Everything you need to know about renting chairs, tables, and tablecloths from Simply Seated Co in Lewis Center, Ohio.
For most events, we recommend booking 2–4 weeks in advance. That gives us time to confirm your inventory and coordinate delivery.
If your event falls during graduation season (May–June), book 6–8 weeks ahead. Demand for chair and table rentals across Delaware County — especially in the Olentangy, Big Walnut, and Westerville school district areas — spikes heavily in late spring. Our inventory fills up fast during that stretch.
Baby showers and birthday parties outside of peak season can typically be booked with 1–2 weeks' notice, but earlier always ensures better availability.
Fill out our free online quote form. Tell us your event date, city, guest count, and what items you need — we'll get back to you typically within 24 hours, often the same day.
Once we confirm availability and agree on details, we'll walk you through next steps to lock in your date. No commitment until you're ready.
Yes — guest lists change, and we get it. We're flexible on quantity adjustments up to about a week before your event, subject to inventory availability. Just reach out as soon as possible if your headcount shifts.
If you need to cancel, reach out as soon as possible and we'll work with you on a fair resolution. The more notice you can give us, the more flexibility we have. Contact us directly and we'll walk you through our current policy.
We offer delivery and pickup throughout our Central Ohio service area. We schedule a window that works around your event, drop off the equipment, and return after your event for pickup. You never have to load a chair into your car.
Delivery pricing is based on distance and order size — it's included in your quote so there are no surprises.
We're based in Lewis Center, Ohio and currently deliver to:
Not on the list? Contact us anyway — we may still be able to accommodate your event.
Setup and breakdown services are available — just let us know when you request your quote. Some customers handle their own layout once the equipment is delivered; others want us to handle everything start to finish. Either works for us.
Accidents happen at events — we understand. We ask that all items be returned in the same general condition as delivered. If something is damaged, reach out to us directly and we'll handle it fairly and transparently.
A good rule of thumb: match your confirmed RSVPs and add a 10–15% buffer. If 80 guests confirmed, rent 90–95 chairs. Always better to have extras than to scramble on event day.
For graduation parties specifically, guests often cycle in and out throughout the day rather than all sitting at once. For a 100-guest grad party, 60–70 chairs is often plenty — depending on your layout and whether it's a sit-down dinner or a drop-in style party.
Tell us your event type and guest count when you request a quote and we'll give you a personalized recommendation.

Yes — our folding chairs work great both indoors and outdoors. For backyard graduation parties, patio events, and park pavilion gatherings throughout Lewis Center and Delaware County, white or black folding chairs are our most-rented option. They're sturdy, easy to arrange on grass or concrete, and hold up well in typical Ohio spring and summer conditions.
Divide your guest count by the seats per table, then add 1–2 extra for the buffet, gift station, and cake table.
Example: 80 guests ÷ 8 seats per 60" round = 10 round tables for seating, plus 2 rectangular tables for food and gifts. That's a very common setup for graduation parties and baby showers in the Lewis Center and Powell area.
We'll help you plan the right quantities when you submit your quote request.
