How
far in advance should I make my reservations?
Please make your reservations as soon as possible. All of our inflatables
(bounces and slides) are very popular and sometimes we are booked weeks and
even months in advance. The sooner you call, the more likely you are to be
able to obtain the item you want. Return to top of page.
How much room do I need?
Approximately a 20' by 20' area should be plenty of room for the bounces
and a 20' by 38' area for the slide. The area should be level, free of
rocks, sticks, etc. and any in ground sprinkler systems should be shut off
and not sticking up. The unit must be within 100 feet of an electrical
outlet. If no electrical service is available, inquire about our portable
generator rentals. The inflatables can also be used indoors. Please specify which
surface the inflatable is to be set up on, so that we can provide the
appropriate anchors. Please clean and clear the area for the inflatable
prior to our arrival time. Return to top of page.
Who sets up the inflatable?
We set up the bounce or slide and take it
down when we come to pick it up. This is done to ensure your safety and the
safety of the equipment. Set up time is approximately 15-20 minutes for the
bounces and 20-25 minutes for the slide. We ask that if you are done with
the bounce or slide please DO NOT shut down the blower. The bounce or slide
must be inflated before it is taken down so that we can inspect and possibly
do a preliminary cleaning of the unit. Return to top of page.
What time do you deliver and pick up the inflatable?
You decide on the specific rental time and we will be there anywhere from
30 minutes to 3 hours before that for set up. You do not pay for set up or
take down time. Your rental period is for a day, typically 8 hours.
Additional hours and overnight set ups are available for a minimal
additional charge. We pick up the unit after the party is over, but please
allow up to 3 hours for pick up. If an exact delivery or pick up time is
needed, just let us know. We will be more than happy to make any
arrangements that you may need. Return to top of page.
How does the
inflatable unit stay inflated?
We setup the unit and inflate the bounce or slide with a fully enclosed
blower motor that must stay on the entire time that the inflatable unit is
being used (unless winds exceed 25 mph or it starts to rain, in which case
the motor must be shut down). There are no moving parts exposed on the
blower unit, which is a very important safety feature when there are
children around. The blower unit must be located within 100 feet of an
electrical outlet. Return to top of page.
Can I cancel my
reservation?
Yes. All cancellations must be called in the at least the day before your
rental.
We do our best to accommodate all
customers in times of uncertain weather and/or emergency conditions. For
this reason, we stay tuned day and night to the local weather conditions in
and approaching our area. We ask that all customers do their part and stay
informed as to any weather conditions approaching their area. In order for
us to better serve all customers, we have developed what we feel is a fair
policy for cancellations and rain checks. Sometimes rain may be occurring in
one town but not the town right next to it, and it might only last a few
minutes. For this reason WE DO NOT CANCEL DUE TO WEATHER, this decision is
left solely to the customer. Please feel free to give us a call should you
have any questions regarding our policies.
Customers should call by 5:00 PM the day before their rental to check on
their scheduled delivery time. In order for all customers to be delivered on
time we occasionally deliver several hours in advance of scheduled rental
time. The customer is responsible for notifying the office BETWEEN 7:00 -
8:00 AM OR BEFORE THE DRIVER DELIVERS ON THE DAY OF THEIR RENTAL if they
need to cancel the rental. Once the equipment is delivered there is NO
REFUND. All decisions to cancel due to weather or any other reason need to
be made BEFORE the scheduled delivery time, even if the equipment is
delivered early. We ask that the customer be informed of all weather
conditions approaching by watching or listening to their local news. If a
verbal acceptance of the delivery is given over the phone on the morning of
the delivery and the customer declines the rental when the driver gets to
the rental location, the customer loses their deposit and no rain check will
be given. Return to top of page.
Do you require a deposit?
Yes, Incredible Inflatables requires a $50.00 deposit per inflatable play
structure when placing an order. Deposits are required within 48 hours from
the time the order is taken to guarantee reservation (24 hrs. if order is
placed the same week as the rental). Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE. If
cancelled due to weather or emergency we will hold your deposit for up to
one (1) year from rental date in a rain check file. Only for those two
reasons will a refund be held in a rain check file, no exceptions. No
refunds will be given once equipment contract is signed, so please inform us
in advance if canceling your rental. Deposits can be cash, check, money
order or credit card. Checks must be received 48 hours after the reservation
and must be at least one week prior to the rental, if not, then a credit
card must be used for the deposit. If using a credit card, your card will
not be billed unless you cancel the full balance will be charged at the time
of delivery, essentially you credit card number will act as your deposit.
The total or remaining balance will be due at the time of delivery.

What is the policy in case of rain, cold temperatures or high wind?
THE INFLATABLE BOUNCES MUST NOT BE USED WHEN WET INSIDE, CURRENTLY
RAINING, THE TEMPERATURE IS LESS THAN 45° FAHRENHEIT, OR WHEN WINDS EXCEED
25 MPH! THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE! If it starts to rain and the
inside of the bounce gets wet, everyone should exit the bounce, the blower
unit should be turned off at the unit, and then unplugged. The bounce unit
becomes very slippery and dangerous when wet. Once the rain stops, plug the
blower unit back in and turn it on. You can wait for the unit to dry or dry
it with towels. Once dry, the bounce should be once again safe to use.
**Please call us at 334-546-8116 if you have weather related questions
once your unit has been set up. No refunds will be given once the inflatable
has been setup and the equipment contract signed. Return to
top of page.
Can your
inflatables be set up indoors?
Yes, our units can be set up inside or outside! You will need to have
enough ceiling height (about 18-20) to accommodate the inflatable. The
inflatable must not be set up to near hot lights, a/c vents, or any fire
hazard. Many commercial halls, malls, gyms, etc. will do just fine.
Return to top of page.
Can I set up
the inflatable near my pool?
No. Safety is our number one concern. The bounce or slide must be set up
a safe distance from any pool, at least 20 feet. Return to
top of page.
Why can't I pick up the inflatable and set it up myself to cut costs?
Safety is our number one concern. Some companies will allow the customer
to pick up & set up the units, we do not feel that is a safe idea. The
owners of the company personally set up and pick up every rental. The set up
area will be evaluated, the correct size, type, and length of power cord
will be used and they make sure all of the connections are correctly made.
We will use the proper straps, stakes, tie downs, and anchors to secure the
inflatable to the ground and ensure its safe operation. Also, each unit is
rather large and weighs in excess of 220 and up to 600 pounds, so your safety in transport
of these items is also our concern. Return to top of page.
How safe are your
inflatables?
Our inflatables are constructed with quality and safety in mind! All of
our units have a safety entrance/exit ramp for the children's protection and
safety and emergency exit flaps in the roof. Each unit is constructed of
only the very best American made commercial grade 18 to 21 oz. vinyl, with
double and quadruple stitching. All of the materials are fire retardant. The
windows of the bounces are made of specially designed mesh netting, which
allows for easy viewing and minimizes the chances of getting entangled. Each
of our inflatables is equipped with a non-removable list of rules. We will
also supply recommended guidelines for safe use and recommended number of
children allowed in the inflatable at any one time. Beware of cheap, unsafe,
imitation inflatables! Return to top of page.
What methods of
payment do you accept?
For your convenience, we accept cash, checks, money orders, Visa,
MasterCard, and Discover. In the very near future, we
will be able to accept your payments through a secure online transactions. Please make checks or money orders payable to
Incredible Inflatables. Our prices reflect a cash discount of 3%. If you pay
by credit card, you are required to pay a 3% surcharge. For example, it
costs $150.00 to rent a Space Walker Product. If you pay by credit card, the
price to rent a Space Walker Rental is $154.50. Return to top
of page.
