When you need it
When are condolence chairs needed?
We hire out condolence chairs, set them in quiet orderly rows along the full length of the space, then lift and remove them once the mourning days have ended.
- 01
A condolence tent outside the home
The tent stands in front of the house and there are not enough seats for those who come to offer condolences. We place the chairs in parallel rows along the tent so visitors can sit and move through with ease.
- 02
An indoor condolence gathering
The room is spacious but household chairs are too few and unsuitable for receiving many visitors. We arrange the chairs along the walls in straight rows that suit the occasion, leaving the centre clear.
- 03
Receiving guests along the street
When the number of visitors exceeds the indoor space, seating moves to the pavement or private road. We set the chairs in neat rows along the wall or fence, in a manner that suits the occasion and keeps movement clear.

How it works
From first message to pickup
- 01
Send us the details
On WhatsApp: send the reception location and its nature (indoor hall, tent or street frontage), your estimated guest count, and which direction mourners will enter, so we can propose the right row arrangement.
- 02
We agree the arrangement
We propose the chair count and whether rows face inward or run parallel, based on the layout and entry direction, with everything confirmed before the day we arrive.
- 03
We deliver and set up quietly
The team arrives and places the chairs in their arranged rows before receiving begins, without noise or disturbance to the family.
- 04
Chairs lifted and returned
At the agreed time after the condolence period ends, the team arrives, lifts the chairs row by row and carries them away, leaving nothing for the family to handle.

FAQ
Questions about condolence chair rental
What type of chair suits a condolence gathering?
Condolence chairs are typically plain, quiet in colour and light in design without decoration, suitable for close rows and long sitting. Send us a description of the space and we will suggest what fits.
Can the chairs be arranged in a narrow or uneven space?
Yes, we adapt the rows to the shape and dimensions of the space, whether a long corridor, a corner or a pavement. If the ground is uneven, mention it when you message us so we bring what is needed to keep the rows steady.
How do I judge how many chairs the condolence will need?
Tell us the length and type of space and your estimate of visitors at the busiest time, and we propose the number of rows. A photo of the place makes the suggestion more precise.
Can you arrive early before receiving starts?
We agree the setup time with you when the order is placed and make sure the chairs are in position before visitors arrive. Mention the time you need when you send the details on WhatsApp and we will arrange it.
