We are based in Albany, 14 miles from Melrose, and we have been hauling chairs around this county long enough to know which weekends disappear first. 178 folding chairs and 4 tables, loaded on a trailer, $299 for the whole weekend. Tow it yourself or let us bring it.
Melrose is 14 miles from our trailer yard in Albany — about 20 minutes. That is close enough that we can usually deliver at no extra charge. 14 miles means the tow is not really a factor in your decision. Do whichever is easier on the day.
With about 3,607 residents, Melrose 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. Melrose runs a full calendar — graduations, weddings, fundraisers, company events — and the venues here are used to outside rentals rolling in.
We cover Melrose as part of a run through Stearns County that also takes in Meire Grove, New Munich and Greenwald, so it is rare that we are making a trip out here for one booking. Flat pricing means you can budget the party before you know the final headcount — which is the order people actually plan in. The person reading your request is the person who loads the trailer. Nothing gets relayed.
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.
| Chairs you actually use | What you pay | Cost per chair | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 40 chairs | $299 | $7.47 | Same trailer, same price |
| 80 chairs | $299 | $3.74 | Same trailer, same price |
| 120 chairs | $299 | $2.49 | Same trailer, same price |
| 178 chairs | $299 | $1.68 | Same trailer, same price |
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.
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 Melrose event only needs sixty you have spares for the ones that end up wet, wobbly or claimed by somebody's cooler.
$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 Melrose is separate and quoted by distance — free delivery applies here.
About 14 miles from Albany, roughly a 20-minute drive. You are practically next door.
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. Free delivery applies to Melrose, which is 14 miles from Albany. Bounce houses are always delivered, anchored and set up by us — we never hand those off.
It is a normal enclosed trailer. If you have pulled a boat or a skid loader trailer you will be fine. If you have not, most people would rather we deliver, and that is a fair call.
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.
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.
