How to choose the right Disposable Cups and Glasses

• Start by estimating drink volumes at peak times so you can select cup and glass sizes that match your busiest service periods.
• Choose materials to suit your menu, using insulated or double-wall options for hot coffee and tea, and clear plastic for cold drinks and cocktails.
• Consider where you will serve, opting for tougher, shatter-resistant glasses for outdoor events, festivals and mobile bars.
• Match styles and colours to your brand or event theme, from simple white cups to clear or patterned glasses for a more premium look.
• Plan for takeaway and delivery by pairing cups with compatible lids, cup carriers and stirrers to keep drinks secure in transit.
• Check storage space and select stackable designs and case sizes that fit your stockroom or van layout.

Care and maintenance

• Store sleeves and boxes of cups and glasses in a clean, dry area away from moisture, heat sources and direct sunlight.
• Keep packaging sealed until needed to protect products from dust, pests and general kitchen contamination.
• Rotate stock using a first-in, first-out system so older packaging is used before newer deliveries.
• Train staff to handle stacks carefully to avoid crushing or deforming cups and glasses before service.
• Provide clearly marked waste and recycling points so used disposables are collected safely and disposed of correctly.
• Regularly review usage levels to avoid over-ordering and to ensure you always have the right sizes and styles in stock.

Complete your setup with complementary ranges such as disposable food packaging, plates and cutlery, straws and stirrers, and barware for a fully equipped service area.
