The Perched Event Hire Guide • Costs, Booking and Delivery

Straight answers to the questions people ask before hiring event furniture in Trinidad & Tobago: what it costs, how booking works, delivery, and what happens if plans change.

Cost and booking

How much does it cost to hire event furniture in Trinidad & Tobago?

Every item is priced on its own, per day of hire, in Trinidad and Tobago dollars. A single chair costs from $18 TTD per day, most tables cost $150 to $375 TTD each, a modular sofa costs from $300 TTD for one piece to $2,200 TTD for a five-piece layout, and tents and domes start at $1,000 TTD. Prices exclude delivery and set-up, the minimum order is $1,000 TTD delivered or $650 TTD if you collect it yourself, and a 50% down payment and a separate $500 TTD refundable security deposit apply.

How does booking with Perched work?

Every Perched order starts as a quote request. Our team checks availability, emails you a confirmation with the final quote, then you pay a 50% non-refundable down payment and a separate $500 TTD refundable security deposit, receive a balance invoice before your event, and pay the balance on or before delivery. You can book online from 4 months ahead until 24 hours before your event.

What do delivery, set-up and collection cost?

Perched has no fixed delivery price. Delivery and set-up are quoted for each order as a round-trip fee based on the time and location of the delivery, and the figure appears only in your quote. Normal hours are Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and collecting it yourself lowers the minimum order from $1,000 TTD to $650 TTD.

What happens if I cancel, or something is damaged?

You need to give at least 48 hours notice to cancel for any refund, and the 50% down payment is always non-refundable. The $500 TTD security deposit covers damage and, for DIY collection, late returns, and you are responsible for damaged or missing items. Refunds or credit are not issued for items ordered but not used.

Requesting a quote - what happens next?

We require a 50% non-refundable downpayment to secure all orders. The balance payment is due prior to the date of your event, once your final invoice is sent to you. All balance payments must therefore be made prior to, or upon the delivery of your items at your venue.

Purchase orders are accepted only from registered companies that hold an account with Perched. Account holders can secure an order with a purchase order and pay the balance within 30 days of the event.

We also ask for a standard refundable $500 TTD security deposit. The security deposit is separate from the order total and the down payment. It must be paid before items are delivered and is refunded at the end of the calendar month, once all items have been returned in good order.

All orders require our approval once a reservation request is made via the website. Once an order is placed, we will check the availability of your required items, following which you will receive an email confirmation detailing the final quote and the required 50% deposit amount.

Instructions will be provided regarding how to pay the deposit within this order confirmation email also. Your order will not be confirmed until you have received a confirmation email and you have informed us how you prefer to complete deposit payment.

Prior to your event, you will receive a further email requesting the balance of payment.

Delivery costs will be calculated based upon your order and will only be provided within the quote following your reservation request.

All equipment must be returned to the place of delivery.

Online bookings can be made up to 4 months before your event but no earlier than 24 hours in advance. Any requests outside of this time period must be made outside of our automated booking system by calling +1 (868) 395-4880 or emailing hello@perched.tt.
