That depends on how many rentals we have that day. Generally, we ask the Customer for a three hour delivery window that best works for them. Also, when your party ends, we may come up to two hours after the end time if we are delayed.

We do not have a cut off time for reservations, we take reservations as late as the day of your event for any last minute needs, upon our availability. It is highly recommend a minimum of 2 weeks prior and ideally 2 months in advance to ensure best rates and open available.

What about parks?

We love setting up at parks, but most parks require a permit to host a party on site. Please be sure to acquire necessary permits prior to your event. Also, parks are first come, first serve so get your spot early in the day. Also, it is your responsibility to determine if we can stake the tents or if you’ll need to rent our sand bags to hold down the tents.

Does the price include set up and delivery?

The prices listed does NOT include the set up/delivery/break down fee. Remember prices do not include sales tax. Please ask about delivery fees for more information. When you pay for the delivery option, this covers us setting up and breaking down tents and inflatables only, if those items are on your order. For pick up, please have tables and chairs folded and stacked before the driver arrives.

Do you require a deposit?

To secure a reservation all you need to do is call our office with a credit card or debit. This process would hold the Rentals for your date. Once you submit your reservation the cancellation fee is 50% of the entire order amount.
