Real Reviews from Local Customers

We hired a cool room, dance floor, outdoor furniture, umbrellas, lawn games, tables etc for our wedding in Nov 2025. The team at Mullum hire are amazing. I can’t thank them enough. The entire process from booking through to pack down and collection was seamless. The hire equipment is great quality and well priced, especially when compared with other vendors I contacted. The team are professional, helpful and easy to deal with, nothing was a drama for them. I couldn’t be happier with how everything went. It was fantastic to be able to get all our hire from the one place. It made the day so seamless. Thank you all so much! I would highly recommend!

We used the Mullum Hire team for our at-home wedding earlier this month. Everything from the marquee and lighting to the knives and forks was sourced from the Mullum Hire team, and they were absolutely incredible to deal with. They consulted and advised me on the best options for our wedding venue, as well as looked over things like our seating chart to ensure that everything would fit perfectly. On bump-in day, the team were super friendly and helpful, and willing to assist in any way they could. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Mullum Hire team! Thank you again! 🥰

Five black stars in a row.

We used Mullum Hire as our one-stop-shop hire company for our wedding in Bangalow, and they were fantastic. Terry and the team were incredibly helpful, flexible and capable, resulting in a hassle free and really calming experience in the lead up to the event. They communicated very well throughout, and the set up and bump out were smooth and uncomplicated. Highly recommend their services to anyone doing an event of any scale, as they will do whatever they can to get it just right.
