Armless plastic chairs for big guest lists
Seating three hundred people is a cost question before it is a style question. These armless plastic chairs answer it. One moulded piece, no arms, and the lowest price per seat we have. Without arms the chairs close up shoulder to shoulder, so a row holds more people in the same width, and that makes them the working chair for church services, AGMs, funerals, graduations, school prize days and children's parties. Rows facing a pulpit? Fine. A ring around a buffet table? Also fine. Supreme Industries sells its version for indoor and outdoor use, so a lawn or a car park suits it too.
How much does it cost to hire plastic chairs?
KSh 50 hires one chair for 24 hours. The clock starts once the crew has finished setting out, not when the chairs arrive. Fifty come to KSh 2,500, a hundred to KSh 5,000 and three hundred to KSh 15,000, with bringing, placing and taking away already inside those figures. Only the trip is extra. It depends on how far your venue is from our yard in Uthiru on Waiyaki Way, and the quote shows it before you pay. A 50% deposit holds the date. Need them for a two-day conference or a weekend funeral programme? Say so when you ask, because longer hire is quoted up front.
Plastic chair size: what the makers publish
Makers publish the size of this kind of chair, and they agree closely. Kenpoly, the Kenyan maker, gives its two armless Kenchair models as 83.8 cm and 87.5 cm tall, 42.5 cm and 46 cm wide, and 52 to 54 cm deep; Supreme Industries in India lists its armless Swan chair at 87 cm tall, 45.5 cm wide and 48 cm deep. Three models, all within about 4 cm of each other. None of them prints a seat height. Our stock may not be any of those three models either, so if a figure matters, ask and we measure a chair for you. Supreme describes its model as stackable, and Kenpoly moulds its 2006 model from polypropylene and sells it in packs of fifteen.
How many plastic chairs fit in a 100-seater tent?
A hundred, in rows. The 100-seater high-peak tent covers a floor of 5 by 10 m, and ten chairs at 42.5 to 46 cm wide fill only 4.3 to 4.6 m of that width, leaving a strip to walk along the side. Dinner is different. At tables the same tent takes about fifty, because each table and the space to pull a chair out eat the floor. For a hundred guests eating, plan on 13 plain round tables for eight; with the chairs that is KSh 11,500 before transport.
Plain, dressed, or a mix of chairs
Want covers? The same chair in a fitted white cover with a sash is the dressed plastic chair (KSh 100 per chair), and it is the one to book if you were planning to decorate plastic chairs for a wedding or a ruracio yourself. A programme can mix seats. Plastic for the congregation; padded chameleon chairs for the speakers, the family, or anyone sitting through a long afternoon. A fireside lounge corner wants the canvas safari chair instead. And a plastic chair that folds flat is a separate design: the white folding Wimbledon chair.
Colours, and plastic chairs near you
People search for black plastic chairs as well as white. Ask before you build a colour scheme around them: tell us what you need, and we confirm what is free on your date rather than promise a colour from a picture. We deliver across Nairobi and Kiambu. Every other everyday seat, from padded chairs to bar stools, sits in our standard seating range, while the full collection of styles is on the event chairs page.

Customer reviews
How reviews workWhat makes a helpful review
- What the event was, and for how many guests
- How it looked on the day — a photo says the most
- Delivery, setup and collection
Thank you!
- Our team reads it.
- It appears on this page — photos once they are checked.
- If we reply, you'll see our reply under your review.
Questions about this item
No questions yet. Ask anything — sizes, colours, how many you need for your guests, delivery to your area. We answer here, usually within a day.
How reviews work on Sherehe
- Every review is read by our team. We publish good and bad reviews alike — a low star rating is never a reason to hold one back.
- If we have not got to it, a review publishes by itself after 2 days — unless it contains a link, a phone number or words that need a look. Photos always wait for a person.
- Confirmed hire means we matched the review to a real Sherehe booking.
- If we ever correct a review — for example to remove a phone number — it says Edited by Sherehe.
- Nobody is paid or given a discount for a review. If that ever changes, the review will say so.
- Reviewers' contact details are never shown. Visitors can report anything that breaks these rules; reported items go back to our team.
Plastic chair hire, answered
How much to rent plastic chairs per day?
KSh 50 per chair for a 24-hour hire, delivered, set out and collected. A hundred come to KSh 5,000; transport is added by distance.
Where can I hire plastic chairs near me?
We deliver across Nairobi and Kiambu from Uthiru. Choose your area on the quote to see the transport price first.
Do these plastic chairs have arms?
No. They are armless, so rows close up and more people fit across the same width.
Can I get them with covers?
Yes: book the dressed plastic chair, the same chair in a fitted white cover and a sash, at KSh 100 per chair.
Do you have black plastic chairs?
Ask us with your date and the number you need, and we confirm the colours that are free.
Is there a discount for a large order?
Ask us with your guest count; the quote shows the price for your order before you pay anything.
Can I change my order after paying the deposit?
Yes, and the earlier the better — please give us at least 48 hours where you can. Additions are subject to what is in stock and are invoiced separately; last-minute additions are never guaranteed. Reductions are where it gets more complicated: once we have committed stock, crew and transport to your event, a reduction of more than 10% may not reduce the price proportionally, and customised items already made cannot normally be cancelled.
What happens if something gets damaged or goes missing?
Tell us straight away — do not try to fix it or set it aside quietly, because that usually makes it worse. Ordinary wear and tear is expected and is never charged. Beyond that, you are responsible for loss or damage while items are in your care: broken chairs, tables or glassware, damaged décor, burns, torn fabric, permanent staining, lost cushions, missing tent components, and damage caused by guests or by moving things without permission. Where something is repairable we charge the reasonable repair cost; where it is lost or beyond economical repair, the reasonable replacement cost. We can provide photographic or inventory evidence where it is needed.
