Musical Chairs

I used Musical Chairs twice in the past couple of months for two summer parties. They’re great because they also rent kids size tables and chairs. All the tables and chairs were in great condition, prices cheap, and staff very responsive. I’ll use them again and certainly recommend you try them out too for your smallest or largest party supply needs!

Musical Chairs was fast, easy and professional. They arrived right on time for delivery and pick up, worked fast and got out of there quick. I would recommend for any of your rental needs!

We had an excellent experience with Musical Chairs! I needed child sized tables and chairs for my daughter’s birthday party and those are not easy to find. Doug, the owner, had just what we needed and responded quickly to my request. The prices are very affordable, the tables and chairs were in excellent condition, and the pick up process was easy. I will tell all my mom-​friends that is the place to go!!!

I rented tables and chairs for forty, for a breakfast at my house. I dealt directly with Doug, the owner. He was courteous on email, phone, easy to work with.
He arrived on time, unloaded everything perfectly. He came and picked everything up on time as well. The chairs, linens and chairs were all in perfect shape. And the prices were good.
Really, you can’t ask for more.

Doug was great to work with. We’ll definitely use them again.

Doug is always a pleasure to work with at Musical Chairs. He offers the lowest prices I’ve ever seen and responds promptly! They are professional, keep to their delivery and pick up times, and their product is always in good condition. I will continue to use them for our corporate events and recently I’ve decided to use them for all my future personal events. Thanks Doug!

As an event planner, I’ve worked with many of the rental companies around town. I hadn’t heard of Musical Chairs until I was in need of a budget-​friendly alternative for a non-​profit client.
I called the week of the event, a very short timeline, but Doug was willing and able to bring me what I needed at a great price. He’s a bit of a curmudgeon, but I found him to be easy to deal with and very accommodating.
I needed 100 chairs, ten round tables, and a couple of 6′ tables for food. Everything arrived on time and as agreed.
I’ll definitely keep Musical Chairs on my short list of people to call — although I sure hope I can call earlier next time!

Doug is great! I am planning a baby shower and I gave him the wrong date, which I realized when the delivery man was trying to find our backyard. I called and apologized for giving him the wrong date. This slip is due to my pregnant brain. I told him to charge us at least for the delivery attempt and he graciously said don’t worry about it understanding that all people slip up! He is going out of his way to make sure we have the tables and chairs for our event at the end of the month. Very satisfied. ;)

Wow. I am so impressed with the folks from Musical Chairs. Planning a wedding can be stressful (thanks, Captain Obvious!) but Musical Chairs took a big item off my worry list – and boy, did they deliver.
First, I called and contacted via website – four «prestigious» party rental places. I refer to them as prestigious because they charge the most and have the haughtiest attitudes. None of them responded. NONE. I went to FB to ask friends for help, and heard a resounding, «Musical Chairs». They were great – and I sent my details…
First, he got back to me with an estimate within an hour. I spoke to him, worked out all details and price, and had it all locked in immediately.
Get this – I asked about a deposit, and he said, «no deposit – I find that to be insulting. Like I’ve already got a bad opinion of you and we’ve not even done business.»
That sealed it. Love his attitude. Wedding day – the deliver truck arrived to our site (technically East BFE) on time, was great, friendly, helpful and awesome. Pick up the next day – same. Their prices are terrific. I cannot recommend them more highly!!!

We used Musical Chairs as our tables/​chairs/​linens vendor for our wedding and I am SO HAPPY we did! Doug was fantastic. He was very VERY responsive, and flexible with us. We were very worried about the weather, and were unsure about whether we would need to change our plans to go indoors instead of outdoors for the wedding. I talked with Doug a few DAYS before the wedding and was terrible and changed the number of tables/​chairs/​linens again on him. He took it in stride, was so nice, did everything I asked, made some jokes that made my day! It really helped my peace of mind to have the right stuff, and for a really STRESSED OUT BRIDE, that was vital. They delivered them on Friday, and picked them back up on Sunday, so easy.
And — AND — AND — they are literally the most affordable tables/​chairs/​linen rentals in Austin. I did my research. This place has got the goods. And it was simple! So simple!
I really can’t recommend them enough. Musical Chairs and especially Doug are literally the best.

Doug is fantastic. Great prices with great service. This is my go to place for renting.

Musical Chairs was a good place to rent chairs for my wedding. I was using my venue’s chairs, but they only provided 90, so I ordered another 40 from Musical Chairs and was happy. The prices are right in line with the rest of Austin chair rental, and the chairs were in good condition.
A couple things:
— The chairs were delivered quite dirty, something I didn’t know until after the fact, but my husband and father-​in-​law had to wipe each one down by hand as they were very dusty.
— We stacked them back up to be picked up, but apparently one chair had been replaced with an «older, beat-​up, dirty» chair from another rental company. Since the chairs we rented did not in any way resemble the chairs my venue provided (I just dealt with the mis-​match and no one noticed), I have no idea how this happened. I think that there was a mixup with a prior event that MC worked, but the manager didn’t think that was a possibility.
No harm was done, we weren’t charged for the chair after the venue searched for it, but it was still an odd thing. Star deducted for the dirty chairs that we had to clean.

Rented a kid’s table, chairs and tablecloth for my daughter’s birthday. Doug was very accommodating arranging a return time for us! Great rates for what we wanted. I would definitely recommend this local company!

Musical Chairs is an exceptional rental company! Doug was so much fun to speak to and I actually enjoyed calling for the conversation and the rental!
He was able to accommodate our need for 40 kid’s chairs, at a reasonable price and on short notice. He really understands what customer service is all about!
We picked up our chairs since they are only 10 minutes away from our venue but, they had a really reasonable delivery fee should you need to utilize that option!
It was a holiday weekend (Labor Day) and we were supposed to return the chairs on Monday! We had a car key mix up and I spoke to Doug’s receiving guy and they were more than understanding. When I spoke to Doug on Tuesday morning I arranged to bring them back and he was very accommodating. I apologized hand over foot and he said don’t worry these things happen.
With corporate rental companies they most likely would have charged us another entire rental charge for returning them late but, they didn’t. Yet another reason to support local businesses like Musical Chairs! They understand that mistakes happen and even better they are accommodating to their customers!
We will be renting most of our rental items from Musical Chairs from now on thanks to this delightfully amazing experience! You really went above and beyond!
Thanks Doug!

Love, love, love these guys. They are efficient and friendly (and funny) and you get exactly what you order. Very easy to work with (good website with prices included).

Doug is great! On time, excellent communication and great products!!!

Doug is amazing. I didn’t end up using him after being told there would be chairs at the venue I was using — last minute — NO CHAIRS! He had a busy weekend but STILL made it happen for me. I am soooo grateful! Thank you, Doug! You have my undying gratitude and the gratitude of many backsides!

Doug is absolutely the best! He makes sure the equipment arrives on time and has a great crew helping out with delivery. I’ve had bad experiences with previous rental companies and Musical Chairs far exceeded my expectations. Doug matches and/​or beats prices in Austin and working with him has been a pleasure!
My company will continue to use him in the future for all our events.
Thanks a bunch!

Just a quick follow up note:
Doug did call me about 24 hours later and apologize, maybe he saw my Unilocal post, maybe he just felt bad. Either way I was impressed with the fact that he took the time make a call, not everyone has the guts to do such a thing. I more than likely still won’t be highly encouraged to look to musical chairs for business, but kudos to you Doug for doing the right thing.
On another note, the other place I got my tables from was about 50% higher in price than what the fellow on the phone quoted me at Musical Chairs. So I’m not suprised to see low price is something everyone is mentioning here.

We called Musical Chairs about a week before our event and he was able to get us the tables we needed and his prices beat the other rental places.
The drop off and pick up was extremely convenient. I highly recommend renting from them. We will certainly rent from them again for our next event.
