Details to settle first
- Event date, start time and the hours furniture must stay in place.
- Confirmed guest count, plus the peak number present at any one moment.
- Venue name, floor and room, with indoor, outdoor or covered areas marked.

Use this toolWhat this covers
Start from the entry closest to your constraint
Start with the entry closest to your actual constraint — a specific item, event type or planning question — rather than browsing everything. The featured entries below cover the most common starting points.
Access facts apply across every entry here
Whichever specific page you open next, the same access facts — loading entrance, lift size, door width, setup time — will matter. Have them ready before you start comparing options.
- Item names, dimensions and a current-condition reference for each piece.
- Quantities per zone with an acceptable alternative noted beside each.
- Who delivers, places and removes furniture, and where the handover happens.
- Setup-ready and dismantling times mapped to the event run-sheet.
- Collection window, deposit and any change or overtime terms in writing.

Sketch guest, service and emergency routes before any furniture goes on the plan.
- 03
Break quantities down by zone, with an acceptable alternative for each.
- 04
Pass on the date, exact venue, floor, access slot and a site contact.

Get delivery, labour and collection written down the same way for every offer.
