Due to the weekends being extremely busy, we may not be able to deliver to locations outside our service area. Weekdays are less busy and typically allow us to deliver to locations farther out. Please refer to the “Do the listed prices include delivery?” above for a list of serviceable cities or towns. If you have further questions, feel free to contact us.
Yes and No. We deliver for free within 10 miles of our location in Oregon, Ohio. If you are outside this area, see our Delivery pricing below. Prices do not include sales tax.
All of our rentals are priced for 2 or 8 hours on weekends. This would be renting between 9 AM -12 PM the day of, or 5 PM – 8 PM the day of. Weekdays are set at a 24 Hour window, where the rental occurs between 5-7 PM the day before or 4-7 PM the day of. We also can-do time sensitive rentals. The cost of the rental is not changed if usage falls less than the offered hours. Due to expenses such as insurance, fuel, labor, and cleaning costs there are no discounts given for rental periods less than those allotted. If you need a time sensitive rental, make sure to notify us know and we will work to accommodate your needs.
In the event that rain, thunderstorms or high winds are present or in the forecast on your event day, we will call you on the evening before or morning of your event to discuss options. If we feel as though the participants will not be safe, we WILL cancel the rental. Safety is our absolute FIRST priority!
If we feel as though the participants will be safe, we will let you make the call. If Bay Area Bounce Rentals decide to cancel the rental due to severe or possible severe weather conditions, you will receive a full refund of deposit, or have the option to reschedule.
Please keep in mind that if you decide to continue with the rental, there will be NO REFUNDS given if you are unable to use the equipment due to severe weather conditions.
We will call you after your booking to set you in the time slot, also the day before to confirm that someone will be at the party location and to confirm your delivery time. If things change, please give us as much notice as possible so we can accommodate your changes in our scheduling.
No. The jump should be clean when you get it. Bay Area Bounce Rentals cleans and disinfects after every rental and double checks them when we set up.
The inflatable should be within 100ft. of a 110v outlet. We will supply the power cord, but we do ask that nothing else be plugged into the outlet being used. Some of our larger inflatables may require multiple outlets on separate circuits.
The use of a generator is usually required for any public or large event, or any area where an electrical outlet is not within 100′. Please contact us if you have any concerns about the power requirements for your inflatable.
We do have generators that can handle 2-3 inflatables that are available for rent. Please ask us for more details.
Yes. A blower keeps air in the inflatable the entire time. Once unplugged they deflate. That´s why we require an outlet within 100′ of the inflatable or the use of a generator. Longer or small gauge cords can pop your circuit breaker so we bring our own heavy-duty cords.
In the case of high winds (over 15mph), thunderstorms, rain, or lightning we do mandate everyone exit the unit, shut off the power, and unplug.
Most City and State parks in Ohio do NOT allow inflatables to be installed. Some may allow it but a permit needs to be purchased and issued.
This would be something you would be responsible to do. Please contact the park or location in question before reserving. If you have further questions feel free to contact us for support.
Cash or Credit Cards. We REQUIRE a credit card on file to rent. Deposits MUST be made by credit card. If paying your balance by cash, please have exact change as our drivers do not carry cash.
Any remaining balance that will be paid by credit card must be done prior to the event set-up. We do accept credit as a form of payment at set up.
*NOTE* We do accept checks from Schools / Parents’ Clubs / Church Organizations, etc. However, the check cannot be from a member. It must be in the name of the organization and must clear 7 days or more prior to the event date.
If you have any questions regarding our check policy, please call us 419-344-8180 or email us at: bayareabouncerentals@gmail.com
You may cancel your reservation at any time, however, a refund of deposit is ONLY granted due to weather cancellations on the morning of your event. Any other type of cancellation will result in the forfeiture of deposit.
Yes. All orders require a $50.00 Credit Card deposit for each item rented. For orders over $500.00, a deposit of 50% is due to reserve. We do NOT rent or make reservations without a credit card on file.
Our inflatables vary in size. Please note the space required for each jump (listed near the large picture) as some are VERY big and require extra space. When in doubt, measure your space to make sure it will fit. Slides need room to be staked and they need room for the blower and can´t rub against walls or trees as this may damage the jump. The sizes listed with each jump include the space needed for stakes etc. If you have stairs or a tiered backyard, please call our office to discuss options for setup.
Check the requirements listed with each jump. Also, make sure you have at least a 4´ access to the area where it will be set up. The jumps can weigh up to 600 pounds so we need a clear path with ample room.
We can set up on Grass (our favorite and best for the kids), asphalt, concrete and indoors. Sorry, we can´t set up on any type of rocks as the constant rubbing will wear through the vinyl jumps. We also do not set up on dirt or sand. *NOTE* For any set up that is not on grass (or stakes cannot be used), there will be a $50.00 anchoring fee added per inflatable.
Yes. You will be able to see, read and sign the contract thru this website when you are placing your order. Also attached will be your invoice with a few pre-delivery check list questions and also a delivery check list that we will go over with you after setup to make sure you have a clear understanding of the rules and safety procedures. You also may contact us and we could email you a copy at service@bayareabouncerental.com
Yes and no. You are not responsible for normal wear and tear on our units. Seams may develop tears in high traffic areas over a period of time. If this happens, please alert us at once so we can remedy the situation. If, however, damage occurs due to failure to follow our safety rules or negligence (i.e. not turning off the blower in high winds, wearing shoes, silly string stains, etc.) you will be responsible for all damages up to and including replacement of the unit/blower etc. which can cost thousands of dollars. We don´t want you or us to be in that situation which is why we have you sign and initial on all of our safety rules so that you can be the trained operator.
Yes! We will be glad to e-mail you a copy of our insurance information upon request. If you require a paper copy, please notify us within 3 days prior to your event. We will provide you with it at set up.
Yes. All of our inflatables are inspected yearly by the Ohio Department of Agriculture – Amusement Ride Safety Division. This is a requirement by the state of Ohio. We can provide that also if needed.
We will need you (the renter) or the home owner to greet us and show us where you would like the unit set up. If the renter or home owner are not present, we will not set up. We will also need to see the renters valid ID and go over the operating & safety instructions after setup. This usually only takes 10-15 minutes. Lastly, we will need a clear path from the street or driveway to the set-up location. Our team members can be more efficient without vehicles and other obstacles in the path to the set-up area.
Yes. Please let us know if you plan to host your event somewhere other than your home. It is our policy to have the reservation in the name of the renter AND home owner on our rental agreement. Valid ID must match renting location
We need to ensure a clean flat surface (no rocks, sticks, pet droppings, etc.) and we need you to mark any underground utilities (sprinklers, cable, power or gas lines) that you or contractors may have installed. If you are unsure of underground lines, you may contact OUPS in Ohio by calling 811. OUPS will come out and mark any utility lines installed by the utility companies (Edison, Gas, Cable, etc.). These lines must be marked before we will install. We recommend calling 1-2 weeks before the event date. OUPS will only mark main utility lines for water, gas and electricity. Any utility lines installed by you, previous homeowners or contractors will not be marked by OUPS. You, (homeowner) are required to make us aware of any utility lines that we may come into contact with. We are not responsible for damage done when setting up or taking down equipment on your property involving utilities/utility related equipment.
Yes, currently all of our units can be used with water.
It is the renter’s responsibility to provide us with an adequate power source. All of our blowers plug into a standard 110v outlet. If there are no outdoor receptacles available, it is best for us to plug-in to kitchen or laundry room outlets. Even though most receptacles have 2 outlets, we can only plug in 1 blower and nothing else can be plugged into the other side. For rentals that require multiple blowers, it is not unusual for us to have to run extension cords to different locations. **NOTE** The maximum amount of extension cord that can be ran from the blower to the power source is 100′. You are not required to provide us with an extension cord. We bring our own heavy-duty cords. If, at your location, it is determined that a generator is needed, we will need to know this at least one day in advance. If our team is setting up and it is determined at that time that a generator is needed, we will do our best to get a generator to the location, but it is not guaranteed. We are on a tight schedule and do not carry spare generators on the truck. The full amount of the generator rental fee will need to be satisfied to our driver in cash before we will attempt to get one to your location.
No. We are a delivery and pick up service. The pricing includes the equipment only.
Unfortunately, not. Just like our delivery schedule, we also have a pick-up schedule that we must stick to. To purchase additional time, the request must be made at least 24 hours in advance.
Please leave them inside until we’ve left. We do highly recommend using a leash from set-up till after pick-up to keep them away from the unit Nails, chewing (biting) and urine can cause damage that you would be responsible for. It is very important that pets do not walk on or urinate on the inflatable.
Absolutely, please let us know of your scheduling requirements ahead of time for proper reservations. An overnight rental is considered a two-day rental @ 40% discount on the second day.
Due to our busy delivery and pick up schedules on weekends, we will try our best to accommodate time sensitive rentals. If your party is at a church, school, business, etc., we will try to deliver and pick up as close to the scheduled times as possible, however, there are no guarantees. There is still a possibility that we may need to set up 1-3 hours before your scheduled start time and/or pick up 1-3 hours after your end time. The renter MUST stay with the equipment after set up and until pick up.
It is something we usually DON’T do, but give us a call and see if we have anything open and can accommodate you. If we can accommodate you there will be a 20% fee added.
