Events and rental: Enquiry form for marquee rental companies
An enquiry form for marquee rental companies that collects site size, ground type, access and date, so each enquiry can be assessed without a call back first.
What makes an enquiry complete for marquee rental companies.
A marquee enquiry often lands as a short email: a date, a guest count and a question about cost. For marquee rental companies that is not enough. Without the site size you cannot say which tent fits, without the ground type you cannot say whether it will be pegged or ballasted, and without access details you do not know whether the lorry can reach the spot. The salesperson rings back, the customer cannot remember and promises a photo that never arrives. Meanwhile the requested date is not held anywhere, and a week later it turns out the last suitable tent has gone to someone else.

From form to assessed enquiry.
Walk through the site
The form starts with occasion, date and guest count, then moves to the site: length and width of the clear area, type of ground and any slope. Each question carries a short hint, such as how to measure a garden or why paving needs different anchoring. Photos can be uploaded straight from a phone.
Flag what is missing
If the person enquiring does not know something, they can say so rather than guess. The form leaves that question open and marks the enquiry, so the salesperson sees exactly what still needs checking. An enquiry with only a date and a head count no longer slips quietly in among the complete ones.
Pass on with a date hold
A complete enquiry reaches the salesperson with site details, photos and the preferred build and strike days. They can see at once which tent types are still free for that period and place a provisional hold. The customer gets confirmation that the enquiry is being handled, listing any points still open.
Enquiries in one place, not the inbox.
Marquee rental companies receive enquiries through the website, by phone, at trade fairs and sometimes from an event agency acting for the end client. The form puts all of them into the same format in the inbox or rental system you already use. Phone enquiries are taken by the salesperson using the same questions. Site photos stay with the enquiry and travel on to the quote and the build crew, so nobody has to ask for them twice.
Short form or thorough questions
A short form brings in more enquiries, a longer one brings in better ones. A party tent in a back garden needs only a handful of questions; a hall on an event field needs a lot more. The form can show different questions per type of enquiry, so private customers do not give up and business clients can still say everything they need to.
Typed dimensions or uploaded site plan
Private customers rarely know their garden in metres, while organisers often have a site plan. The form takes both: people without measurements follow a short guide or send photos, people with a plan upload it. For every enquiry the salesperson can see where the dimensions actually came from.
Hold straight away or assess first
Automatically holding stock for every incoming enquiry ties up tents for people who never come back. Assessing everything by hand first eats time in peak season. A middle route is a short hold that only applies to complete enquiries and lapses by itself if the salesperson does nothing with it.

Read the storyWhich questions the form asks.
Ready at the start: the form for the most common enquiries, with questions on site, ground and access, photo upload and hand-off to the salesperson. A private garden enquiry and an organiser who only knows a date and the name of a venue are walked through together before it goes live. A separate path for business enquiries and reading availability in from the rental system can be switched on afterwards.

Explore pricing and optionsWon't people give up if we ask this many questions?
That risk is real, which is why the form asks what everyone knows first and only then turns to the site. Any site question can be left open. Someone who stops halfway has still left contact details and a date, so the salesperson can phone them rather than lose the enquiry altogether.
Can people send photos of their site with the enquiry?
Yes, directly from their phone. The form asks for a few specific shots: the site itself, the access from the road and obstacles such as trees, drains or an embankment. Those photos stay with the enquiry and are later visible to the crew who put up the tent.
What happens to enquiries that come through an event agency?
They get their own fields for the end client and the on-site contact. That keeps it clear who receives the quote and who opens the gate on build day. The agency can use one account for several events, so its own details do not have to be entered again each time.
Can the form tell whether a tent is free on that date?
It can if the rental system can share availability. The form does not show stock to the person enquiring, but the salesperson sees on arrival which tent types are still free. A firm confirmation stays a human decision, because the site determines which tent will really work.
