You can reserve a bounce house by [booking online, calling/texting us, or sending us an email]. We recommend booking in advance, especially for weekends and holidays, as our equipment may be in high demand.

Yes! We prioritize safety and cleanliness. Each bounce house is inspected, cleaned and sanitized after every use. We follow industry standards and provide safety guidelines for safety and use.

Everything! Our units are a perfect addition to any party, event, or celebration. You can find one of our vast selection of bouncers, water slides, and interactive units at occasions including but not limited to: birthday parties, church festivals, charity events, corporate events, company picnics, school field days, grand openings, family reunions, Vacation Bible Schools, summer camps, and much more!

Under no circumstances should water be used with any inflatable that is not designed for such use. However, there are inflatables designed for use with water. We will be glad to let you know what water units are available for you to rent for your event.

We can setup on most surfaces. The best and most secure most of the time is a setup on grass. It allows us to use large stakes to secure the inflatables. We can also setup on the blacktop or concrete and we will use sandbags to secure them for your safety. We do not like to setup on rocks as they have jagged edges and will puncture the inflatable.

  1. Setup and Takedown:

    • Our team handles setup and takedown to ensure safe installation. Deliveries may occur up to 48 hours before your event, and pickups up to 48 hours after. While extra time with the inflatable isn’t guaranteed, it’s possible based on efficient routing. Rest assured; your rental will be ready for your event.
