Indianapolis Tent Rental – Helpful Tips

Posted by: Gina on Nov 7, 2011

Many details may go overlooked when planning a tent event in Indianapolis or anywhere for that matter, simply because there are so many factors to consider. It’s important to discuss every detail with your event planner or representative at the tent rental company to ensure that nothing is forgotten, especially if this is your first time planning an event inside a tent.

Please note that we do not rent tents throughout the winter. All tent rentals will resume in April. However, for larger events it is ideal to begin planning ahead of time.

Here are 7 important tent atmosphere details to consider:

1. Tent Pole Drape Covers – This is an inexpensive way to dress up your tent without spending too much money.
2. Tent Water Barrel Covers – If your tent needed to be water barreled, tent water barrel covers are a necessity!
3. Tent Perimeter Lighting – If your event is in the evening, you will need lighting. Ask your party rental company what type of lighting your size tent will necessitate. Our perimeter lighting will work for tents up to about 40 x 40. If your tent is larger, you will need an extra lighting source. Try Evans Audio Visual
4. Tent Flooring – Tent flooring is only recommended for extremely large events, such as corporate galas or university graduations.
5. Tent heaters – If your event is in October through November, please consult your tent representative for the appropriate size heater. Indianapolis weather is too volatile to not consider heating options.
6. Fans- On the contrary, if your event is in the summer, fans will help circulate the air in a tent if you are using side walls. We can rent fans to you, or you can invest in a fan by purchasing from Costco, Wal-Mart, etc.
7. Drill & Fill Tent Filling – If your tent is was set up on the asphalt, tent hole filling will eliminate holes in the cement.
