Corporate event
glassware hire

Launches, end of year drinks and client events. Real glass, delivered and collected, and an invoice that goes through your books cleanly.

Real glass at a launch

The glassware at a launch is in every photograph and in every hand. Disposable cups are fine until you look back at the pictures. Real glass is the part everyone actually touches.

It costs from $1.50 a head for three days, which is very little against what the rest of the evening costs.

How it works around an office

The three day hire is built for a working week. We deliver on the Thursday, you hold the event on the Friday evening, and we collect on the Monday. Nobody has to come in on a weekend and nobody is washing glasses in the office kitchen.

Tell us about the building when you book. Loading dock, lift access, whether there is a security desk that needs a name. Crates of glass are heavy and the delivery goes better when we know in advance.

Invoicing and the paperwork

We invoice properly, with payment terms, rather than asking for the card up front. If you need a quote first to get it approved, we issue that too and then convert it, so the numbers match all the way through.

Ask for an invoice rather than a quote when you enquire and we will set it up that way from the start.

What corporate events usually take

  • Launch or drinks: wine glasses and highballs, roughly two per head
  • Sit down dinner: red, white and water per setting
  • Champagne moment: flutes, or coupes if you want the photographs to be better
  • Anything outdoors: more water glasses than you planned for

Questions

Do you invoice businesses?

Yes, with payment terms. Say you need an invoice when you enquire and we will set it up that way rather than treating it as a private booking.

Can you deliver to a city office?

Yes, Sydney wide. Tell us the loading dock and lift arrangements when you book, and whether there is a security desk we need to be expected at.

Do you supply enough for a large launch?

Tell us the headcount. We hire by the crate and can put together several hundred glasses, but for the bigger jobs give us plenty of notice so we can hold stock.

Do we have to wash them before returning?

No. Return them dirty in the crates. Washing is included and it is the reason most people hire rather than buy.

Hiring for something in particular?
