Tables
48-inch Round Table Rentals
The small banquet round — for a tight room, for six to a table rather than eight or for a client who wants more conversation clusters instead of fewer large ones.

Specifications
Order a 120-inch round, not a 108.
A 120-inch cloth reaches the floor all the way round; a 108 stops short and puts the steel frame on show at every setting. The top itself is moulded plastic rated to 330 lb, which is more than a full setting and a centrepiece will ever ask of it.

Where the small round wins
Six rooms that do not want a 60.
Wedding receptions in a tight room
Where the pillar spacing or the dance floor leaves no clean line for larger rounds. Budget roughly 100 sq ft per table once its chairs and its share of the walkway are counted.
Gala dinners
Six to a table puts everybody within speaking distance of everybody else, which is the argument for the smaller round and the reason some clients specify it over a bigger one.
Awards banquets
More tables means more table numbers and more places to seat a sponsor at the front. The layout gets finer control than a room of large rounds allows.
Community dinners
Long service, a wide age range and a room that has to be cleared the same night. The moulded handle and the folding frame are what make the clear-down quick.
Cocktail lounges with seated pockets
A few seated tables at the edge of a standing room, for guests who need to sit down. At 48 inches they take a group without becoming a dining area in the middle of a reception.
Cake and coffee stations
Where the same table takes eight rather than six because nothing is plated. That second figure is a layout, not a margin of error on the first one.
Six per table
The chairs that go round it.
A 48-inch round takes six of the white resin chairs. The two travel on one delivery. Order the tables first: the chair count falls out of them rather than the other way round.
