Party Rentals

For party & event rental companies

You don't buy furniture. You buy turns.

Chivari has supplied party and event rental companies since 2007. We're a family-owned manufacturer in Miami — we design, engineer and build commercial-grade event furniture, sell it to you at wholesale volume pricing, ship it fast, and stock the replacement parts so a damaged chair goes back on the truck instead of into the dumpster. qwertwertrt

Everything on this page is chosen for one job: surviving a hundred setups a year and still photographing well.

One

Wholesale volume pricing

Volume tiers are published on every product page and step down with quantity — no quote required to see them. For 100 units or more, ask for the rental-fleet tier.

Two

Packages, or build your own

Pre-configured kits that outfit a 100-person event in one purchase order — chairs, tables, carts and straps. Or configure your own from see our event packages.

Three

Client Concierge

A team that knows the finishes, the stack heights and the cart capacities. Ask them about the free sample chair program if you want to sit in one before you commit.

Start here

The five things every rental house owns

Plastic folding chairs, resin folding chairs, plywood tables, plastic tables, and something to move them on. These are the must-haves for the overwhelming majority of party rental companies — and the category with the most competition and the tightest margins. Buy them well, then differentiate somewhere else.

A cart is not an accessory. It is the labor plan.

The one purchase that reduces the labor line on every event for the life of the fleet — and Chivari-built carts carry ten-year coverage.

Differentiate your business

Everyone in your market rents a white folding chair

Which is exactly why the folding chair is the most competitive, lowest-margin thing you own. There are four ways out, and only two of them are any good.

Cut your price

The oldest and least creative move. Lower prices lower margins — you work harder for less profit, against a competitor who can do the same thing tomorrow.

Answer the phone

Pick it up. Return calls the same day. Answer the email. You will be surprised how many competitors won't do this — and it costs nothing but discipline.

Stock what they can't

A chair your competitor doesn't own is business they cannot quote. This is the cheapest real moat available to a rental house.

Go premium

Premium inventory eliminates the low-end competitor and the budget shopper in the same move, and it carries premium margins on the same truck.

The inventory that does the differentiating:



Chiavari Chairs

Still the most booked premium chair

Folds flat, read as garden - not as rented

The farm table pairing everyone asks for

Chiavari chairs are still the most popular chair on the floor — after cycling in and out of favor for twenty years.

Rental operators and manufacturers interviewed in Rental Management, “What's the latest in chair trends?”, October 6, 2025. The same reporting notes construction has moved away from wood frames toward resin and steel on rental-durability grounds.

Move your business

You are not in the furniture business. You are in the moving business.

Move it in, set it up, come back, strike it, move it out. Rinse and repeat. A rental item gets handled roughly eight times per event— pulled, inspected, staged, loaded, delivered, set, struck, washed — and the client who hired you wants you out of the way as fast as possible. Every minute you cut off a setup is labor cost you keep and a customer who calls you again.

Folding Chair Carts

Several models. Up to 120 poly chairs on one cart, in about sixteen square feet of floor.

Shop Now ▸

Hand Trucks & Chair Dollies

Flat-free wheels, 800 to 1,200 lb capacities. For the venue with a gravel lot and no dock.

Shop Now ▸

Table Carts & Stack Dollies

Table carts, chair carts. Tops on edge, chairs hung, one trip to the truck

Shop Now ▸

Browse all carts and dollies,chair carts, and protective covers— because most fleet damage happens in transit and storage, not at the event.

Expand your business

Your customers are already renting these from someone else

Once chairs and tables are established, the expansion is the easy part: your existing customers need the rest of the room. Bars are one of the highest-margin things a rental house can put on an invoice. Schools need stages every May. And nobody has ever thrown a wedding without asking about a dance floor.

Portable & Modular Bars

Straight and serpentine sections that configure into a different bar every weekend - 24' islands to 50' runs

Shop Now ▸

Portable Dance Floors

100+ options. HPL on both faces over a honeycomb core, cam-locked - not taped.

Shop Now ▸

Portable Stages

Graduations recitals, corporate AV, the band. Decks, lets, skirts, steps and guard rails.

Dress it up

The cheapest way to make one fleet look like four

Cushions, linens and tableware change the entire register of a room without changing a single chair. It is also the smartest inventory a rental house can own: a cushion cover in this season's color costs a fraction of re-chairing, and it lets you quote a look your competitor can't match with the same frames.

Seat Cushions

Chiavari cushions, cross back, banquet, church and cushion cover shams.

Linens

100+ options. Rounds, rectangles, spandex cocktail covers, serpentine skirts.

Tableware & Glassware

400+ options. Front of the House™ dinnerware, Fortessa glass and flatware.

Rental Business Operations: Building Profitable Event Furniture Inventory

Event rental companies live on inventory. The furniture you own determines which events you can serve, what pricing you can command, and ultimately, how profitable your business becomes. Yet many rental entrepreneurs approach inventory selection haphazardly, purchasing whatever seems like...

Before, during, and long after the sale

The question nobody asks until year three

When a chair comes back off a Saturday with a cracked foot and a scraped leg, is there a part in a box — or is the chair scrap? Most manufacturers have no answer. That is the whole reason a rental fleet quietly loses ten to fifteen percent of its inventory a year.

  • 118 stocked replacement parts. Foot caps in 100-cap packs, Chiavari leg brackets and feet, cart wheel kits keyed to each cart model, cocktail poles, tops, bases and couplers.

  • 18 matched touch-up paints, named to the finishes — Classic Gold, Chestnut, Fruitwood, Mahogany, Silver Onyx and the rest. See the range ▸

  • Up to 10-Year Total Coverage on Steel Skeleton™ chairs, folding tables, banquet chairs and Chivari-built carts. Warranty terms ▸

  • Ships from Miami, Chicago or Las Vegas, with warehouse pickup usually ready in 24 to 48 hours on in-stock items.

  • Designed and engineered in the USA. Family-owned since 2007.

Tell us about your fleet and we'll build the list

Four questions get us most of the way: what does your booking history say you actually rent, how many turns a year do you get out of it, how much floor and how much truck do you have, and which item is costing you the most labor to move? We'll come back with the chairs, the tables, the carts to go with them, and the freight — including the cases where the least expensive option on the page is the right answer.
