Glassware hire in Balmain

Glassware hire for Balmain, Birchgrove and Rozelle. Real glass for terraces, pubs turned party rooms and a grand old town hall.

Hiring glasses in Balmain

Balmain parties happen in narrow terraces, small courtyards and upstairs rooms, which is exactly where a drink gets knocked over. Our crates stack in a corner until you need them, and anything that breaks is on one invoice after, with no fuss.

Balmain is about six kilometres from us across the water, inside our delivery circle. Street parking is the hard part, so tell us where we can pull up.

Local halls and venues

If you are hiring a room rather than using your own place, these are the ones people around Balmain use most. Clubs often have a bar with its own glassware. Check what comes with the room before you book extra, and hire only what is missing.

What you can hire

Everything comes in crates, and everything comes back dirty. The range is the same wherever we deliver:

  • Wine glasses, red and white, mostly Luigi Bormioli lead free crystal
  • Vintage coupes and champagne flutes for toasts and anything with photographs
  • Highballs and pilsners for spirits, beer and water
  • Trumpet and grappa glasses for the less obvious jobs
  • A drink dispenser as an add-on

See the full range and prices, or send us your numbers and we will work out what you need.

How it works

  • Tell us the date and the headcount. We come back with a quote, usually same day.
  • We deliver, or you collect. Pickup from Northbridge is free. Delivery is $40 each way because you are inside 10 km of us, on orders of $100 or more. Pickup has no minimum.
  • Three days. Friday to Monday covers a Saturday party without anybody rushing.
  • Send them back dirty. Do not wash them. That is the whole service.
