Placing an order
What is required to place an order?
You will be asked for your name, address, phone number, a valid drivers’ license or other government issued photo identification, and a major credit card. (Additional forms of identification also may be requested.) If you do not have a major credit card, a cash deposit equal to the replacement cost of the equipment will be collected. The cash deposit will be refunded upon the timely return of all products in the same condition as they were received.
How far in advance should I place my order?
Advanced reservations are recommended to ensure availability. We recommend placing your reservation at least two weeks prior to the date of your event. However, you may place your order one day in advance or up to one year in advance. In the party rental business, it’s first come, first served.
When and how do I pay?
We require a 50% deposit one week before your party. The balance is due on delivery, in cash or you may use your credit cards. No checks on delivery. Equipment shall not be considered reserved until the rental agreement is signed and the deposit received. The deposit is transferable to another date, but if you cancel within 48 hours of your party – you lose your deposit.
What if I'm having my party in a park?
You are responsible for obtaining a park permit, if one is needed. We offer all day rentals with pickup no later than 6 p.m. (daylight savings time) or 5 p.m. standard time. Our generators have enough gas to run your inflatable for about 4 hours, so if you’d like a longer party, please bring with you some extra gas in a can.
Doesn't the City of Glendale have specific requirements?
Yes, they do. Please click here for information and pricing.
