What to Check Before You Hire

Party hire covers the physical gear an event needs when the venue doesn't supply it: tables and chairs, a marquee, lighting, sound and a screen. On the Peninsula, that's most often for a celebration at a private property, a beach house or a winery lawn.

The list here is small so far, with three hire businesses to choose from. All three hire out furniture, two also put up marquees and one offers audio-visual gear, so a single order can often cover more than one item.

Before you request quotes:

  • Draw up a basic list: guest numbers, seated or standing, and whether you need cover from sun or rain
  • Ask each business to quote delivery, setup and collection separately from the hire items
  • Check the site for access – narrow driveways, soft ground and steep lawns can all change what's possible
  • Find out how long the gear can stay, as weekend hire sometimes runs from Friday to Monday
  • Ask about damage, breakages and cleaning charges in writing

Peak summer and school-holiday weekends book up quickly, and some popular items run short. Confirm the order early, then finalise numbers closer to the date.

Send your list to a couple of hire businesses and see which can supply the most of it. Quotes come straight from them, with no commission added.

The Three Kinds of Hire

  • Event furniture hire: tables, chairs, lounges, bars, dance floors and the linen to go with them
  • Marquee hire: cover for a lawn or paddock, from a simple open-sided structure to a fully walled marquee with flooring
  • AV hire: microphones, speakers, screens and lighting for speeches, presentations or a dance floor

Other Suppliers to Line Up With Your Hire

  • A caterer will need prep space, power and tables of their own, so add those to the order
  • An event stylist can choose the furniture and finishing pieces if you'd rather not do it yourself
  • For a work function, see corporate events for formats and venue ideas
  • If you'd rather avoid the setup altogether, compare venues that come with furniture and sound already in place

Party Supply FAQs

What can I hire for a party on the Mornington Peninsula?

The Peninsula hire businesses listed here cover furniture, marquees and AV equipment. Ask each one what else they stock, such as heaters, lighting or bars.

Can one business supply everything?

Some can supply furniture and a marquee together, which keeps delivery to one truck. AV is offered by fewer businesses, so check that early if you need a microphone or screen.

How far in advance should I book party hire?

For summer and holiday weekends, book as soon as your date is fixed. Other times of year usually give more flexibility, but popular items can still run out.

Do hire businesses set up and pack down?

Most offer it, especially for marquees and larger furniture orders. Ask what's included and whether you need to be on site for delivery and collection.

What should I check about my property before hiring?

Look at access for a truck, the slope and firmness of the ground, and where power is available. Sending photos to the hire business helps them quote accurately.

Who pays if hired gear is damaged?

Usually the hirer, so read the damage terms before signing. Ask whether a damage waiver is available and what counts as normal wear.
