When considering booking a party and hiring one of our inflatables, It would be great if you arrange to start your party after 12 noon as delivery is between 7am and before 12 noon, we try to get every booking out as quickly as possible, but we can not guarantee we can get to you before this time. Delivery routes are set on the evening before your hire date and sent over to delivery, the driver has to follow the route. Everyone would love their inflatable at the earliest of times, so to be fair that everyone has the same amount of hire time, 1st set ups are first collections.

Hall bookings are best to start party anytime after 12 noon, we can then set up and collect at times required for the venue. Venues, we set up at Times to suit you if in a venue.

SAFETY TIPS

  • Location is important, it must be a flat even ground with room for people to get on and off comfortably. Somewhere that the inflatable can be anchored to the ground, stakes if it is grass or thunderbolts in on hardstand or sand bags, or even both. Make sure that there is space so there is no trip hazard by the anchor weights cables blower or generator if you have no power supply.. You will also have safety mats. YOU MUST NEVER MOVE THE INFLATABLE WHEN WE HAVE SET IT UP. moving it could mean tat it becomes unstable, and this in turn puts the risk of the blower coming dislodged.
  • We will require a power point for our Electric waterproof extension cables.

Supervision

  • Supervision is always required, and must be monitored by a responsible adult at all times. The role should ensure that not too many people are on the inflatable at any one time. It is advised to have set in place a limit to the number of people on the castle at any given time. Perhaps provide other items, toys or activities to occupy those not using the inflatable.

  • Watch the belongings of those enjoying the inflatable.
  • Stop adults and children using the inflatable at the same time as this is unsafe. Even if extra care is taken, the weight of an adult could severely harm a small child if a collision occurs. Also if its not an adult bouncy castle it will damage the inflatable.
  • Stop unruly behavior that could cause an injury before it becomes too serious.
  • It is also a wise idea that the person who is placed in this role avoids : - Being tired - Drinking Alcoholic beverages - Take on the role then leave inflatable unattended.

The Weather

  • Always keep an eye on the weather. Too much wind or water can present safety hazards making the activity unsafe for all users. If the weather is very bad, we will need to cancel your hire for safety reasons. In very windy weather it is best to deflate the inflatable this will prevent further use. In Rain please do no turn off the power as it will fill with water, but please refrain from using it until the rain stops, then dry with towel to make sure it is not wet or too slippy to use.

  • It may be wet, but also the wind speed and wind gust's may be an issue. If light rain and no wind you may still be able to hire your inflatable if you so wish, you will just need to take more care and supervise at all times, Towels are recommended for feet and base of castle.

    We may not be able to fulfill your booking with us this weekend, due to guidance issued by HSE and governing bodies, in the interest of safety for the children using the inflatable.

    This is not a decision taken lightly and is only done so to ensure no child is injured with an inflatable, that is not secure in winds higher than 24mph.
