A Bunnings trestle table is a portable, foldable table sold at Bunnings Warehouse across Australia, designed for versatile use both indoors and outdoors. Its lightweight frame and durable tabletop make it ideal for events, workshops, DIY projects, and additional dining or work surfaces. In simple terms, it’s a reliable solution when extra table space is needed, whether for casual family gatherings, garden parties, craft stations, or professional setups. The main reason Australians love these tables is their combination of practicality, affordability, and portability, making them a go-to solution for both temporary and semi-permanent uses.
Bunnings trestle tables come in a variety of styles and sizes to suit different needs:
Standard Folding Trestle Tables
Typically available in 4 ft and 6 ft lengths with a sturdy blow-moulded tabletop and powder-coated steel legs.
Perfect for events, buffets, craft areas, or extra dining space.
Multi-Height Adjustable Trestle Tables
Tables like the 5 ft Marquee model allow height adjustment from low table to bench or bar height.
Offers flexibility for workshops, parties, or outdoor use.
Lightweight Bi-Fold Tables
Compact 4 ft options with easy fold-flat design, carrying handles, and lockable legs.
Ideal for quick setup at picnics, markets, kids’ parties, or camping.
Heavy-Duty & Long-Format Tables
Longer tables with reinforced legs and thicker tops handle bigger gatherings and heavier loads.
Useful for workshops, home studios, or community events.
Outdoor/UV-Protected Tables
Some trestle tables feature UV-stabilised surfaces, making them suitable for garden use or alfresco dining.
Here’s why Australians love the variety: these tables adapt to multiple scenarios — from casual family use to large events — and remain easy to store and transport.
Selecting the right table involves considering size, purpose, and durability:
Identify the Intended Use
Events & Parties: Larger 6 ft tables provide ample space for buffets or communal dining.
Outdoor Activities: UV-protected models withstand sunlight and light rain.
Workshops/DIY Projects: Heavy-duty tables support tools, art supplies, and craft materials.
Consider Size & Capacity
Lengths typically range from 4 ft to 6 ft, with larger tables accommodating more people or larger items.
Check Adjustability
Adjustable-height tables are versatile for seating, standing work, or multi-use environments.
Portability & Storage
Fold-flat designs with lockable legs and carry handles make transportation and storage simple.
Material & Durability
Blow-moulded or HDPE tops resist stains, moisture, and UV exposure.
Steel or aluminium frames provide stability and longevity.
Weight Considerations
Lightweight tables are easier to move but may be less stable under heavy loads.
By reviewing purpose, size, material, and portability, you can choose a trestle table that meets both functional and practical needs.
