    Due to start the clock

    The clock starts when your deposit has arrived and the agreement is signed. If we cannot confirm your crew, everything comes back.

    Arrived means your card is captured or your transfer has posted. Recruiting starts then, not before. Cancel more than 72 hours before call time and the deposit comes back; inside 72 hours it is forfeited, and inside 24 hours the full booking is billed at the card rates for the booked hours, 4-hour minimum. Headcount locks 72 hours before call time: reductions inside 72 hours are billed as booked.

    This range is an estimate built from your inputs and your market's current rates, with an allowance of up to 10% for hours and headcount. Your written quote is itemized and confirmed by a person within 2 hours. Hours a worker exceeds 40 in TWF's workweek bill at 1.5x the card rate for that role. Gratuity is not included and never added unless you ask. It is optional; customary guidance is 15 to 20 percent of staffing.

    Fair Questions Before You Book

    How fast will you respond to my request?

    We respond within 2 hours. For urgent needs, use our emergency staffing line. Contracted clients within 45 minutes of Greenville, NC get our 90-minute deployment. In every Southeast market you get a local bench and a coordinator on the phone within two hours, and contracted clients get a confirm-or-decline within four hours on requests inside three days, where the local bench allows.

    How much does event staffing cost?

    Every market has its own rates, built from what a trained hospitality professional earns there. The calculator at the top of this page prices your event at your market's current rates, and our rates page shows the starting rates for each of our Southeast markets. Your exact quote comes in writing before anything is booked.

    Is there a fee for short notice?

    Only for per-engagement (one-off) bookings inside 48 hours of call time: the greater of $150 or 25% of the booked staffing at card rates for the booked hours, and 40% inside 24 hours. Nine or more people inside 48 hours is a custom quote, and a person calls within the hour. It comes with a 4-hour minimum, a 50% deposit and a signed Rapid Deployment Agreement, and the clock starts when your deposit and fee have arrived and the agreement is signed. If we cannot confirm your crew, everything comes back. Contracted clients never pay it. How rapid deployment works.

    What if I cancel, or my event falls on a holiday?

    On a per-engagement booking the 50% deposit is refundable if you cancel more than 72 hours before call time and forfeited inside 72 hours; inside 24 hours the full booking is billed at the card rates for the booked hours, 4-hour minimum. Headcount locks 72 hours before call time, so reductions inside 72 hours are billed as booked. Contracted clients cancelling inside 24 hours are billed at the 4-hour minimum. Ten holidays bill at 1.5x the card rate on every line, and the staff are paid 1.5x: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year's Eve. The calculator applies the holiday rate when your event date is on the list. Hours a worker exceeds 40 in TWF's workweek bill at 1.5x the card rate for that role.

    Can I turn my estimate into an agreement?

    Yes. In the calculator, choose Turn this estimate into a draft agreement. The agreement builder drafts the document from your estimate, a person at TWF reviews it and calls you, and nothing is sent for signature until TWF approves it. Our W-9 and certificate of insurance come with every approved agreement.

    What areas do you serve?

    Greenville, North Carolina is home base. We keep a local bench in each of our Southeast markets: Greenville, Raleigh and Charlotte in North Carolina, Charleston and Columbia in South Carolina, and Atlanta and Savannah in Georgia. Our newest market is the Washington, DC metro (DMV), where a person quotes every event.

    What roles can you staff?

    Banquet servers, bartenders, barbacks, runners, bussers, setup and breakdown crews, and on-site captains who run the floor so your managers do not have to.
