Custom Table Cover Sizes: 4 ft, 6 ft or 8 ft? Straight vs Stretch

Updated October 2026

Short answer: match the cover to your table length. 6 ft is the most common trade show table. Choose stretch fit for a tight, modern look or straight fit for a classic drape. Choose closed back if people will see the table from behind, open back if you need to reach stock under it. Packeze custom table covers cost $193–$305.20.

Which size do you need?

4 ft: fits a folding table 4 ft (48") long. Typical uses include registration desks and small displays.
6 ft: fits a folding table 6 ft (72") long. The standard trade show table.
8 ft: fits a folding table 8 ft (96") long. Ideal for larger booths and conferences.

Most rectangular folding tables are 30" wide and 30" tall whatever their length. Measure your table before ordering — venues often supply 6 ft or 8 ft tables, so check with the organizer.

Straight fit or stretch fit?

Straight fit

Look: classic, polished drape to the floor.
Wrinkles: drapes loosely.
Best for: traditional booths and banquets.

Stretch fit

Look: tight and tailored, follows the table's shape.
Wrinkles: pulls taut, so creases show less.
Best for: modern booths and outdoor events where wind catches loose fabric.

Open, closed or zipper back?

Open back: covered on three sides. Choose it when you stand behind the table and need to reach boxes and stock.
Closed back: covered on all four sides. Choose it when the table is visible from every side, e.g. in an island booth.
Zipper back: four sides, with a zip on the back. Choose it when you want it to look closed but still reach underneath.
