How should weight be distributed on a folding table?

Weight on a folding table should be distributed as evenly as possible across the surface. Concentrating heavy loads in the center of an 8-foot table without center support causes flexing and can damage the top surface or core. Use a center leg support for very heavy loads in the middle of long tables. Never exceed the table's rated weight capacity. For catering, distribute food dishes, warmers, and serving equipment across the full table length. OfficeFurniture2go.com — call 1-800-460-0858.
