloth hire around Durban, most often first:
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: white or black cloths on the trestles for the meal after the service
- Families and home celebrations: white cloths on trestles for a 21st, a baby shower or a lobola lunch
- Companies, conferences and functions: black floor-length cloths for registration, rounds and a gala dinner
Local tips for Durban
Most hired in Durban: funeral tents and plastic chairs, wedding marquees and Tiffany chairs. Where the hire firms are: prospecton, Jacobs, Springfield, Riverhorse Valley and the townships. A useful tip: ask for tent sides and flooring in summer, and say if the yard is on a slope.
Bookings range widely: from 5 cloths to 100 or more. Here, funerals, memorials and unveilings lead the requests, typically for white or black cloths on the trestles for the meal after the service. One local point to raise: trucks from metro yards; outlying townships and the north coast may cost more.
