And we all know that the world of professional catering is a competitive one, with caterers pitching to win the business of large clients and events.

This invariably means that quality of their catering equipment hire company being as many of these events are held in venues which don’t necessarily always have their own catering facilities and, if they do, they might not be equipped with what is required. In other words, work with a reliable catering supply company, and you’re half way there!

The ‘How To’ suggestions below, therefore, might help you find the best catering equipment hire company. Of course, we hope that you’ll choose to use Event Hire UK, but with the amount of choice and competition out there, we want you to choose us on merit!

Range

The run up to a busy catering event can be manic, especially for large event catering. Surely it will make life easier for you if you can hire everything you need from the same place. Why? Well, this means that you only have to place one order, have a single point of contact, one delivery, one collection and one invoice rather than multiple different items of catering equipment coming from different places. In our opinion, therefore, it’s going to save you time, money and effort if you can source everything from one company.

That’s why we offer you everything from heavy-duty commercial catering equipment with many items in both electric and LPG, through to refrigeration hire in the form of bottle fridges, chest freezers, walk in cold rooms and refrigerated trailers to name just a few, all the way through to food presentation equipment and tableware. The range of choice here at Event Hire UK is vast, with over 750+ product lines.

Quantity

As well as having the largest range of equipment hire for catering in the country, you can rest assured that we also have the quantities. To give you an idea of numbers, we have over 250 fridges in one form or another, over 100 electric hot cupboards and 200,000 glasses for hire…and that’s just a small selection. The best catering equipment hire companies have multiples of everything so that multiple events can be serviced at any one time.

Condition

It’s no good working with a catering equipment rental company that has a big range and big quantities, but the quality is poor. In the throes of preparation for your catering event, you need to have confidence that the cooking equipment hire products are going to arrive in great condition, ready for instant use, and they are going to work as soon as you plug them in! That’s why all our electric catering equipment is regularly PAT tested and all our gas catering equipment is LPG tested.

Service from your chosen catering equipment hire company

We mentioned before that there are benefits in having a single point of contact with your catering equipment hire company. It gives you tremendous peace of mind if you know that you can pick up the phone at any time, day or night, and speak to your account manager who will be able to assist, both proactively and reactively. At the same time, with this in mind, it’s always advisable to work with a local catering equipment hire company so that they can deliver into and collect from your event venue with no hassle, quickly and efficiently, often at short notice.
