Pole Tents: Tried and True Value, ROI and Rentability

The busy season is here! Are you fully stocked and ready to go? There are so many opportunities awaiting you, from graduation parties and gender reveals, to upscale weddings and summer festivals. While it’s important that you offer a wide variety of inventory to meet the needs of your customers, nothing beats the versatility and reliability of a pole tent. Here’s a few reasons why you should invest in some pole tents for your business!

Cost-Effective to Purchase and Maintain

Pole tents are typically less expensive up front than frame or structure tents. Their simpler design also means fewer components, which can reduce long-term maintenance and replacement costs.

Classic Aesthetic Appeal

Many clients love the traditional look of high peaks and sweeping lines. For weddings, festivals, and upscale outdoor events, pole tents often “sell themselves” visually.

Lighter Weight and Faster Setup

With experienced crews and the right conditions (i.e., grassy surfaces), pole tents can be installed relatively quickly compared to more complex structures. Their fewer parts and simplified rigging make for streamlined logistics.

Since pole tents use fabric tension and fewer rigid components, they’re lighter and easier to load, haul, and store. This can mean more tents per truckload, which is a bottom-line booster for rental companies.
