From Albany it is 61 miles to Albertville — close enough that we know the roads and the venues. Folding chairs and banquet tables loaded on a trailer, quoted for the whole weekend. Tents and bounce houses too. Tow it yourself or let us bring it.
Albertville is about 61 miles out from Albany — roughly 80 minutes each way, near the edge of where we run. 61 miles each way is a real trip, so this is where the delivery quote actually matters. Ask and we will give you the number before you commit.
With about 8,070 residents, Albertville is big enough to have real venues and a steady run of events, but small enough that your party is not a rounding error to whoever takes the booking. Between the schools, the churches and the event spaces, Albertville generates a steady stream of the kind of party that outgrows whatever chairs are on hand.
We cover Albertville as part of a run through Wright County that also takes in Otsego, St. Michael and Monticello, so it is rare that we are making a trip out here for one booking. The price does not move with your headcount. That is not generosity, it is just simpler to run one trailer than to count chairs twice. The person reading your request is the person who loads the trailer. Nothing gets relayed.
A Central Minnesota graduation open house is not a sit-down dinner. People arrive in waves across four or five hours, stay forty minutes, and leave. That means you do not need a chair for every guest on the list — you need a chair for everyone who happens to overlap.
For most Albertville open houses that works out to somewhere between a third and a half of your total invite list. A full trailer covers an open house with several hundred people through the door, which is more than almost any single Albertville graduation will see.
And you do not have to get the number right, because you are not renting by the chair. The trailer comes loaded for one flat price whether you use half of it or all of it, and if you need more than it holds we can add to it. See pricing →
Graduation around Albertville lands in the same few weeks as every other district around here, and that is the crunch. The last two weekends of May and the first two of June are the ones that go first — often months ahead. If your Albertville open house is on one of those dates, get the trailer on the calendar before you order announcements, not after.
If we are already booked for your weekend we will tell you immediately rather than stringing you along, and we will usually know someone who can help.
One quote for the weekend covers the loaded trailer — folding chairs and banquet tables — as one bundle, however many you actually use. A $200 booking deposit reserves the date and comes off the total. Delivery to Albertville is separate and quoted by distance — delivery quoted by distance applies here.
Fewer than your invite list. Guests come and go across the afternoon, so plan seating for the peak overlap — usually a third to a half of the total. A full trailer covers an open house with 350 to 500 people through the door.
As early as you can. Late May and early June weekends are the busiest of our year and they book months out. Once you know the date, call — a $200 booking deposit reserves it, and it comes off your total.
About 61 miles from Albany, roughly a 80-minute drive. It is an easy haul if you are towing it yourself.
A 2-5/16 inch ball and a vehicle rated to tow an enclosed trailer — most half-ton pickups and full-size SUVs handle it without any trouble. If you are unsure whether your vehicle is up to it, tell us what you drive in the booking form.
Yes. Delivery quoted by distance applies to Albertville, which is 61 miles from Albany.
No — you pull them off the racks and place them where you want them. That is part of why the price is what it is. Bounce houses and water slides come with their own blower and ground stakes; if you would like us to deliver and set one up, say so and it is quoted with the booking.
A chair or two out of {chairs} is wear and tear, not a problem. Real damage — a cracked seat, a bent table leg — is billed after return at the replacement cost on the rental agreement. There is no separate damage deposit.
For a whole weekend, we think so, and it is the billing model rather than a discount: companies that price per chair per day multiply by the count and again by the days. We quote the trailer once, for the weekend. Get a quote from anyone else and compare the weekend total, not the daily rate — that is where the difference shows up.
