Common Questions
1. Scattered showers are fine, but if the weather forecasts 60% chance of heavy rain throughout the whole day or winds exceeding 30km per hour we may have to cancel the delivery for safety reasons. If you would like to make changes, there is no fee to cancel as long as you inform us before we make the final decision to go ahead with the booking (usually 1 or 2 days before the delivery date).
2. Once we have confirmation to proceed with the booking, we have to pay our employees for their hard work and therefore we require full payment regardless of use. Our main safety concern is wind. When winds go higher than approx. 30km per hour, bouncy castles become unsafe regardless of our tie down methods. If you are concerned, please call our office.
Please Note: In severe wind conditions, regardless of our tie down methods, the inflatables become unsafe
2. You will need to ask if there is power available and if metal stakes can be used to secure the bouncy castle. If there is no power available, we can supply a generator for $88 (including fuel). Sometimes the local authorities will not allow metal stakes to be used due to the risk of damage to reticulation. If this is the case, sandbags or water drums can be hired for an additional $20.
3. Email the completed form back to the local council and “cc” us at support@perthbouncycastlehire.com.au
4. We will liaise with the local council and provide them any information including our Public Liability Insurance and Work Safe Documents if required to speed up your application. We will always “cc” you in the process.
5. Your application will then be approved.
6. Access Required: Depending on which inflatable you hire, we may require vehicle access and need to arrive several hours earlier to set up.
7. Upon arrival, we will require someone to be present to guide us on the location of the set up, access to the power source and go through the safety and hire procedures.
6. On the day of the event, we will arrive no later than 1 hour minutes before the start time. Please have your mobile nearby incase we need to get in contact with you.
PLEASE NOTE: A Responsible Adult Must Be Present And Supervising the Children At All Times During The Period Of Hire.
2. Please make sure there is clear access to the set up area before we arrive. We do not bring bouncy castles up stairs. We will need at least 1m width to push the bouncy castle through side walks, gates etc.
3. Tell us where you would like to set it up?
4. Which way you would like the bouncy castle to face?
5. Where the closest power outlets are? (we will require a power outlet that is not shared with other devices)
6. Any reticulation will need to be clearly marked as we do not take responsibility for any damages to the underground piping.
7. After we set it up for you, we will go through our safety and hire agreement.
8. We will arrive no later than 1 hour before the hire start time to make sure the bouncy castle is ready before the party starts. In most cases we will arrive much earlier depending on the schedule that day.
9. We will then return at the allocated time to clean and pack away the castle. That’s it!

And here are some IMPORTANT NOTES which will serve as your guide on the day of the set up:
4. If there is reticulation there, could you please clearly mark out the areas as we do not accept responsibility for any damaged piping. (our metail stakes are nearly 60cm long) If you are unsure, Sandbags can be hired for an additional $20.5. A minimum of 1.2m wide access is required into the set up area. Please note we do not carry bouncy castles over air conditioner units, water heaters and up or down steps. Please notify us immediately if your access does not comply with our requirements.
