You can check available themes and sizes online or call to get help picking the best fit for your event.
Are obstacle course rentals suitable for younger kids and adults, or are they mainly designed just for children?
Obstacle course rentals come in different sizes and designs, so some are just for kids while others can handle adults too. It’s important to check the product details or ask about weight and age limits before booking. We always recommend sorting kids by size and age to keep it safe and fun, and make sure there’s always an adult watching. If you’re planning for both children and adults to join, let us know—there are options that work for all ages.
Are your obstacle course rentals suitable for both younger kids and older children at the same event, and do you recommend adult supervision during use?
Obstacle course rentals are designed with a variety of ages in mind, so they work well for both younger kids and older children at the same event. Each unit has clear guidelines for age and size, and it’s important to group children who are similar in age and ability when they use it. This helps keep everyone safe and makes the experience more fun for all. Adult supervision is always recommended any time kids are on the inflatables. Having an adult nearby keeps the activity safe, ensures rules are followed, and lets you step in quickly if needed.
Are there any bundle discounts available if I want to book multiple obstacle course rentals for a school event?
Bundle discounts are available when you book multiple rentals, which is a great way to save for school events and larger gatherings. Renting more than one inflatable—like obstacle courses, bounce houses, or water slides—makes you eligible for special pricing packages. Just let the team know how many units you need and what type of event you’re planning, and they’ll help put together the best deal for your group. Weekday rentals often come with extra savings too. Reach out by phone or through the online booking tool to get a custom quote based on your specific needs and dates.
Are obstacle course rentals suitable for both kids and adults at larger events like school festivals or neighborhood block parties?
Obstacle course rentals are a great fit for both kids and adults, especially at big events like school festivals or block parties. Most obstacle courses are built to handle a wide range of ages and sizes, and they’re designed with sturdy materials for lots of foot traffic. It’s common to see everyone from younger kids to teens and even adults having fun together. For safety, it’s best to group participants by similar age and size, limit how many people use the course at once, and always have an adult supervising. This helps make sure everyone stays safe while getting the most out of the event.
Do you offer obstacle course rentals that are suitable for different age groups, and do you provide clear space and set-up requirements beforehand?
Obstacle course rentals are available in different styles suited for various age groups, from young kids to teens and adults. Each option comes with clear space and set-up requirements listed ahead of time, so you’ll know exactly how much room is needed and how everything works before booking. Detailed instructions for safe setup and supervision are always provided to help keep everyone safe and make planning as smooth as possible.
How far in advance should I book obstacle course rentals for a weekend party to make sure I get the one I want?
For weekend parties, it’s best to book obstacle course rentals at least 2 to 3 weeks in advance, especially if your event falls during a busy season like spring or early summer. Obstacle courses are popular and can get reserved quickly, so the more notice you give, the better your chance of getting the exact one you want. Booking early also helps with scheduling delivery and setup times that fit your plan. If you know your party date, checking availability and reserving as soon as possible is always a smart move.

Obstacle courses are large and always require professional setup for safety, which is why our crew handles it all. Just choose your date—we’ll do the rest.
What kind of space and setup requirements should I plan for with obstacle course rentals in my backyard?
Obstacle course rentals usually need a flat, open area in your yard with enough extra room for safe entry and exit. Most obstacle courses are pretty big—many require at least 40-50 feet in length and about 12-18 feet wide, but exact sizes can vary depending on the model you pick. You’ll also need a few extra feet around all sides, so kids can get on and off safely and there's space to anchor it down. The setup area should be free of sharp objects, rocks, low-hanging tree limbs, or power lines. Obstacle courses must be placed on grass when possible, but some can go on smooth concrete or asphalt if discussed ahead of time. Make sure there’s access to a standard power outlet within 100 feet for the blower, or you might need a generator. If you have fences or gates, check the width—our teams need enough space (usually at least 3½ feet) for bringing in the equipment. These guidelines help make sure everything runs smoothly and stays safe for everyone.
Do you offer a discount if we keep your inflatable rentals for a second day?
If you want to keep your inflatable rentals for a second day, you can get 50% off the regular price for that extra day. This way, you can enjoy more time with the bounce house or water slide without paying full price again. Just let the team know when booking, and they’ll handle the details.
How do you handle setup and anchoring for inflatable rentals, and how much space do I need in my yard?
We take care of all the setup and anchoring for you, so you don’t have to lift a finger. Our team arrives to set up your inflatable safely, using heavy-duty stakes or sandbags to keep everything secure—no shortcuts here. For most bounce houses, you’ll want a flat space that’s at least 20x20 feet with a few feet of extra room around the sides for safety. Water slides and combos might need even more space, depending on the size you pick. If you’re not sure if your yard will work, just ask—we’re happy to help you measure and make sure you have enough room.
How early will you arrive to deliver and set up our inflatable rentals before the party starts?
Delivery and setup usually happen 1 to 3 hours before your scheduled party start time. On especially busy days, setup might be even earlier to make sure everything’s ready before your guests arrive. The team will keep you updated on the plan so you know exactly when to expect them. All you need to do is make sure there’s someone at home to show us where you want things placed.
Can you set up inflatable rentals on concrete or a driveway, and how do you anchor them safely?
Inflatable rentals can sometimes be set up on concrete or hard surfaces, depending on the unit and safety requirements. In those cases, proper anchoring methods such as sandbags or other approved weights may be used instead of stakes. Because setup conditions vary, we recommend contacting us in advance so we can confirm what’s possible for your specific location and ensure everything is done safely. Adult supervision is also a must, especially since the surface can be harder if anyone takes a tumble. If you have specific questions about your setup area, it’s always helpful to give us a call so we can make sure everything will work safely.
How early do you usually arrive to deliver and set up our inflatable rentals before the party starts?

You’ll get clear communication from the team about expected arrival, so you can plan ahead and know exactly when to expect us.
What happens if it rains on the day of our inflatable rentals, and can we reschedule?
If it’s raining on your event day, safety comes first—we don’t recommend using inflatables when it’s wet or stormy, especially if lightning is in the area. You can call before your delivery time to cancel due to bad weather without a penalty, and that deposit can be applied to a rescheduled date within a year. If equipment’s already been delivered and set up, refunds or rescheduling aren’t available. Checking the weather early and making a decision before the scheduled drop-off helps avoid any issues and keeps everyone safe.
How early do you typically arrive to deliver and set up inflatable rentals before my party starts?

For most bounce houses and bigger equipment, delivery, setup, and takedown are included and handled by professionals. This helps make sure everything is safe, clean, and ready for your event. If you need to pick up a smaller item, just ask what’s available when you book.
How do you keep your bounce house rentals clean and safe between each party?

Our team is trained to handle setup and take-down to keep things safe for your kids and their friends.
How much space do I need in my yard for your obstacle course rentals, and do you handle the anchoring during setup?
Obstacle courses need a good amount of open, flat space—check the size listed for the specific inflatable, but most require at least 35 to 50 feet in length and 15 to 20 feet in width, plus extra space around the sides for safety and easy access. When setting up, the team always takes care of anchoring the obstacle course securely, using heavy-duty stakes or sandbags depending on the setup location, so you don’t have to worry about stability or safety during your event.

That way, there’s plenty of time to get everything safely set up before your guests arrive.
What payment do you require to reserve inflatable rentals, and can I pay the remaining balance in cash on delivery?

Can I add tables, chairs, a tent, or a concession machine to my inflatable rentals to make party setup easier?
You can add tables, chairs, a tent, or a concession machine—like popcorn, cotton candy, or Sno-Kones—to your inflatable rental. This makes it easy to set up a complete party space without dealing with different vendors. Just let us know what you need during booking, and everything will be delivered together and picked up after your event. These extras help keep guests comfortable and entertained, and bundling them with an inflatable rental saves time and hassle.
Do your inflatable rentals come with rules for how many kids can be inside at once and what age groups should play together?
All inflatable rentals include clear guidelines for how many kids can play inside at one time and which age groups should play together. It’s really important to follow these rules for safety—kids are grouped by similar age and size so everyone can bounce comfortably and avoid injuries. Capacity limits are listed for each inflatable, and adult supervision is always recommended to help things run smoothly and keep everyone safe.
Do you offer generators with your inflatable rentals if I don’t have an outdoor power outlet close to the setup area?
Generators are available for rent if you don’t have an outdoor power outlet near your setup area. Each generator is 3000W and works well with inflatable rentals that require electricity.

Do your water slide rentals require a hose hookup, or can you provide the water source if I don’t have one nearby?
