Mdantsane alone keeps many East London hire firms busy, with funerals, umgidi homecomings, weddings and church gatherings booked weekend after weekend. Bhisho and Qonce add provincial government events, launches and imbizos that need marquees, stages and rows of conference chairs. On the coast, Nahoon, Gonubie and Beacon Bay host garden and beach weddings, and schools across Vincent and Selborne run sports days and matric farewells. Hire firms are based in the industrial areas around Wilsonia and Arcadia and in Mdantsane, and many also deliver inland and along the coast to rural villages, charging by distance.

- Families and home celebrations: a few weeks at home after an operation or a grandparent visiting for the holidays
- Municipalities, clubs and communities: spare chairs at a festival, sports day or municipal event for visitors who need one
