Rent a folding chair from a neighbor near you
Forty chairs for one afternoon is the definition of a rental. Party stores have minimums and delivery fees; a neighbor with a stack in the garage has neither.

Renting a folding chair: common questions
Is there a minimum order?
No. Book what the neighbor lists, whether that is six chairs or sixty.
How does the security deposit work?
It is a hold on your card sized to the item’s declared value, never a charge. It releases automatically 72 hours after you return the item, unless the owner files a damage claim within that window.
