Are you looking to change up your banqueting or event furniture to make set up quicker, look smarter and store easier, to take up less space? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the right furniture and accessories, you and your team could save time, space, and the number of hands needed to rework a room of any size.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does your venue need to achieve a quick event furniture changeover?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Stacking chairs up to at least 10 high<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The more you can stack safely (following the manufacturer’s guidelines), the less space you\u2019ll need for storage and the more chairs you can transport, reducing the setup time. Most of our banquet and events chairs stack 10 high, except for the new Adatta range<\/a>, which can stack up to 15, increasing handling efficiency and maximising storage space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avoid carrying chairs by using trolleys<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Chair trolleys speed up the handling of large quantities from storage to event halls and vice versa. They also provide a safer method of transporting multiple chairs, lowering the risk of injury and damage to the furniture. Trolleys are inexpensive ways to improve efficiency and help extend the lifecycle of the chairs. At Burgess, we provide custom chair trolleys<\/a> for chair ranges to ensure their stability and safety. Seen above is the Adatta chair trolley that can hold up to 15 chairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Store more furniture in less space with folding tables<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Folding tables are essential for events. Simply collapsing the legs allows multiple tables to be stored in a fraction of the space. There\u2019s no need to restrict yourself to one style, as you can acquire folding tables in various shapes and sizes. Our Slimfold range<\/a> is a highly popular choice, renowned worldwide in premier venues for its flexibility and durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lighten the load with table trolleys<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tables can be cumbersome to carry, especially when transporting more than four or five. Using a table trolley gives your team the perfect tool to transport multiple tables in just a fraction of the time. Trolleys also help protect the tables from damage and lower the risk of personal injury in handling. Our table trolleys<\/a> are custom-made for the best handling, safety and protection of the furniture. Depending on the table range, a single trolley can transport up to ten tables.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Add wheels to your table legs to save time<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tables can be heavy and awkward, making reworking layouts time-consuming and labour-intensive. However, adding additional mobility options like built-in wheels can be the solution to a quicker and easier set-up, requiring fewer people and taking less time. This also avoids the tables being dragged, which not only makes a horrible noise that disturbs colleagues and guests, but can also damage the floor and feet of the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Save time with predefined furniture layouts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When organising your furniture, a lot of time can be wasted moving tables around to work out the best layout and ensure there is sufficient space for people to move around. To help avoid this, make sure you have a set of predefined layouts for different events and capacities. Think of this as your playbook so your team know exactly where you want tables and chairs to be. To assist, our experienced team can offer a free layout service<\/a> to provide you with the plans you need when purchasing from Burgess Furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
