Am I allowed to hire this castle from you and then charge people to use the castle?

Yes you are, but you must bear in mind that you are in charge and must make sure that people who use the castle are safe, don't overload the castle to try to make extra money. As the hirer you are liable for any damages

Can the bouncy castle be set up on a slope?

It is not desirable to unless it is a very slight slope. If you are unsure we will always visit your garden to advise you prior to the booking.

Does the castle need to be set up on grass only?

It is most desirable to set up inflatables on grass but not always necessary. A castle can be set up on concrete and tarmac but this will have to be discussed beforehand and the proposed site visited to ensure this is possible, as we will need to provide thick groundsheets and be able to drill 6 x small 8mm holes into the hard surface. A small fee of £30 is required per inflatable.

How long does it take to set up/inflate/deflate/pack up the inflatable?

The bouncy castles take approx 15 minutes to set up and 20 minutes to pack down. However this is only an estimate, times may vary depending on which castle you hire and the ease of access to the proposed site.

How much space is needed?

You will need to allow adequate space around all sides of the castle, if you are in any doubt as to whether you have enough space please discuss this when booking as we can come to visit the proposed site prior to booking (there is a small fee of £10 which is none refundable ). You will also need to provide adequate access to the site, the castles are delivered on a sack barrow so 2ft-3ft width is required. If we are delivering a super slide we will require a min of 3.5ft. If access is through your property please let us know when booking the castle. We cannot be held responsible for any damage incurred whilst wheeling the castle though your home.

Is there anything I need to provide?

We supply all you will need for the castle, all you will need to provide is a 240 volts mains power supply. If you do not have a power supply for the castle you will need to hire a generator. You will also need to ensure that the proposed site for the castle is free from debris/garden furniture/children’s toys and most importantly dog/cat mess.

Does it need electricity? How much does it use?

Yes. We will supply the extension cables to a maximum of 50 Metres, so you'll need an outlet near the set up area. The blower runs continuously and uses approximately £0.18 of electricity per hour. Your blow dryer uses more than that! NOTE: All blowers and wiring are safety checked before delivery

Is there an age limit for children using the castle?

Yes, all our junior castles are suitable for children up to and including the age of 12. For any child over this age you will need to hire an adult castle.

Is it cheaper if we pick up the bouncy castle ourselves?

No. In fact, Bounceroos does not allow for this. All of our drivers are trained as professional installers and are certified by Bounceroos to be the exclusive installer of our equipment. Our insurance requires that our installers do an on site inspection as well. Where the safety of your children is concerned, we do not take any chances.

Are you a member of any trade organisations?

Yes. We are members of the British Inflators Hirers Alliance,Pipa/Rpii and BCN (Bouncy Castle Network)
