Booking & Availability
How do I book a bounce house or party rental?
Booking takes just a few minutes online. Pick your rental, enter your event date and address, and check out — you’ll see your total, including delivery, before you pay. Prefer to talk it through? Call or text us at (678) 637-2426 and we’ll get you set up.
How far in advance should I reserve my inflatable rental?
As early as you can. Spring and summer weekends, holidays like the Fourth of July, end-of-school season, and fall festival dates book out weeks ahead — especially popular water slides and obstacle courses. Booking early means you get first pick instead of what’s left.
Can I check availability online?
Yes — our online booking shows live availability for your date. Enter your event date and address and you’ll see exactly what’s open and what it costs, with no waiting for a callback.
Do you offer same-day or last-minute rentals?
Sometimes! It depends on what’s still available and where you’re located. Call or text (678) 637-2426 and we’ll tell you honestly what we can do — if we can make it work, we will.
Do you rent for birthdays, schools, churches, HOAs, and city events?
All of the above. We handle backyard birthday parties, school field days, church festivals and VBS weeks, HOA and neighborhood events, corporate family days, and city and community events across Woodstock, Kennesaw, Acworth, Canton, and surrounding areas. We’ve served 30+ local schools and plenty of churches, so big multi-unit events are familiar territory.
Can you help me choose the right inflatable for my event?
Absolutely — that’s half of what we do. Tell us your date, city, age group, guest count, and event type, and we’ll recommend the best fit for your space and crowd. Text a photo of your yard to (678) 637-2426 if you’re not sure what fits.
What information do I need before booking?
Just the basics: your event date, the delivery address, roughly where the unit will go (grass, pavement, or indoors), and where your nearest outlet and water spigot are. If you know the age range of your guests, that helps us point you to the right unit too.
Delivery, Setup & Pickup
Do you deliver and set up the inflatables?
Yes — every rental includes delivery, professional setup, anchoring, and takedown by our crew. You never touch a blower, a stake, or a sandbag. We set it up, walk you through the operating guidelines, and come back for pickup.
What time will you deliver my rental?
We confirm a delivery window ahead of your event, and our crew arrives inside that window with enough time for your rental to be inflated and ready before your start time. For schools and large events, we plan arrival around your schedule — before the first bell if needed.
Do I need to be home for delivery?
We strongly recommend someone be there. You (or another adult) need to show us the setup spot, confirm placement before we anchor, and hear the quick safety walkthrough. If nobody can be there, call us in advance so we can make a plan together.
How long does setup take?
Most single units are set up in about 15–30 minutes. Larger slides, obstacle courses, tents, and multi-unit events take longer, and we build that into our arrival time so you’re ready before guests show up.
Can the inflatable be moved after setup?
No — once a unit is set up and anchored, it cannot be moved. Please decide exactly where you want your rental before the crew arrives, and talk through any placement questions with the driver while our team is on-site, before the unit is anchored and finalized. Moving an anchored inflatable isn’t safe for the equipment or your guests.
What time do you pick up?
Pickup time is confirmed along with your delivery window and depends on your rental length. Standard rentals run about 6 hours; we’ll arrange pickup after your event wraps. If your timing needs are specific, tell us when you book and we’ll work with you.
Do you offer overnight rentals?
Yes! Overnight rentals are one of our most popular options — the party doesn’t have to end at dinner, and pickup happens the next morning. Overnight pricing starts at $358.80 and you can select it right at checkout.
Do you deliver to Woodstock, Kennesaw, Acworth, Canton, and nearby areas?
Yes — those are our home turf. We also deliver to Marietta, Holly Springs, and communities across Cherokee County and Cobb County. Your delivery fee is calculated at checkout based on your location, so just enter your address to see your exact rate. See our full delivery area.
Power, Water & Setup Requirements
What power is needed for a bounce house?
A standard household outlet (110v) on its own circuit runs the blower that keeps the inflatable inflated. Larger units and multi-unit setups may need more than one outlet — we’ll tell you exactly what your rental needs when you book.
How close does the outlet need to be?
Within about 50 feet of the setup area. If your power is farther away than that, let us know before event day so we can plan — usually that means adding a generator.
Do I need a generator?
Only if there’s no working outlet within about 50 feet of the setup spot — which is common at parks, fields, and some large outdoor venues. Ask about generator options when you book so your event isn’t stuck without power.
Do I need a water hose for water slides?
Yes — water slides need a working water spigot with a hose that reaches the unit. We bring a 25 ft hose with our water units; if your spigot is farther than that from the setup spot, please have your own hose ready to bridge the gap.
How close does the hose need to be?
Ideally the spigot is within 25 feet of the slide (that’s the hose we bring). Farther is fine as long as your own hose can reach with steady water flow. Standard residential water pressure works great.
Can I use my own extension cord?
Please leave the power setup to us. Our crew brings the right heavy-duty cords for the blowers — household extension cords often can’t handle the load safely and can trip breakers or damage equipment.
What should I prepare before the driver arrives?
- Know exactly where you want the rental set up (remember: it can’t be moved after anchoring)
- Clear the area of sticks, rocks, toys, furniture, and pet waste
- Unlock gates and make sure our crew has a clear path to the spot
- Know where your nearest outlet is (within about 50 feet)
- For water slides: have your spigot and hose ready to go
- Turn off sprinkler systems for the day
What happens if power or water is not ready?
Our crew will do everything reasonable to work with you on-site, but if there’s no usable power or water source, the unit can’t run. That’s why we confirm your setup details when you book — a two-minute conversation beforehand prevents event-day problems. When in doubt, call or text us a photo of your setup area at (678) 637-2426.
Surfaces, Parks & Indoor Setups
Can a bounce house be set up on grass?
Yes — grass is the easiest and most common surface. We anchor units on grass with long steel stakes, which gives the most secure hold. Just make sure there are no sprinkler lines, shallow utilities, or invisible dog fences where we’ll be staking (call 811 or your irrigation company if you’re unsure).
Can inflatables be set up on concrete, asphalt, pavement, or indoors?
Usually, yes. On hard surfaces and indoors we anchor with sandbags instead of stakes. Tell us your surface when you book so the crew arrives with the right anchoring — and for indoor setups, we’ll confirm ceiling height and door access fit the unit you want.
Do you set up at parks?
We do park setups regularly. Two things to handle before booking: check the park’s rules (see the permit question below), and plan for power — most parks don’t have usable outlets near setup areas, so a generator is usually needed.
Do I need a permit for a park rental?
Possibly — every park is different. Reserving pavilions, getting permits, and confirming that inflatables are allowed is the customer’s responsibility, so contact the park or city before you book. Many parks also require proof of insurance, which we’re happy to provide.
Are generators required for park setups?
Usually, yes. Unless the park has a working outlet within about 50 feet of your setup spot (rare), you’ll need a generator. Ask us about generator options when you book your park event.
Can inflatables be set up on hills, gravel, mulch, sand, or uneven ground?
Flat is the goal. A very slight grade is often workable, but real slopes, gravel, and rocky ground are unsafe for inflatables and we can’t set up on them. Mulch and sand are case-by-case depending on the unit and anchoring. Not sure about your spot? Text us a photo at (678) 637-2426 before you book — we’d rather tell you upfront than surprise you on event day.
What if my backyard has a slope?
Send us a photo or a quick video panning across the yard. Mild slopes can sometimes work depending on the unit and direction of the grade; steeper slopes won’t. We’ll give you a straight answer, and if the backyard won’t work we can suggest alternatives like a driveway setup with sandbags or a smaller unit that fits a flatter section.
How much space do I need?
Every product page lists that unit’s dimensions. As a rule of thumb, add a few feet of clearance on every side, room for the blower behind the unit, and overhead clearance free of branches and power lines. Measure your space before booking — and if you’re between two units, we’ll help you pick the one that fits.
Not sure what to rent?
Tell us your date, city, age group, and event type — we’ll help you choose the best option for your space and your crowd.
Check Availability Call or Text (678) 637-2426Safety, Cleaning & Supervision
Are your bounce houses and water slides safe?
Safety is the core of how we operate. Our inflatables are commercial-grade, state-inspected units, we’re fully insured, and every setup is properly anchored and checked by our crew before anyone plays. Combined with adult supervision and the safety rules below, our rentals are designed to give families peace of mind.
Are the inflatables cleaned?
Yes. After each rental, every unit is thoroughly cleaned with commercial vinyl cleaners, disinfected, and sanitized, then inspected before it goes back out. When it arrives at your event, it’s ready for your kids — not the last party’s leftovers.
Are your inflatables inspected?
Yes — our units are state-inspected, and our team inspects equipment between rentals for cleanliness and condition. We’re also fully insured and can provide documentation for schools, churches, and venues that require it.
Are your rentals lead-free?
Yes — all of our units are made from 100% lead-free vinyl.
Do adults need to supervise the inflatable?
Yes, always. A responsible adult must supervise the inflatable the entire time it’s in use — no exceptions. Supervision is the single biggest factor in keeping inflatable play safe.
How many kids can use a bounce house at one time?
It depends on the unit and the size of the riders — each product page lists its capacity, and the safety rules are posted on the unit itself. The golden rule: group riders by similar size and age, and fewer bigger kids at a time is always safer than a packed unit.
Can adults use the inflatables?
Many of our units are commercial-grade and rated for teens and adults — especially our larger water slides and obstacle courses. Check the product page for the unit you want, or ask us and we’ll point you to the adult-friendly options.
What are the main safety rules?
- A responsible adult supervises at all times
- Riders of similar size and age play together
- No flips, wrestling, or rough play
- Shoes, glasses, jewelry, and sharp objects come off before entering
- No food, drinks, gum, or candy inside
- No pets inside the unit
- Exit the unit if the blower stops or weather turns bad
Our crew reviews the rules with you at setup, and they’re posted on every unit.
Can food, drinks, gum, silly string, or shoes go inside?
No — none of those. Food, drinks, gum, and candy create choking and mess hazards; silly string and face paint permanently damage vinyl; shoes and sharp objects can hurt riders and puncture the unit. Keeping these out protects your guests and your damage deposit.
Can we use soap or baby oil on a water slide?
Please don’t. Never add soap, baby oil, dish detergent, or anything else to make a slide faster — it makes the slide dangerously slick, can cause injuries, and damages the vinyl. Our water slides are plenty fun with just water, we promise.
Weather, Rain & Cancellation
What happens if it rains?
Georgia weather keeps us all guessing, so here’s how it works: if the forecast looks bad, you can reschedule due to weather by 9 AM the day before your event. We’ll work with you to find a new date that fits. Final weather and cancellation details follow your rental agreement and booking terms.
Can I reschedule because of weather?
Yes — just let us know by 9 AM the day before your event. That gives us time to adjust routes and gives you time to pick a new date without losing your booking.
What if there is lightning, strong wind, or unsafe weather?
Everyone exits the unit immediately — lightning, high winds, and severe weather are the times inflatables must not be used. Our crew reviews weather guidelines with you at setup, including when to power the unit down. Safety beats party schedule every time.
Do you set up in bad weather?
We can’t set up in conditions that aren’t safe for our crew or your guests — heavy rain, lightning, or high winds. If the weather is borderline, we’ll communicate with you directly about timing options. That’s exactly what the reschedule policy is for.
When do I need to decide about rescheduling?
By 9 AM the day before your event. After that, the truck is loaded and the route is set. If the forecast looks shaky, watch it the day before and call or text us at (678) 637-2426 — we’d rather reschedule you than have you rained out.
What happens if it starts raining during the event?
Light rain: everyone exits the unit and waits it out — a wet inflatable is a slippery inflatable. Lightning or strong wind: exit immediately and power down per the guidelines our crew reviews at setup. Once it passes and the unit is dried off, the fun usually continues.
Are deposits refundable?
Deposit and refund details follow your rental agreement and booking terms, which you’ll see at checkout. The short version: weather reschedules made by 9 AM the day before your event protect your booking. If you have a specific situation, call us — we’re reasonable people and we’ll work with you.
Payments, Deposits & Pricing
How much does it cost to rent a bounce house?
Standard 6-hour rentals start at $299, overnight rentals start at $358.80, and multi-day options are available. Your exact total depends on the unit, event date, rental length, location, and any add-ons — and you’ll see the full price, including delivery, at checkout before you pay. Check availability for real pricing on your date →
Do you require a deposit?
Yes — a deposit reserves your unit and your date, with the amount shown at checkout when you book. That deposit is what guarantees your inflatable isn’t rented to someone else for your event day.
When is the remaining balance due?
Your balance timing is shown when you book and in your booking confirmation. If you have questions about your balance before event day, call or text us at (678) 637-2426 and we’ll pull up your reservation.
What payment methods do you accept?
Booking and payment are handled through our secure online checkout with major credit and debit cards. Need to arrange something different — like a school or church purchasing process? Call us and we’ll work with your organization.
Are there delivery fees?
Delivery is calculated at checkout based on your location — enter your address and you’ll see your exact delivery fee before you pay. No surprises on event day.
Are there extra fees for parks, generators, long-distance delivery, stairs, or difficult access?
Sometimes — setups that need extra equipment (like a generator) or extra labor (long carries, stairs, tight access) can add cost. The best move is to tell us about your location upfront so your quote is accurate the first time. We’d much rather price it right than surprise you.
Do schools and nonprofits get discounts?
Schools, churches, and nonprofit organizations may qualify for special event pricing when available — especially for multi-unit bookings like field days and festivals. Tell us about your event when you reach out and we’ll see what we can do.
Do you offer package deals?
Yes — combining rentals is often the best value, like a water slide plus concessions for a summer party, or multiple inflatables plus tents, tables, and chairs for a festival. Tell us your budget and guest count and we’ll build a package that fits.
Water Slides & Summer Rentals
What do I need for a water slide rental?
Three things: a flat setup area big enough for the slide, a standard outlet within about 50 feet, and a working water spigot — we bring a 25 ft hose, so have your own hose ready if the spigot is farther. Add towels and sunscreen, and you’re set for the best summer day of the year.
Are water slides good for backyard birthday parties?
They’re the #1 summer birthday rental for a reason. A backyard water slide keeps kids entertained for hours, keeps everyone cool in the Georgia heat, and turns an ordinary birthday into the one the neighborhood talks about. View our water slide rentals in Woodstock, GA →
What size water slide should I rent?
Match the slide to your riders and your space. Smaller slides suit younger kids and tighter yards; mid-size slides around 15–18 ft fit most backyard parties; and our bigger slides, like our 22 ft units, bring real thrill for older kids, teens, and adults. Tell us your age group and yard size and we’ll match you to the right slide.
Do you have dual lane water slides?
Yes! Dual lane slides let two riders race side by side — double the throughput, which matters when you’ve got a line of excited kids. They’re a favorite for bigger parties, HOA events, and school field days.
Can water slides be used dry?
Some can, depending on the unit — ask us about the slide you want and we’ll confirm whether a dry setup works. For cooler-weather events, our dry slides are built exactly for that.
Do water slides need a flat area?
Yes — slides especially need flat, stable ground because of their height. A slight grade may work depending on the direction; a real slope won’t. When in doubt, text us a photo of the spot at (678) 637-2426 before booking.
Are water slides good for teenagers and adults?
Our larger slides absolutely are — they’re commercial-grade and many are rated for teens and adults. If your party skews older, tell us and we’ll point you to the tall, fast options instead of the kiddie slides.
How much water pressure do I need?
Normal residential water pressure from a standard spigot is all it takes. The slide’s misting system runs continuously off your hose — no special hookups needed.
Do you rent water slides in Woodstock, Kennesaw, Acworth, and Canton?
Yes — water slide rentals in Woodstock, Kennesaw, Acworth, and Canton are the heart of our summer season, along with Marietta, Holly Springs, and the rest of Cherokee and Cobb County. Summer weekends book out fast, so grab your date early. Browse water slides →
Tents, Tables, Chairs & Event Extras
Do you rent tents, tables, and chairs?
Yes — including high peak tents (like our 20×20), plus tables and chairs to seat your guests. They pair perfectly with inflatables for a complete event setup, or rent them on their own.
Do you set up tables and chairs?
Tents are always professionally set up by our crew. For tables and chairs, setup arrangements depend on your order — tell us what you need when you book and we’ll confirm exactly what’s included for your event.
Do you offer tent sidewalls or lights?
Ask us when you book — available add-ons vary by tent and date. Tell us what you’re planning (evening event, chance of wind, etc.) and we’ll let you know what options we can provide.
Do you rent concessions like snow cone, cotton candy, or popcorn machines?
Yes! Snow cone, cotton candy, and popcorn machines are the finishing touch that turns a party into a festival — and kids lose their minds over them (in a good way).
Are concessions good for schools, churches, and festivals?
They’re practically mandatory. Concession machines are the highest-traffic table at any field day, fall festival, or VBS week — and they work great as fundraiser stations too.
Can I add carnival games or interactive rentals?
Yes — carnival games, interactive inflatables, obstacle courses, and attractions like foam parties and our rock climbing wall can all be added depending on availability. Browse games and interactives →
Can I build a full event package?
That’s our favorite kind of order. Inflatables + tent + tables and chairs + concessions + games = a complete event from one local company, one delivery, one point of contact. Tell us your date, guest count, and budget and we’ll build it with you.
Schools, Churches, Corporate & Large Events
Do you handle school field days?
Field days are one of our specialties — we’ve served 30+ local schools with multi-unit setups, on-time early arrivals, and equipment that keeps entire grade levels moving. Obstacle courses and interactive games are the field day MVPs.
Do you rent for church festivals and Vacation Bible School events?
Yes — fall festivals, spring flings, trunk-or-treats, and VBS weeks are regulars on our calendar. We work around your service schedule and set up where your facilities team wants us.
Can you handle large events with multiple inflatables?
Absolutely. With 400+ inflatables in inventory, we can outfit everything from a two-unit school event to a full festival lineup with slides, obstacle courses, games, tents, and concessions. Large events need lead time, so reach out early and we’ll plan it right.
Do you provide proof of insurance?
Yes — we’re fully insured and happy to provide documentation for your venue, school district, church, or city.
Can schools or cities request a certificate of insurance?
Yes. If your organization needs a certificate of insurance (COI), request it when you book and we’ll get the paperwork to the right person before your event.
Do you offer attendants or staffing?
Some of our attractions, like the rock climbing wall, are operated by our trained event staff. For other units, event staffing may be available depending on the event — ask when booking and we’ll confirm options for your date.
What should event planners know before booking?
- Book early — school and festival season dates go fast
- Know your surface (grass vs. pavement) and power situation
- Request your COI early if your organization requires one
- Have a rain plan — our weather reschedule deadline is 9 AM the day before
- Share your event schedule so we can plan delivery around it
Do you help with layout planning?
Yes — for multi-unit events we’ll help you plan where each attraction goes based on space, power, water access, sight lines for supervision, and crowd flow. Send us a photo or map of your venue and we’ll talk it through.
