Getting it to Richmond

Richmond is 15 miles from our trailer yard in Albany — about 20 minutes. That is close enough that we can usually deliver at no extra charge. 15 miles means the tow is not really a factor in your decision. Do whichever is easier on the day.

Richmond has around 1,504 people, which in this part of Minnesota means a community that turns out properly when something is happening. Richmond 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 Richmond as part of a run through Stearns County that also takes in Cold Spring, Roscoe and St. Martin, so it is rare that we are making a trip out here for one booking. You are renting a loaded trailer, not a chair count. Nobody tallies what you used when it comes back. You are dealing with the family that owns the trailer. There is nobody here to escalate to, and nobody who needs to be.

Weddings do not work like open houses

At a graduation open house you seat the overlap, because guests come and go. A wedding is the opposite: everyone sits down at the same moment, twice — once for the ceremony and once for dinner. You need a real chair for every guest on the Richmond list, not a fraction of it.

178 chairs covers a reception of up to about 178 people. If your list runs past that, call and we will tell you honestly whether we can cover it rather than letting you find out on the day.

Why having it all weekend matters

Wedding setup is never a same-day job. You want chairs on site Friday so the ceremony space can be laid out without anyone rushing, and you do not want a truck arriving to collect them while the reception is still going.

The trailer is yours Friday through Sunday for one $299 charge. Set up Friday, move the chairs from ceremony to reception on Saturday, tear down Sunday when you are ready. No second delivery fee for the shuffle.

What these chairs are, plainly

Clean steel folding chairs — the practical kind you see at barn weddings, church halls, VFWs and backyard receptions all over this part of Minnesota. They are sturdy, they are matching, and there are enough of them.

They are not gold chiavari chairs, and we would rather say so here than have you disappointed on the day. If your Richmond wedding calls for those, we are not your rental — but if you want every guest seated without a four-figure bill, this is exactly the job the trailer does.

Questions we get from Richmond

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

$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 Richmond is separate and quoted by distance — free delivery applies here.

How many chairs do I need for a wedding in Richmond?

One per guest. Unlike an open house, everyone sits at the same time — for the ceremony and again for dinner. 178 chairs covers a reception of up to about 178 people.

Can I use them for the ceremony and the reception?

Yes, and most people do — set them for the ceremony, then move them for dinner. You have the trailer all weekend, so there is no rush and no second delivery charge.

How far is Richmond from your trailer?

About 15 miles from Albany, roughly a 20-minute drive. You are practically next door.

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 Richmond?

Yes. Free delivery applies to Richmond, which is 15 miles from Albany. Bounce houses are always delivered, anchored and set up by us — we never hand those off.

Can I see it before I book?

Come by Albany and look at it. We would rather you knew what you were getting than guessed from a photo.

How early can I pick it up?

Friday is standard for a weekend booking, but if the trailer is free Thursday you can often have it then at no extra charge. It depends who has it before you.

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.
