Rental policies

Everything to know before party day: booking and payment, delivery, rental times, weather, parks, power and safety. Questions? Call {PHONE}.

Booking & payment

  • Reserve online with live availability, or call the office at 412-453-5050.
  • We accept cash and credit cards.
  • Backyard events: payment is due at delivery and no deposit is required.
  • Events anywhere other than your backyard (parks, halls, schools): full payment is due when you reserve, unless other arrangements are made.
  • Large orders and park events require a non-refundable deposit.
  • Prices don't include sales tax or the Damage Waiver.

Delivery, setup & pickup

  • Delivery, setup, safety instructions and pickup are included throughout Pittsburgh and some surrounding areas.
  • Outside the free delivery area, travel fees apply; the office will quote them before you book.
  • We usually arrive 1–3 hours before your rental starts (up to 4 hours on very busy days, and we'll call first). Setup time never counts against your rental.
  • Drivers text you an ETA the day or night before. Please keep your phone with you on party day.
  • Exact-time delivery and exact-time pickup are available as paid add-ons.

Rental times

  • Backyard rentals are for the day.
  • Park and hall rentals are 4 hours, with a latest pickup of 7 PM unless arranged in advance.

Weather & cancellations

  • You can cancel any time before delivery, for any reason, with no penalty. Please cancel as early as you can.
  • If it rains, shut the blower off and let the unit wait it out; most parties resume once it stops.
  • From October through February we don't deliver for outdoor events if there's any chance of rain.
  • Always turn the blower off in high winds.

Parks & venues

  • We set up at certain Pittsburgh parks only; call to check yours.
  • Most parks require a permit and a certificate of insurance. We can email the certificate to you or the park.
  • Ask the park about electricity when you reserve your pavilion.
  • Park events are paid in full upfront and are non-refundable, since drivers can't wait on site. Plan to arrive 2 hours early.
  • We don't deliver to parks on holidays, including July 3, 4 and 5.

Space, surface & power

  • Most bounce houses need about 15×15 ft; each item lists the space it needs, including stakes and the blower.
  • We set up on grass, asphalt or concrete. We can't set up on rocks or gravel.
  • We need a clear path at least 4–5 ft wide from the street. Units weigh 300–650 lbs, so we can't lift them over walls, through houses or up hills. Stairs or a tiered yard? Call first.
  • Each inflatable needs an outlet within 50 ft on its own 20-amp breaker; some need up to three. We bring the cords.
  • No power nearby? Rent one of our generators. We don't plug into outside generators.

Safety, cleaning & damage

  • Every unit is cleaned and disinfected before every rental.
  • The renter signs our safety rules and acts as the trained operator.
  • Normal wear and tear isn't your responsibility. Damage caused by negligence or ignoring the safety rules (like leaving the blower on in high winds) is, up to full replacement.
  • A copy of the contract and safety rules is linked in your receipt, or contact the office.
