Delivery Policy
At The Bounce Hut, we do our best to accommodate everyone's party/event. We attempt to deliver our inflatable bouncers and slides as early as possible, and as on time as possible. The delivery time quoted to you is an approximate time only. Due to unforeseen events and strenuous delivery schedules, actual delivery time may vary. Please make sure you give us the time of your party, so that we can ensure that your inflatable bouncer is up and ready to go for your party. In most cases, all bouncers are delivered within forty-five minutes before the event, and picked up within an hour or two after the event. Please inquire within for specific needs.
Rental Agreement & Inspection Checklist
All customers are required to sign a rental agreement and review the inspection checklist. Please review these carefully.
Deposits
A valid credit is required to hold a reservation. The only exception to this is with organizations (schools, churches, etc) with which we have made prior arrangements to waive the credit card info requirement. When you place a reservation with us, you may be asked to provide this credit card information during the reservation process.
Cancellations
You may cancel your reservation up to 7 days before the event at no cost to you. This allows us enough time to attempt to rent the equipment to someone else. If you cancel any less than 3 days before the event, you will be responsible to pay us 25% of the rental fee, excluding any sales tax, due to the unlikelihood of us being able to rent that equipment to others. The only exception to this policy is if the event is cancelled due to weather on the day of the event (see "Weather Policy" below). In that case, you may cancel the event at no cost to you. We will contact you in the morning on the day of the event, if the weather is inclement or is forecast to be, and let you decide if you wish to cancel. If you tell us to deliver the equipment at this time, you are responsible for the entire rental fee. No refunds will be issued on additional insured fees under any circumstances.
Weather Policy
The Bounce Hut reserves the right to cancel the delivery of any of our rental equipment when we believe weather conditions are unsafe for its use. If we believe conditions are safe, but rain is present or is forecast, we will leave it up to the customer (see "Cancellations" above).
Staking of Inflatable's
The Bounce Hut will not be held responsible for any underground utilities, sprinkler systems, septic systems, electrical, rocks, etc. when staking down inflatable's.
Public Property Events
Most municipalities have additional insurance requirements when setting up on public property. It is the customer's responsibility to contact the municipality to find out these requirements, if any, and communicate that information to us.
Sod/Grass
The Bounce Hut will not be responsible for any damage to sod or grass.
Equipment Damage or Abuse
We do not hold our customers responsible for equipment failure from normal use and when our equipment has been used as instructed. However, the customer is responsible for any damage to or abuse of our equipment while it is their possession. If any repair to our equipment or replacement of our equipment is necessary due to customer damage or abuse, whether by them or those present at their event, we will charge their credit card to either repair or replace our equipment as needed.
Equipment Cleaning
We expect to clean out the normal grass and leaves that accumulate in the inflatable's from normal use and we do not charge customers for this type of cleaning. However, no other foreign objects should ever be allowed in the inflatable's and we will charge a $25 an hour cleaning fee to remove them. These items include, but are not limited to: silly string, liquids, beverages, food of any type, candy, sand, rocks and toys. Water should never be applied to any inflatable not specifically designed for use with water. If you apply water to an inflatable not designed for its use we will charge a $100 charge to clean and dry the inflatable.
Removal of Silly String like substances
If silly string or any similar substance is permitted to come in contact with the inside or outside of the inflatable unit, a $200.00 cleaning fee shall be automatically imposed by The Bounce Hut. If, in our opinion, the damage is severe enough to render the unit un-rentable, the customer will be responsible for the replacement of the unit (minimum $1,000), at full replacement price, and any loss of revenue until the replacement arrives. The reason for this policy is that the chemicals in these products cause irreparable damage to the inflatable and the cleaners that have to be used to remove them also cause additional damage.
Removal of Bio-hazards
A $100 cleaning fee will automatically be imposed for the removal of any human or animal by-product. These include blood, urine, feces, vomit, nasal fluids, and saliva.
Delivery Policy
All of our rentals include free local delivery, setup and removal. Upon delivery, we will walk you through safety rules prior to and after set up of the bounce house. Safety is our primary concern. With that in mind, The Bounce Hut reserves the right to cancel any reservation that, in the opinion of The Bounce Hut’s representative, it deems a danger or jeopardizes safety in any way. The dimensions of all of our equipment are listed in the item descriptions. If we deliver equipment to the specified location and the equipment cannot be set-up because the area is inaccessible or not suitable for safe set-up, you will be responsible to pay 50% of the total rental fee. Unsuitable areas can be caused by: animal excrement, vegetation, not enough ground space including a 3' safety zone around all inflatable's, inadequate access to set-up location, overhead obstructions or unsuitable ground material like sharp gravel or any substance which may damage the equipment.
Your Data
Keeping your data safe is another area we take very seriously. We will never share or sell any of that info with anybody.
- Always have a responsible adult present to supervise others.
- Use common sense in supervising use of the unit. If something does not look right, you should stop it immediately.
- All riders should be in the same group (i.e.: the same related size).
- Never jump on a partially inflated unit.
- Do not plug and unplug blower repeatedly, as it will cause it to burn up.
- Never put a hose or water on the unit.
- Remove shoes and any sharp objects from your person or in pockets.
- Do not allow riders to hang or pull on netting.
- In case of rain, remove riders and unplug motor and extension cord from wall.
