Walkie Talkie Rental · Los Angeles
Walkie talkie rentals in Los Angeles.
20- and 30-radio packages for weddings, events, catering teams, production crews, parking and venue staff — numbered radios, charging systems, channel setup and transport cases.
When a crew is spread across a venue, phones stop working as a coordination tool. Calls go unanswered because nobody hears a phone in a loud room, texts get read late, and reaching six people means six separate messages. A radio reaches everyone at once, and the person who needs to act hears it immediately.
We rent Retevis RT22 FRS two-way radios in 20- and 30-unit packages for weddings, events, catering operations, production crews and temporary business operations across Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley. The radios are compact and easy to carry, which matters when staff are wearing them for eight hours.

Who uses them
Radio rentals for event and production teams
Wedding planners & coordinators
A large wedding has a planner, a venue contact, catering, parking, transportation and several vendor teams all running to the same timeline in different parts of a property. Radios let a coordinator move a cue — dinner service, the entrance, the first dance — without texting six people individually and hoping they all check a phone.
Venue & hospitality teams
Venue managers, front-of-house and hospitality staff covering entrances, guest areas and back-of-house at the same time. Radios matter most in properties where staff are genuinely out of sight of each other — estates, multi-room venues and anywhere with grounds.
Catering & service teams
Catering operations run between a kitchen, service corridors, bars, loading areas and the guest room, often with the kitchen nowhere near where the food is served. A team lead can call for the next course or flag a delay without walking the route to do it.
Production, AV & stage crews
Lighting, audio and video crews during load-in, rehearsal, show and strike, plus stage managers calling cues. Numbered radios make distribution and check-in across a crew straightforward, which matters when equipment is moving between several hands over a long day.
Security, parking & valet
Parking attendants, valet teams and security personnel are usually the furthest from the event itself and the least reachable by phone. Radios keep arrival flow, guest movement and any issue at the perimeter connected to whoever is running the event inside.
Film, photo & multi-day productions
Film and video production, photo shoots, corporate productions and multi-day builds, where crews change across days and equipment has to be signed in and out. Multi-day rental is available by quote for productions, festivals and conferences.
Weddings
Walkie talkie rentals for weddings
A large wedding can involve dozens of people working in different areas at the same time — planners, venue staff, catering, parking, transportation, security, photography, and the lighting and audio crews. Most of them need the same information at the same moment: the ceremony is running late, the entrance is happening now, dinner service can begin.
Radios are most valuable at estate weddings, outdoor venues and large properties, where staff genuinely cannot see each other and walking between areas costs minutes the timeline does not have. If we are already providing your sound, lighting or DJ and MC, radios can be added to the same booking rather than sourced separately.
What’s included
What comes with a radio rental
Numbered radios. Each unit is individually numbered so distribution and return are simple to track across a crew.
Charging systems. Multi-radio charging equipment is included with the package.
Basic channel setup. Radios are prepared before the rental so the crew can pick them up and use them.
Transport cases. Equipment arrives organised for distribution rather than loose in a box.
Delivery and pickup are available across our service area and charged separately. Charges typically start around $100–$200+, depending on the event location, travel distance, delivery schedule, venue access, pickup time and any parking or loading requirements. Late-night pickup or strike may cost additional.
Terms
Multi-day rentals and equipment responsibility
Multi-day rentals are available by quote for productions, festivals, conferences, corporate events, multi-day weddings and temporary business operations. Send your dates and the radio quantity you need and we will confirm availability.
The renter is responsible for the equipment while it is in their possession. Lost or damaged radios, batteries, chargers, charging docks, earpieces and cases may be subject to replacement charges. Because every radio is numbered, checking equipment out to a crew and back in at the end of the event is straightforward.
Los Angeles & the San Fernando Valley
Two way radio rentals in Los Angeles
We are based in the Tarzana area of the San Fernando Valley and provide radio rentals for events and temporary operations across our service area. Customers search for this as walkie talkie rental or two way radio rental — it is the same service, and the packages above cover both.
Renting rather than buying makes sense for equipment most organisations use occasionally: a fleet that sits in a cupboard for eleven months still needs charging, maintenance and replacing. Radios are frequently booked alongside our AV equipment rental and event production services, or with corporate event production for conferences and multi-room programmes.
FAQ
Walkie talkie rental questions
How much does it cost to rent 20 walkie talkies?
Our 20-radio package is $375 per event before delivery, pickup and optional accessories. It includes 20 numbered radios, a charging system, basic channel setup and a transport case.
How much does it cost to rent 30 walkie talkies?
Our 30-radio package is $525 per event before delivery, pickup and optional accessories, with numbered radios, charging systems, basic channel setup and transport cases included.
Can I rent walkie talkies with earpieces?
Yes. A 20-radio package with 20 compatible earpieces is $475, and a 30-radio package with 30 earpieces is $650. Earpieces suit planners, coordinators, security and catering leads who need to hear traffic without the radio being audible to guests.
What type of walkie talkies do you rent?
Our fleet uses Retevis RT22 FRS two-way radios. They are compact and light enough to clip and forget about, which matters for staff who are on their feet for a full event.
Are the radios numbered?
Yes. Each radio is individually numbered, which makes distributing them to a crew and accounting for them at the end of the night far easier than handing out identical units.
Do the walkie talkies come charged?
The rental package includes charging equipment, and radios are prepared for the scheduled rental period. For long or multi-day events, plan where the charging system will live so radios can be rotated through it.
Do you provide walkie talkie rentals for weddings?
Yes, and it is one of the most common uses. Wedding planners, venue teams, catering staff, parking attendants, security and production crews all benefit, particularly at estate and outdoor venues where staff are spread across a property.
Do you provide two way radio rentals in Los Angeles?
Yes — walkie talkie rental and two way radio rental describe the same service, and customers search for it both ways. We provide temporary radio packages for events and other short-term communication needs across our Los Angeles service area.
Can I rent the radios for several days?
Yes. Multi-day rentals are available by quote for productions, festivals, conferences, corporate events, multi-day weddings and temporary business operations. Send your dates and the quantity you need.
Is delivery included?
Delivery and pickup are charged separately. Charges typically start around $100–$200+ and depend on the event location, travel distance, delivery schedule, venue access, pickup time and any parking or loading requirements. Late-night pickup or strike may cost additional.
Can I rent a different number of radios?
Our standard packages are 20 and 30 radios. If your event needs a different quantity, contact us with the details and we will confirm what is available for your date.
What happens if a radio is lost or damaged?
The renter is responsible for the equipment while it is in their possession. Lost or damaged radios, batteries, chargers, charging docks, earpieces and cases may be subject to replacement charges. Because every radio is numbered, check-out and check-in are straightforward.
