Browse our most frequently asked questions list below to learn everything you need to know!
Tents
- A pole tent is designed to be used on dirt or grassy areas where staking is possible. A pole tent has side and center poles and requires staking in order to assemble the tent. It’s not suitable to put a pole tent on concrete or most hard surfaces.
- A frame tent is a free-standing structure and can be set up on all surfaces (grass, gravel, asphalt or concrete). It can be anchored with stakes, water barrels, or concrete blocks. A frame tent does not have any center poles.
- Yes, tent pricing includes setup and break down of the tent(s).
- Yes, we offer water barrels or concrete blocks as an alternative to staking at an additional cost.
- The customer is responsible for providing access to a working water spigot within 150′ of the tent(s) for the water barrels.
- No, our tents are priced without sidewalls. Most summer events do not require them. Solid and windowed sidewalls are available at an additional cost.
Inflatables
- Yes. The blower keeps air in the inflatable unit. Once unplugged it will deflate. We require an outlet or a generator within 125′ of the unit. Heavy duty extension cords are included with your rental.
- We can set up on grass (our favorite and best for the kids), dirt, asphalt, and concrete. We can´t set up on any type of rocks (other than pea stone). If being set up on a surface where we cannot stake, sandbags will be added to your order for an additional cost.
- Waterslides can only be set-up on grass or dirt.
- You are not responsible for normal wear and tear on our units. Seams may develop tears in high traffic areas over a period of time. If this happens, please alert us at once so we can fix the situation. If failure to follow our safety rules (i.e. not turning off the blower in high winds) results in damage, you will be responsible for all damages up to and including replacement of the unit and/or blower.
- Yes! All of our units are cleaned thoroughly. We are committed to making sure that your children are playing in a clean, well maintained, and safe environment. After each rental, every unit is thoroughly cleaned by commercial vinyl cleaners, disinfected, and sanitized.

General Questions
For orders with a tent, the setup of the tables under the tent is included. We will leave the chairs stacked in the center of the tent(s).
Pricing for tables and chairs without a tent does not include setup. They will be stacked neatly in an easily accessed area. We also will not carry tables and chairs into a residential household due to liability reasons. If requested we will bring them into a garage, or commercial property.
We do offer setup of tables and chairs for an additional fee.
We cannot be responsible for the weather conditions. If the order is cancelled because of weather, all of the cancellation terms remain in place.
- We ask you to leave everything under the tent and stack the equipment as it was delivered. If you do not have a tent, we ask that you leave everything accessible for the pick-up crew in the same location as it was delivered. If the items are not accessible when the crew arrives, there may be an additional delivery charge to return and pick up the equipment.
- Please shake out loose debris and place the dirty linens in the provided bin and either leave it under the tent if one was rented or with the tables and chairs.
- As per our cancellation policy, we require at least a 30 day notice of any cancellation for a full refund. If an order or item is cancelled within 30 days of an event, the 25% deposit is forfeited for the order.
- Cancellation policy also includes partial cancellations. For example, if 50% of your order is cancelled within 30 days of your event, the 25% deposit is forfeited for those items.
Unfortunately we are a delivery based company only.
