Hiring glasses in Northbridge
The Glassery is run out of Northbridge, so this is home. If you live here, hiring glasses from us is about as simple as it gets. You come and get them, you have your party, you bring them back dirty. No delivery fee, no minimum for pickup, no washing up.
We started because of exactly this. Someone up the road needed forty wine glasses for a sixtieth and the options were plastic, borrowing from three different households, or driving to a warehouse in the west. There is now a fourth option and it is five minutes away.
Local halls and venues
If you are hiring a room rather than using your own place, these are the ones people around Northbridge use most. None of them come with glassware.

Everything comes in crates, and everything comes back dirty. The range is the same wherever we deliver:
- Wine glasses, red and white, mostly Luigi Bormioli lead free crystal
- Champagne flutes for the toast, including Luigi Bormioli Palace flutes for the top table
- Highballs and pilsners for spirits, beer and water
- Trumpet and grappa glasses for the less obvious jobs
- A drink dispenser as an add-on
See the full range and prices, or send us your numbers and we will work out what you need.
How it works
- Tell us the date and the headcount. We come back with a quote, usually same day.
- We deliver, or you collect. Pickup from Northbridge is free. Delivery is $40 each way because you are inside our delivery area, on orders of $100 or more. Pickup has no minimum.
- Three days. Friday to Monday covers a Saturday party without anybody rushing.
- Send them back dirty. Do not wash them. That is the whole service.
