Charger Rentals in Metro Detroit

Charger plates are large, decorative pieces of dinnerware that serve as the foundation for a place setting. Charger plate rentals should not be confused with dinner plates; they do not actually hold the food but rather provide an attractive base for the other dishes being served. Meal plates are placed on top of the charger plate rental and removed once finished, leaving a clean, elegant table setting. Chargers also protect the table and linens from any drips or spills, so you're left with a clean, crumb-free table setting even after a meal.

Charger plate rentals also ensure that spills don’t stain the gorgeous linens. Other times, a napkin may be placed on a charger rental, and it can be used as a platter to serve appetizers.

A charger plate rental is typically used to hold the other dining plates that are served with food at your event. A platter usually holds appetizers, desserts, or main entrees at a party.

However, a charger can still be used as a platter when covered with a napkin or another plate.
