Yes and Yes!

-We are insured. 

Does your venue or event need an insured vendor? We can add your event as secondary insured on our policy. Let us know if you require this at time of booking as requires additional fee.

-North Carolina requires amusement companies to be inspected annually. This includes Inflatable operators.

Both the above are requirements for operating in NC. 

 As you seek out an inflatable company, your first question likely is what Inflatables do you have. Maybe worth adding one more – is your company insured and inspected for NC.

We make every attempt to meet requested times for customers, however due to routing and the event time schedule this is not always possible. Delivery time window is text evening before your event. Typically we are able to give a one hour window. Our goal is to arrive no less than 1 hour before start time. Should delivery time received be hours prior to event start, do not worry as your event time is still in place.

Pickup times could be at end time booked or several hours depending on our workload. 

Wait Time: 

Setup: Should we arrive for setup within the specified time supplied and no one is home or waiting on access or area to be cleared. We charge $15 for 15 minutes and round up after changes to next 15 minute interval.

Pickups: Should we arrive and be delayed due to vehicles or other items blocking access, rate is $25 for 15 minutes and round up after changes to next 15 minute interval.

Party Events are very time sensitive. Our waiting time policy is necessary for us to provide the service level you would expect and be fair to all customers. Our business depends on managing items within our control to keep on schedule.
