(Q)  Where can you set up an inflatable?
(A)  Inflatables can be set up just about anywhere, provided the surface is relatively flat and there are no overhead obstructions. We’ll ask you about the surface type (grass, concrete, gravel, dirt, etc.) at the time a reservation is made to determine what is needed to set your inflatable up safely.

(Q)  How much room is necessary to set up an inflatable?
(A)  If there is a door or gate between our vehicle and the intended set up area; we will need approximately 36” to dolly in the rolled-up inflatable. Once set up, we’ll need about 2 feet on each side of the bouncer.

(Q)  How big are the inflatables?
(A)  Our inflatables vary in size. The Fun Guy will go over this with you over the phone to ensure it will fit in your desired area.

(Q)  Can you set up inflatables in parks?
(A)  Yes, however you will need to notify the city or county municipality. Questions you may want to ask about include: 1) Is there a source of electrical power within 100 feet of the intended set-up area? 2) What type of surface will the inflatable be set up on? 3) Are there underground sprinklers in the area which we should know about? 4) Is it necessary to add the city or county to our insurance policy?

(Q)  Do you deliver to my area?
(A)  We currently serve communities throughout the Inland Northwest, including those in Northern Idaho and Eastern Washington. We’re always willing to travel.

(Q)  Do you deliver and set up the inflatable?
(A)  Yes. Our company policy is to have a staff member deliver, set up, clean and inspect each inflatable prior to going over safety rules with our customers.

(Q)  What time do you deliver and pick up the inflatable?
(A)  Delivery and pick up times are dependent on your contracted rental time period. You determine the timing for your event and we will have the inflatable set up between 15 minutes and 3 hours before that time. Pick ups are scheduled as close to your event time as possible; however we may be delayed due to the number of inflatables we have rented. There is no extra charge for early delivery or late pick up.

At the time of set-up, we will ask you to sign a rental agreement for which you accept responsibility for the care of the unit while in your possession. We carry the maximum liability insurance available of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million general aggregate. Click here to view our insurance binder.
