We understand that accidents happen. We do use specific cleaners for our inflatables. We will provide a bottle of cleaner in the event of an accident.  Spills and messes can create a problem when we pick your inflatable up. Often, a spilled can of pop will go unnoticed and create a real sticky mess. Any spill or mess must be cleaned prior to us rolling it up. 

If we find a mess that is not cleaned up by the customer, customer will be charged a $150 cleaning fee. This fee applies to anything we find on the inflatable including but not limited to food, drinks, silly string, face paint etc. 

Customer is held liable for any and all damages to equipment other than normal wear and tear. (examples but not limited to: ripped seam on an inflatable due to overloading riders) However customer is not liable for damages to equipment due to previously damaged or faulty equipment customer may buy an addition insurance policy for 10% of the rental price to protect against accidental equipment damage this does not cover ripped seams from overloading units.

If winds exeed 15 mph, lightning occus, or it begins to rain you will need to clear everyone from the inflatable for their safety. Once everyone is out, unplug the blower from the power outlet and wait for the weather to subside. Once the weather has passed you will need to wipe the blower dry and then inflate the inflatable. You will need to dry the inside of the inflatable before allowing anyone back inside. Inflatables get very slippery when when but please remember safety comes first. During a storm or strong winds if an inflatable is not deflated it can blow away. Remember the customer is responsible for the unity while it is being rented. 

Yes! Just let us know you need proof and we will bring it with at the time of delivery.
