Our trailer lives in Albany, 24 miles from St. Cloud, and our family loads it ourselves. 178 folding chairs and 4 tables, loaded on a trailer, $299 for the whole weekend. Tow it yourself or let us bring it.
St. Cloud is 24 miles from Albany, roughly a 30-minute drive, and it is a route we run often. A 30-minute tow each way is the trade for free delivery. Most people with a truck decide it is worth it.
St. Cloud is one of the larger markets we serve, with roughly 69,991 people and the rental competition that comes with that. What we compete on is the flat price and the fact that you are dealing with the family that owns the trailer. St. Cloud runs a full calendar — graduations, weddings, fundraisers, company events — and the venues here are used to outside rentals rolling in.
We cover St. Cloud as part of a run through Stearns County that also takes in Waite Park, Sauk Rapids and St. Augusta, 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. Word travels in towns this size, which is the only reason we need to keep this straight.
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 St. Cloud 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.
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.
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 St. Cloud 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.
$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 St. Cloud is separate and quoted by distance — flat-rate delivery applies here.
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.
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.
About 24 miles from Albany, roughly a 30-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. Flat-rate delivery applies to St. Cloud, which is 24 miles from Albany. Bounce houses are always delivered, anchored and set up by us — we never hand those off.
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.
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.
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.
