RENTAL POLICIES
RESERVATIONS
Our online reservation process is easy, and can be used to make reservations up to 24 hours prior to your event. We accept all types of credit and debit cards, as well as cash or check. You will receive an emailed receipt and confirmation.
BAD WEATHER CANCELLATION/REFUND POLICY
In most cases, we can deliver rain or shine. If the weather conditions are unfavorable, you have the option to reschedule your event prior to delivery. Any payment(s) you have made will transfer over to the rescheduled date, or be held as a "rain check" towards a future rental good for one year. If you choose to cancel your event without rescheduling, you can receive a refund of any payments you have made.
Once we start setting up, there are no refunds for any reason, even if you are unable to use the equipment due to adverse weather conditions. We reserve the right to refuse delivery if there is a chance that severe weather could cause unsafe conditions or damage our equipment. If that happens, you will receive a full refund.
GENERAL CANCELLATION/REFUND POLICY
You may cancel your reservation up to 14 days prior to event date for any reason and receive a full refund of any payments made. If you cancel less than 14 days from the event, you will forfeit the down payment amount unless the equipment can be rented to someone else on that date (this does not apply to bad weather cancellations).
RENTAL CONTRACT & LIABILITY RELEASE
All rentals require a signature of our rental contract and liability release.
DELIVERY & SETUP
Professional delivery and setup is included in the price of inflatables within 20 miles of Galena Fees will apply for special setup requirements, specific types of events or setup locations, or delivery outside of our normal delivery area.
We reserve the right to assess setup and/or pickup fees after the fact for any situation that requires additional costs. Examples include having to move equipment after it's been set up, customer not present or not prepared for delivery at scheduled time, obstructions to setup area access, leaving water running to a deflated inflatable, failure to follow deflation instructions, etc.
SETUP SURFACES
The preferred (and safest) setup surface is grass. We put down an oversized tarp and stake the inflatables down to the ground for safety. We DO NOT set up on dirt, rocks, or sloped ground. We can set up on driveways where it's possible to drive anchoring staked on both sides (slides must follow the slope of the driveway). We can set up indoors in a gymnasium or outside in a parking lot or tennis court. Extra fees may apply if we need to use sandbags for anchoring those types of setups. Some inflatables cannot be properly anchored with sandbags alone - please contact us before making your reservation.
NEGLIGENCE & ABUSE
All our equipment is commercial quality and will not be damaged by normal use. However, you are responsible for any theft, damage, or cleaning costs not related to ordinary use or wear and tear, which includes (but is not limited to) cutting or tearing of the vinyl or netting, damage due to overturning, overloading, exceeding rated capacities, improper use, abuse, or using non-approved items such as silly string, confetti, toys, baby oil, food & drink, candy, paint, etc. Use of WATER is never allowed in any of the inflatables. If any inflatables are found wet at pick up time (for other than weather related causes) the customer will be charged for set up, drying and re-rolling expenses at a rate $100. Damage charges will be based upon the cost to repair plus any lost business.
SILLY STRING
WARNING: Silly String causes permanent damage to inflatables. You should not have silly string at your party if you plan to have an inflatable. Even trace amounts of dry silly string on kid's clothes can cause permanent staining. You will be responsible for any damage caused by silly string which could involve complete replacement of the inflatable!
