New Inventory Available for the 2013 Season!

Part of remaining a relevant equipment rental provider is keeping current with industry trends. O'Neil Tents and Party Supplies is pleased to be the first tent rental company in the Columbus, Ohio market to offer curved beam structures.

Our inventory selection for clear span tents has followed the mold of peers in our industry: A frame structures that are engineered to be safe and leave as much unobstructed event space as possible for our customers. While these A frame clear spans work well, they can seem a little industrial, which isn't exactly what our gala and wedding customers are looking for. By adding the curved beam, you soften the look of the structure and achieve a result that is aesthetically pleasing as well as engineered for safety.

Our curved beam structures will be available in 49', 66' and 82' widths. Depending on popularity, we may expand that offering across all of our clear span rental inventory.

Please contact our sales team at 614-837-6352 to discuss how our NEW Curved Beam Clear Span Structures can work with your next event!

Road Trip!

Winter time in the tent business can be a very slow time of the year. Sure there are some smaller projects here and there, but more often than not, our guys are in the warehouse day after day doing maintenance and repairs. It gets a little monotonous.

If you are looking for some real action in the winter you have to go South, I don't mean Chillicothe South, I mean Dallas South. Last week, 6 of our guys loaded up the semi trailer and headed down to the Dallas/Fort Worth area to install an impressive 98'x328' structure as an exhibition hall. Personally, I think the guys set a record: 1 day to install the frame, 1 day to install all of the fabric. There is a reason we have some of the best installers in the business. Our customer had some tight time lines but we were able to get the job done in an effective amount of time. My hat is off to our our installers. Great work guys!

For more info about this, or any other structure, please visit us on the web at www.oneiltents.com.

Frame loaded and ready to go.

Safety first! Laying out the frame and staking the base plates.

All of the arches are up. Ready to connect the wind bracing cables.

Wintertime Wind Down

This time of year we have a handful of jobs being installed but the majority of the work being done by our crew is maintenance. In order to keep the highest quality of tents and party supplies available for your events, it is imperative to do this work.

Because our tents go out so much over the course of a summer, each tent top is inspected for any pin holes that can be patched, or if they just need a washing and some TLC, those needs are addressed. Most of our tables are being sanded and re-stained to keep them fresh as well. The items that are far past saving are either recycled or turned into another item that we may be able to use (60" round tables can be cut done to 48" round tables, etc...)

As I mentioned before, there are some projects going out but working with vinyl when it is this cold out can be a real pain. The vinyl loses its flexibility and to be honest, none of our crew really want to be out in single digit temperatures.

As the 2013 starts, we at O'Neil Tents would like to thank our customers in and around Columbus as well as other places for choosing us to be their event equipment rental provider. We have enjoyed working with you in the past and look forward to the opportunity to help you celebrate in the future!
