Mthatha notes on special seating & dressing
Elders at umgidi, imbeleko and traditional weddings are often seated in wingback or covered armchairs at the front, with rows of covered chairs for guests. University graduations and school functions in town book conference chairs and sashes. Government offices hire seating for imbizos in community halls. Wheelchair hire serves patients leaving the regional hospitals for rural homes, so ask about delivery and collection that far out.
Mthatha: the events, the weather and the hire firms
Distance defines hire in Mthatha. The town is the supply base for a huge rural area, and most bookings are for funerals, umgidi homecomings, traditional ceremonies and weddings at homesteads in villages around Libode, Mqanduli, Ngcobo and Tsolo. A funeral may need a large tent, hundreds of plastic chairs and catering tables delivered over gravel roads before the weekend. In town, the university, schools and government offices add graduations, prize-givings and imbizos. Hire firms are based in Mthatha and charge transport by distance, and some families collect smaller orders by bakkie or trailer. Hilly ground, summer thunderstorms and cold winter nights are the usual cautions, and wet roads can delay a delivery to a village.

- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: rarely, though families sometimes book the same chairs for a memorial a week later
- Schools, colleges and universities: a staff wedding held at a school hall with chairs set at round tables
