FAQs

All of our Inflatables are PIPA & RPII tested to comply with the European & British standard BS EN 14960: 2013 as set by HSE.

What do you class as a day hire?

A day hire would normally mean a delivery in the morning (AM) till 5pm although we can extend this time slightly if say for example your party finishes at 5-30 or 6pm. Also if your party is due to start say at 10am in the morning please tell us when you book and we will make sure your inflatable arrives on time.

What do you class as a day & evening hire?

AM delivery till dusk although if you are booking adult equipment we can extend the hire time.

What do you class as an evening booking?

For an evening booking we will guarantee delivery to you before 4pm till dusk or later if you are booking an adult inflatable (but don't be surprised if the inflatable turns up earlier than 4pm if the driver is in your area).

Last time we hired an inflatable on a day hire it was not collected till 8pm! why is this?

We say a day hire guarantees up until 5pm, as this is the time our drivers start their collections, in some cases where a lot of inflatables have to be collected our drivers can take some time to get around all of the addresses they have (so if you only book a days hire you will only pay for a days hire even if our drivers collect later into the evening).

My Postcode is not listed in your delivery areas?

Please call our office on 01580 830102 as we do sometimes cover other areas on request.

I'm holding my party at our village hall, can you deliver at 2pm and collect at 4-30pm?

Yes, all deliveries to halls and fetes etc. will take priority over our deliveries and collections, because we understand that you have to return keys etc. (for example if your fete finishes at 4pm, we will not expect you to wait around for us).

What if it is raining on the day of my hire?

We will always turn up with the inflatable if we feel it is safe to. (although if you wish to cancel due to the weather, we will not charge you providing you have not already taken delivery).

How do I pay for my hire?

Our drivers will expect payment on DELIVERY, although you can send payment before if you wish.

Do you set-up the inflatable for us?

Yes the price your quoted includes delivery, set-up and pack-away (some areas do carry a delivery charge, please ask when booking via telephone).

Can an Inflatable be set up outside on a hard surface (i.e. concrete)?

No, but certain inflatables can go on this surface (see suitability on the product), then we would supply groundsheets, safety mats and sand bags for anchorage (there will be an additional charge for safety mats, sandbags and groundsheets).

Can an Inflatable be set up on sand?

No! Sand is very abrasive and can damage an Inflatable, please bear this in mind if you have a sand pit in your garden as the children may try and take the sand onto the Inflatable.

Do you hold Public Liability Insurance?

Yes, we have a £10 Million Public Liability Insurance cover for all inflatables up to 40ft & £5 Million for inflatables over 40ft.

  4. No food or drinks are to be consumed on the inflatable (to avoid choking and mess).

  7. Do not allow children to take any hard or sharp objects onto the equipment, or anything large enough to block exits/entrances.
  8. No party-poppers, henna, face paint, coloured streamers or “silly string” can be used near or on the equipment, as these may permanently stain the unit, for which you are liable.
