What do I need to do to reserve a bounce house?
What type of deposit is required Due to some recent last minute cancellations we now require a deposit for all reservations. A 30% charge will be assessed if a reservation is cancelled and the item could not be re-scheduled for the same date. Cancellations made more than 7 days in advance will not be charge the deposit What is the delivery charge....
What kind of area can bouncers be set up in? Pick out a level grassy area, while we can put it in a dirt yard we do charge an additional $15 due to the dust created provide at least a 15x15 with at least 20 foot overhead clearance (no branches or power lines). Make sure it's within 100 feet of a power source. Back to the top Can bounce houses be setup on pavement (i.e. cul-de-sacs) or driveways? Yes, but please let
us know ahead of time so we can bring sandbags to hold it down with.
Back to the top Yes, the blower keeps the inflatable inflated. As long as all riders have exited safely, the blower can be unplugged to deflate the bouncer. This is sometimes necessary to give the adult supervisors a break and to let the children take a breather. Back to the top How far in advance do I need to reserve a bouncer? ASAP! As soon as you have a confirmed date for your party, we highly recommend that you book your bouncer for that date. Don't wait! There's nothing worse than getting your party organized, then calling up to book a bounce house, and finding that none are available. There is nothing we hate worse than having to turn someone down. However, it happens. If this happens, at best, all we can do is refer you to one of our partner companies, or put you on standby, in the event of a cancellation. Why not just avoid the stress, and book it now.
How many children can bounce at a time? As a guide
line: I've heard they are dangerous. How safe are bounce houses? Bounce houses are very safe, as long as all the rules are followed. Bumps and bruises occasionally can be expected. However, most people have a misconception about bounce houses, and think of them as a "baby sitter." Rent a bounce house, and the adults can be left alone. WRONG! Most of the injuries are caused by or happen to unsupervised children. Just as you would not leave children unattended in a swimming pool, do not leave children unattended in a bounce house. They must be supervised at all times, and the rules must be enforced! It will keep the children entertained for hours though, and they will sleep that night! Back to the top Why are adults not allowed in the bounce houses? Because Mother
Nature and Father Time says so! With older kids (teens) and adults,
more serious injuries occur with long recovery times. Bumps and
bruises can be expected in a bounce house. Children typically get
bumps and bruises. They remember that bump or bruise for, all of
about 30 seconds. If your like me, your still feeling it three days
later! Adults end up with ruptured disks, back, head and knee
injuries and have families depending on them for income. Yes, we
would all love to be seven or eight again. Mentally some of us are,
but physically ......... it can be serious. What if it rains? For safety reasons, we cannot put bouncers up in the rain, even if it's only a slight drizzle (sorry!). If we don't put the bouncer up, then there's no charge. If the weather looks like it may turn foul, then we reserve the right to cancel the rental, reschedule, or terminate the rental early (with a refund of course). Refunds will be based on amount of time used (prorated). Again, safety is our main concern, followed by your satisfaction. Bouncers and bad weather don't mix. Back to the top
