All our products are delivered to you clean, polished and wrapped, ready for your immediate use.

Our crockery and glassware are supplied for any function - no matter how small.

Bookings are taken on order forms, in writing, on the telephone, or by email, and we are always available to offer advice or to send you a price list. Once the stock has been checked you will receive written confirmation of your order and a deposit may be required.

A delivery service is available for which there is an additional charge.

Changes to your order can be made up to one week before delivery, without incurring an extra charge.

Delivery date and time will be confirmed with you during the week before the hire period.

All crockery etc. is to be scraped off, emptied, and repacked as delivered. We then wash it, check it and return any deposit monies after breakages/losses have been accounted for. (Breakages and losses are charged at list price).
