Giant Garden Chess Hire Reading | Delivered & Set Up

Reading marks the eastern limit of our patch, about 28 miles from our Faringdon base, and we serve the town properly rather than skirting it. Deliveries run across RG1, RG2, RG4, RG6 and RG30, which covers the centre, Caversham, Whitley, Earley and Tilehurst, with Calcot and Purley-on-Thames on the way in. As everywhere, your hire price includes delivery, set up and collection by us.

Reading is about 28 miles from our Faringdon base, comfortably inside our free delivery area, so set up and collection are included like everywhere else.

The giant chess that Reading books

A full giant chess set with its own board mat, laid out on your lawn, terrace or hall floor by us. It photographs beautifully, it slows a party down in the best way, and someone always ends up carrying the queen around.

Some hires make noise, this one makes a scene. A giant chess set turns a quiet corner of lawn into the most photographed square metre of the party. Guests who have not played since school suddenly have opinions about openings, kids commandeer the knights, and the board keeps drawing people in from the first drink to the last dance.

Venues around Reading

Reading offers everything from terraced-house gardens in RG30 to church halls in Caversham, community venues out towards the university, and function rooms in town near the Abbey ruins and Forbury Gardens. Urban venues sometimes mean parking permits, loading bays and lift access, so give us the practical details in the booking notes and we will plan the get-in like locals.

Why book local in Reading

In a big town the marketplaces are noisiest and the no-shows most common. We are the opposite of anonymous: one van from Faringdon, one owner who checked and loaded your kit, one agreed slot, and one person to hold to it. A small operation, which is exactly the point.
