Events and rental: Website for tableware rental companies
A website for tableware rental companies that presents collections, table linen and hire by the crate so a host or caterer can work out what each place setting needs.
What visitors want to know from tableware rental companies.
People hiring tableware for a wedding or a company dinner think in guests and courses, not crates. Yet most tableware rental companies hire by the crate or rack with a fixed quantity, and the price depends on whether items come back dirty or rinsed. A site with only product photos and unit prices hides all of that. Visitors order one dinner plate per guest and forget the starter plate, the dessert cutlery or glasses for the second wine. Or they pick a linen tablecloth without knowing which table size it suits. Correcting that takes an email exchange per enquiry, even though the explanation is the same for everyone.

Show collections as a laid table
Every collection is shown the way it looks on the table: plate, cutlery, glasses and napkin together, for a buffet, a three course dinner or a standing reception. Underneath are the individual items with the quantity per crate. Visitors see the whole picture first and the components second.
Explain crates, cleaning and returns
A short explanation shows how hire by the crate works, what changes between returning items dirty or rinsed, and how linen should come back. It also covers which tablecloth sizes fit which tables. That guidance sits beside the collections rather than being buried in the terms and conditions.
From guest count to enquiry
The enquiry starts with guest count, type of occasion and date. From that the site proposes a first place setting list the visitor can adjust. The rental company receives a list with quantities and choices instead of a vague question about whether there are any plates left.
Connected to your software.
Tableware rental companies usually run a web shop or rental system with item numbers, prices per crate and stock levels. The website uses those items as its source and adds the guidance and the example table settings. A collection that is temporarily unavailable can be taken out of the range without rewriting the page. You manage photos, copy and example tables yourselves. The rental company stays the owner of prices and terms; the site simply displays them.
Unit price or price per crate
A price per item is easier for a private customer to understand, but suggests any quantity can be hired. A price per crate matches how you actually work, but needs explaining. Many companies show both: a unit price for comparison and, beside it, the crate quantity the order will be rounded up to.
Order online or enquire first
For standard collections and fixed quantities, customers can order and pay straight away. For large numbers, custom linen or a tight date, an enquiry is wiser because stock needs checking first. The site can offer both routes depending on the size of the order, so nobody is forced down the wrong one.
Writing for hosts or caterers
A private host wants to know what belongs on the table at a dinner. A caterer knew that long ago and mainly wants quantities, availability and return rules at a glance. A separate entry point for regular business customers with a short order list spares them reading guidance they do not need.

We build the site with your most hired collections up front, guidance on crates, cleaning and linen, and an enquiry that goes from guest count to place setting list. Before going live we click through a simple birthday buffet together, and a three course wedding with two kinds of wine glass. Online ordering for standard collections, a quick order list for caterers and stock from the rental system are added as soon as you want them.
View pricingHosting and careGood to know.
Explore pricing and optionsCan the site work out how much tableware we need per guest?
Yes, as a suggestion. Based on guest count and type of occasion, the site builds a place setting list with plates, cutlery and glasses. The visitor can adjust it. It stays a suggestion: the rental company checks it before the order is fixed, especially for large numbers.
Should we show prices per crate or per item?
That depends on who mostly orders. With many private customers a unit price helps; with caterers the crate price does. The site can show both and make clear that delivery is in full crates. That avoids surprise when the order comes out slightly higher once it is rounded up.
Can we show seasonal collections for a limited time?
Yes. A festive collection or a special linen colour can be shown with a start and end date. Outside that period it disappears from the site but is kept for next year. Nobody has to rebuild the same page every season.
How do we explain return rules without sounding patronising?
By making them concrete: a few photos of how a crate should come back and a short explanation of why glasses belong in the rack and linen goes dry into the bag. That works better than a list of prohibitions. People who understand the reason return things neatly more often, which saves you cleaning work.
