What Greater Sudbury hires

A rink this week, a hall the next.

Most of the towns that make up this city share one kind of building: a community centre with an arena at one end and a hall at the other, and a floor that is ice for hockey one week and boarded over for a trade fair, a wedding or a graduation the next. The equipment a hire sends into that building has to suit whichever version of it is open. A queue at the skate rental and a receiving line at a dinner are both reasonable briefs for the same room, and a single order can hold both, as long as it is sorted by which weekend needs which.

Belt posts for the arena side

Retractable belts for ticketing, skate rental and the canteen, where the job is a moving queue and the look matters less.

Rope and carpet for the hall side

Polished posts with velvet rope and a runner at the entrance, once the floor is covered and the room is dressed for dinner.

Bases that suit both floors

Rubber matting, bare concrete, a covered ice pad and a hall floor each take a post differently, and the base is picked for the surface on the date.

Across the city

The core, the valley and the outlying towns.

Greater Sudbury is one municipality spread across a wide map, and its community centres sit in towns that are a real drive apart. An order here is planned by which centre it is going to and which side of the building is open. Delivery, setup and collection are quoted on separate lines, and a centre with a maintenance crew on site often takes a drop at the arena service door and handles the rest.

Drops go to the buildings Greater Sudbury gathers in:

  • the downtown arena and the community arenas in each town
  • the community centre halls in the valley and the west end
  • the university and college gyms and great halls
  • the science centre and the mining heritage grounds
  • the lakeside parks and the downtown square
  • the curling clubs and the church halls

Tell us which centre, which end of it and what the floor will be on the date, and the order goes out for that version of the building.

From community centres

What Greater Sudbury organisers ask first.

What will stanchion rental cost in Greater Sudbury?
The published rate covers two sets — gold post with velvet rope, black post with retractable belt — at $19 per day, $29 for three consecutive days and $39 weekly. Getting the posts to a centre in an outlying town, laying them out and bringing them back is quoted beside the rate rather than folded into it.
Can the same order work for a hockey tournament and a dinner?
Yes, if it is planned that way. Belt posts suit the arena queues and rope posts suit the hall, so an order covering both weekends lists each set against the date it is needed. Posts that are not in use stay stacked and are collected with the rest.
Will posts stand on a covered ice pad?
Yes, on the flooring laid over the ice, with bases chosen for it. A covered pad is flat but it is not a hall floor, and the covering can shift under a light base, so a long line there is specified with a heavier one. Say in the brief whether the ice is in or out.
Do you deliver to the outlying towns as well as the core?
Yes — Val Caron, Hanmer, Chelmsford, Lively, Capreol and the rest of the municipality are all on the delivery map. A hire that moves between two centres is quoted as one order with each drop listed.
Can we hire a red carpet for a graduation in an arena hall?
Yes. A red carpet runner travels with the posts on one order, and a velvet rope along each edge turns a hall entrance into an arrival. Say how long the entrance is and what the floor underneath is, because both change how the runner is laid.
