Tent Rental FAQs for Cumberland County and Surrounding Areas

  • Do you deliver and set up event tents?

    Yes. Our team delivers and sets up all tents, staging, dance floors, and lighting included in your order. Tables and chairs are delivered and stacked beneath the tent or placed in another designated area. Table and chair setup is available for an additional charge.

  • Do customers need to be home during delivery and setup?

    No. Customers do not need to be home during delivery or setup as long as our crew can access the event area. The location where the tent will be installed must also be clearly marked before the delivery team arrives.


    Please make sure gates are unlocked, pets are secured, and the setup area is free of vehicles, equipment, and other obstacles.

  • Do party tents have to be installed on grass?

    No. Our event tents can be installed on grass and other types of surfaces. Tent installations on surfaces where traditional staking cannot be used may require water barrels or concrete blocks for proper anchoring. An additional charge applies when these anchoring methods are needed.


    Let our team know whether your event will be held on grass, pavement, concrete, or another surface when requesting your quote.

  • Can sides be added to a tent rental?

    Yes. All of our tents can have sidewalls added for an additional charge. Tent sides can provide extra coverage and help create a more enclosed event space.


    Tell our team about the time of year, event location, and type of celebration you are planning so we can help you choose an appropriate tent configuration.

  • How do I know what size tent I need for my event?

    Tent size depends on your guest count, seating arrangement, and the additional features you want beneath the tent. Round tables, rectangular tables, theater-style seating, buffet tables, bars, staging, and dance floors all affect the amount of space required.


    Call our office or use our online contact form, and our team will help determine which tent size is suitable for your event. The tent size guide below can help you begin planning.

  • What size tent do I need for 50 guests?

    A starting tent size for 50 guests depends on your seating layout:


    A 20-by-30-foot tent accommodates approximately 56 guests at rectangular tables.

    A 20-by-40-foot tent accommodates approximately 64 guests at round tables.

    A 20-by-20-foot tent accommodates approximately 60 guests with theater-style seating.


    You may need a larger tent when adding a dance floor, staging, buffet tables, a bar, gift tables, or other event equipment. Contact our team with your guest count and planned layout for a more accurate recommendation.
