How many folding tables should a banquet hall own?

A banquet hall should own enough tables to seat 110%–125% of its maximum rated occupancy — the extra tables allow for different configurations, head tables, DJ and service tables, and replacements for damaged units. For a 200-person capacity hall using 60" rounds (seat 8 each), that means 28–32 round tables. Rectangle tables for buffet lines add to the total. Matching table carts allow efficient storage.
