Getting it to Carlos

Carlos is about 50 miles out from Albany — roughly 65 minutes each way, near the edge of where we run. This far out, we will tell you plainly whether delivery makes sense for your headcount, or whether you are better off towing.

Carlos is a small town — about 490 people — and the seating for anything big usually gets borrowed from three directions. Carlos events tend to happen in the places a town this size actually has: the church hall, the community centre, the ball field, somebody's shop.

We cover Carlos as part of a run through Douglas County that also takes in Miltona, Nelson and Alexandria, so it is rare that we are making a trip out here for one booking. There is no per-chair rate to do arithmetic on, and no weekend multiplier waiting at the end. Nothing about this is complicated, and we work to keep it that way.

What $299 actually gets you in Carlos

178 steel folding chairs and 4 banquet tables, already loaded on racks inside an enclosed trailer. It rents as one bundle. There is no per-chair rate to calculate, no weekend surcharge, and no separate delivery line unless we are driving it to you.

One flat $299 for the weekend whether you pull 40 chairs off the rack or all 178. Most rental companies price per chair per day, so a Friday-to-Sunday event gets multiplied by three before delivery is even added. That is the whole reason we bundle it.

Why they ride on racks

The chairs hang on racks and the tables ride along the wall. You pull what you need off the rack, and at the end of the night you hang them back. That is the entire unload and reload — no stacking hundred-chair towers, no games of trailer Tetris in the dark, and no counting them back in one at a time.

It also means the count is honest. We load 178 chairs, you get 178 chairs, and if your Carlos event only needs sixty you have spares for the ones that end up wet, wobbly or claimed by somebody's cooler.

Questions we get from Carlos

How much does it cost to rent tables and chairs in Carlos?

$299 for the weekend gets you all 178 folding chairs and 4 tables as one bundle, whether you use forty of them or all of them. A $200 refundable deposit holds the date. Delivery to Carlos is separate and quoted by distance — delivery quoted by distance applies here.

How far is Carlos from your trailer?

About 50 miles from Albany, roughly a 65-minute drive. It is an easy haul if you are towing it yourself.

What do I need to tow the trailer?

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.

Do you deliver to Carlos?

Yes. Delivery quoted by distance applies to Carlos, which is 50 miles from Albany. Bounce houses are always delivered, anchored and set up by us — we never hand those off.

Do you rent tablecloths or dishes?

No. Chairs, tables and bounce houses is the whole list right now, with tents and yard games coming. We would rather do a short list properly.

What if the weather turns?

The trailer is enclosed, so the chairs stay dry until you pull them out. If you have to move the whole thing indoors, the racks make picking them back up quick.

Are you actually the cheapest option around here?

For a whole weekend, we think so, and the arithmetic is public: $299 across 178 chairs is $1.68 a chair for the entire weekend. Companies that price per chair per day multiply that by however many days you keep them. Get a quote from anyone else and compare the weekend total, not the daily rate — that is where the difference shows up.
