Table and Chair Hire in Barnsley
Tables and chairs for hire in Barnsley, fifteen minutes up the road from our Rotherham warehouse. Deck chairs from £6.95, black foldable chairs from £2.95, canteen folding tables at £7.50 ex VAT.
DB Entertainment has been hiring out event kit since 1999, and 95% of it is our own stock, looked after at a 25,000 sq ft warehouse in Rotherham. On the furniture side that means up to 200 British-made wooden deck chairs in mixed stripes, stacking runs of black foldable chairs, canteen folding tables, 6ft foldable tables, Roll-a-Track flooring for the soft ground and massage chairs for wellbeing days. It all travels with the marquees, rides and games on the same vans, is set out by our own crew, and every hire carries £5 million public liability insurance.
Table and Chair Hire for Barnsley Events
Barnsley is about fifteen minutes from the warehouse via the A61 or the M1 at J36 and J37, with the vans covering S70 to S75 and out towards Penistone and Cawthorne through the week.
Barnsley’s furniture bookings run through the parks and the clubs. Locke Park off Keresforth Hall Road has had canteen tables out alongside gazebos and trampolines for a summer event, and a fun day on Barnsley Road in Wombwell took deck chairs, a bouncy castle and a rodeo bull. That’s the working men’s club pattern - furniture for the families, something loud for the kids.
Most Barnsley orders are the practical end of furniture hire: chairs for the club night or the awards do, tables for the refreshments stall, a gazebo over the top if the forecast turns. The same van brings the castles, the slides and the fun food, so the whole thing lands in one delivery.
Our Barnsley venues page lists the halls and community centres round the borough, from the club circuit out to Penistone and Cawthorne. If you’re running a club, school or parish event, it’s worth asking about multi-item pricing - the second and third lines work out cheaper than the first.
Chairs for Hire
Everything below is our own stock, racked at the Rotherham warehouse and delivered here in our own vans. Prices stay the same wherever in the area you’re hiring.
Deck Chair Hire
Up to 200 British-made wooden deck chairs with printed cotton slings, in mixed stripes from red to teal. They work indoors and out on grass or hard standing. From £6.95 plus VAT.
Giant Deck Chair Hire
A 9ft wide by 6ft tall seaside photo prop that takes two adults at once. The backdrop people pose at all day. From £169 plus VAT.
Black Foldable Chair
The stacking function-room chair: 82cm high, steel frame, BS 4875 tested, folds flat. It goes out with most builds we run. From £2.95. Add-on item - added from the extras list when you quote.
Massage Chair Hire
Full-body electric massage chairs for staff wellbeing days, offices and gyms, from £449 for a week per chair. Amazon has run month-long hires of them. Add-on item.
Tables, Flooring and the Package Route
The tables go out with the chairs, and the flooring goes under both when the ground is soft. The package at the end is the shortcut if you’d rather not build the order line by line.
Canteen Folding Tables Hire
1800 x 685mm aluminium folding tables, 13kg each, wipe-clean tops. One person can carry and set one up in seconds, and they work on every surface. £7.50 ex VAT per table per day.
6ft Table Foldable
The standard 6ft plastic-top table on a metal frame, folding flat for the van. From £6 incl VAT. Add-on item - added from the extras list when you quote.
Roll a Track Flooring
Green snap-together flooring that goes under the furniture on grass, mud or gravel. Around 16m2 per £120 lot, and one of our crew lays about 70m2 an hour. Add-on item.
Party Marquee Hire
The all-in route: a 4.5 x 3m marquee, with options adding flooring, then tables and chairs, then sound and lighting, then party lighting and heating. From £89 plus VAT.
What’s Included
- Delivery, setup and collection on our own trucks, with the crew laying out the chairs and tables to your plan
- £5 million public liability insurance on every hire
- Risk assessments and method statements emailed to your venue ahead of the event
- Festoon and marquee lighting options when the furniture is staying on into the evening
- Multi-day and long-term rates - the canteen tables in particular go out on weekly and monthly hires for offices and schools
- Weekend and overnight hires available, priced per item
A few honest notes, because they come up: delivered orders carry a £50 minimum spend plus delivery, and deck chairs have a minimum quantity that depends on where the event is and what else is on the van. The tables are working hire kit - we wipe them down between hires, but for a smart do we’d suggest tablecloths, which venues expect at those events anyway. And the flooring lives on the ground, so it comes back clean but not pristine. None of that is a problem if you know it going in.
Common Furniture Builds for Barnsley
Most furniture orders here come with something else attached, so these are the patterns we actually load. Each build travels on one delivery, set out by the same crew.

Park Summer Event - Locke Park
The Locke Park build: a run of pop-up marquees for the stalls, canteen tables underneath, and the six-bed trampolines going all day beside them.

Do you deliver tables and chairs to Barnsley?
Yes, about fifteen minutes from the Rotherham warehouse via the A61 or the M1 at J36 or J37. We cover S70 to S75 plus Penistone, Cawthorne and the villages, and the same vans bring marquee hire and everything else if the event needs it.
How many chairs will I need?
Work it out from the format rather than the guest list. A sit-down meal needs a chair for every guest plus about 5% spare for late confirmations. A drinks party or fun day needs somewhere between a third and a half of the headcount seated, because people circulate. Deck chairs go in rows facing the action - budget one for every two or three expected guests.
How clean are the tables and chairs?
They’re working hire kit. We wipe the tables down and check every chair between hires, but they go to fun days and conferences rather than showrooms - so for a wedding or a smart corporate do, add tablecloths, which is what those venues expect anyway. The flooring is the same deal: it lives on the ground, so it comes back clean but not pristine, and we say so up front.
Do you set the furniture out for us?
Yes. Delivery, setup and collection are part of the hire, and the crew lays the chairs and tables out to your plan - rows for an audience, tables around the edge for a party, a deck chair row facing a stage. If the venue has given you a floor plan, send it over and we’ll work to it. Collection is the same day unless you’ve booked overnight hire.
Is there a minimum order or spend?
Delivered orders carry a £50 minimum spend plus the delivery charge. Deck chairs have a minimum quantity that depends on your location and what else is on the van - 30 or more chairs get delivered across most of England and Wales, and smaller quantities can be collected from our Rotherham warehouse with a deposit and photo ID.
