top 4 tips for choosing the right tent manufacturer

When it comes to rental tent manufacturers, not all companies are created equal. When a client decides to host an outdoor event, the rental tent supplied becomes the hub of the festivity, and not only does it need to be safe and reliably constructed, it also needs to be clean, created with impeccable design, and offer beautiful presentation, whether it’s for a stunning wedding, a crowd-rousing sports event, or a corporate convention. With so many commercial tent suppliers, how can you make sure you’re choosing the best for your upcoming function? Following are the top four tips for finding your event tent supplier.

  1. Experience is Key

Tent Supply - Experience Is KeyIn the wholesale tent or commercial tent industries, you don’t stay in business for long if you don’t know what you’re doing. Your search for a reputable tent manufacturer should include seeking out a company that’s been providing quality, dependable service for several years’ time. Not only will their consultants be able to answer your questions quickly and knowledgeably, they will readily offer suggestions and can easily estimate the size and design you’ll need for the type of event, the location, and even the season.

  1. Are They Responsive and Reliable?

Your decision-making process for the right tent manufacturer begins the minute you initiate contact. Does an actual person answer the phone? How timely are messages or emails returned? Do they provide an after-hours contact? Is there an emergency contact? If you experience difficulty in communicating with your commercial tent manufacturer immediately, expect that you’ll experience more of the same when it comes to your function. Do you want to worry about the reliability of the delivery or set up staff, or find that there was some miscommunication and your rentals were delivered elsewhere? A professional, experienced manufacturer  will treat your function as if it’s the only one on their schedule.

  1. Adaptable Designs

No two events are exactly alike, and the most capable, versatile tent manufacturer will be able to suggest various styles appropriate for each client’s function. Ask questions about other clients and industries they’ve served—are they able to meet the needs of a company similar to yours? How can they help keep it unique and match the vision you have in mind?

  1. Be Aware of All Fees Upfront

One major mistake that is often made when contracting for a service is not having a clear understanding of all of the fees that will be associated with the tents upfront; however, it’s also the job of the commercial tent manufacturer to make sure they are forthright and honest about what you can expect. Tent manufacturers with a firm financial foundation will have no problem providing you with competitive rates, and also with a clear estimate and contract to work with.
