Common questions

Kitchenware & Utensils Hire FAQ — Nairobi

Clear answers about pricing, delivery, setup, deposits and choosing the right equipment for your event.

How many plates, glasses and cutlery pieces do I need for catering?

For a served meal, plan around one place setting per guest and allow roughly 10–15% extra for breakage, seconds or late additions. The menu matters: buffets, three-course dinners, tea service and cocktail receptions need different plate, glass and serving-equipment quantities. For accurate quantities, send your guest count, menu, service style, number of courses and caterer requirements so we can prepare the right equipment list.

Do catering equipment hires include cleaning after the event?

Items are prepared and checked before delivery, and collection arrangements are stated in the quotation. Return requirements vary by product, so confirm crockery, glassware, cooking equipment, fuel and any breakage terms with the team before the event. For accurate quantities, send your guest count, menu, service style, number of courses and caterer requirements so we can prepare the right equipment list.

Do you hire convection ovens, deep fryers, grills and beverage dispensers?

Yes. Catering equipment includes cooking and service items such as convection ovens, deep fryers, BBQ grills, corn pots, beverage dispensers, chafing dishes, urns, crockery and cutlery, subject to live stock availability for the date.

How many plates, glasses and cutlery pieces should I hire?

Quantities depend on guest count, menu and service style. We can calculate the list with your caterer. For accurate quantities, send your guest count, menu, service style, number of courses and caterer requirements so we can prepare the right equipment list.

Do you hire cooking equipment as well as serving ware?

Yes. Options may include cooking pots, gas cookers, burners, chafing dishes, serving utensils, beverage equipment and tableware. For accurate quantities, send your guest count, menu, service style, number of courses and caterer requirements so we can prepare the right equipment list.

Can equipment be delivered directly to my caterer?

Yes. We can coordinate delivery with your caterer or venue before food preparation and service setup begin. For accurate quantities, send your guest count, menu, service style, number of courses and caterer requirements so we can prepare the right equipment list.

How much does Kitchenware & Utensils hire cost in Nairobi?

What is included in Kitchenware & Utensils hire?

How far in advance should I book event equipment in Nairobi?

For a weekend event, book two to four weeks ahead, and earlier for December, school holidays and popular wedding dates. We can sometimes help with a last-minute request, but availability is only confirmed after the team checks the live stock schedule.

We accept the payment methods shown by the team and issue the final booking details after availability is confirmed. For accurate quantities, send your guest count, menu, service style, number of courses and caterer requirements so we can prepare the right equipment list.

Can I change the quantity or items after receiving a quote?

Yes, subject to availability. Tell us about changes as soon as possible so we can re-check stock, transport capacity and the setup plan; additions close to the event date cannot be guaranteed until the revised quotation is accepted. For accurate quantities, send your guest count, menu, service style, number of courses and caterer requirements so we can prepare the right equipment list.

What information do you need for an accurate hire quote?

Send the event date, venue or estate, guest count, event type, setup time and the items you are considering.
