How to Stack Banquet Chairs
Banquet chairs have padded seats and backs mounted on metal frames. If you try to stack banquet chairs directly on top of one another, they will be hard to move and will eventually tip over. Because of how banquet chairs are designed, they shift a couple of inches forward as each layer is stacked. Using a stacking dolly with wheels makes the chairs easier to stack, store and move. Does this Spark an idea?

Wipe any debris or spilled food off the chairs with the damp cloth before stacking. Storing the chairs with food on them can cause damage to the upholstery or the painted frames.

Put the first chair on the stacking dolly, which should be on a flat surface. Make sure the legs are seated correctly in the dolly's frame. The chair should be steady if you try to rock it. If the first chair is not seated correctly in the frame, the whole pile is likely to tip over when the chairs are stacked.

Tips & Warnings
Make sure the dolly is on a flat surface and that the wheels will be able to roll over any bumps on the floor with ease. It will be heavy when it is loaded, so checking before loading the dolly will save headaches later.
Dollies with flat, level bases will usually hold fewer chairs than dollies with tipped bases. A flat-base dolly will usually hold up to 10 banquet chairs while a tipped- base dolly can usually hold up to 25 chairs.
Use a higher, large-wheeled dolly for stacking banquet chairs. The higher base and large wheels make it easier to move the stacked chairs.
