General FAQs

How do I place an order?
- Just call us at 919-255-3335. We recommend reserving as soon as you're sure of what you need, since during busy times we do run out of product. You can use the cart for planning purposes if you desire, but as of yet there is no way to reserve inventory online. In order to reserve, we require a 1/2 down deposit. The balance is due the day before delivery.

Is there a deadline for placing an order?
- We do not have a deadline, but during busy months we will run out of rental items and delivery slots, so we recommend booking in advance so you can be sure to get what you want.

Can I pick up these tables so I don't have to pay the delivery fee?
- Absolutely. Almost everything but tents can be picked up with a big enough vehicle.

Where are you Located?
- We are located at 704 Beacon Lake Dr. in Raleigh, North Carolina. See our Directions and Map. We currently have one location, but we can deliver anywhere.

Do you deliver to ########?
- We deliver anywhere. Delivery within Raleigh, Wake Forest, or Knightdale is $60 during normal business hours. For delivery outside those areas, please see our list of Standard Delivery Rates. If your city is not on the list, we will calculate your delivery rate by multiplying $3 / mile from our warehouse.

  

Inflatables / Games FAQs

Will a Bounce Castle fit into the back of my SUV?
- Most of our inflatables will fit into the back of a pick-up truck, SUV, or even a minivan with fold-down seats. Please note that inflatables are heavy--if you are picking it up from our warehouse, we can help you load it into your vehicle, but it takes at least two to unload it.

How do I set up a bounce castle?
- We can set up your bounce castle when we deliver it, or you can set it up yourself--it isn't difficult. All you need to do is spread the tarp (included), unroll the bounce castle / slide, and plug the air pump into an ordinary wall plug. The 13'x13' castle inflates in 5-10 minutes; larger inflatables take a little longer. NOTE: Inflatables draw a lot of power. Be sure you don't overload your circuit.

How large is the Dunk Tank? Can I pick it up from your warehouse myself?
- Our dunk tank holds 500 gallons of water. You can pick it up yourself if you have a truck or an SUV with a 2" ball hitch. It comes on its own trailer. The water is not included. It takes 1-2 hours to fill the dunk tank, depending on your water pressure.

   

I'm interested in buying (not renting) a used tent/table/chair/tablecloth. Do you sell used rental items? How much would that cost?
- Yes, anything we rent we can sell. Call us at 919-255-3335 for pricing. Please do not e-mail these requests.

Tent FAQs

I'm having a wedding reception with 100 guests. What size tent do I need?
- You can use our tent layouts to get a rough estimate, but for firmer numbers, call us at (919) 255-3335.

What is the difference between a frame tent and a pole tent?
- Our small tents are only available in frame style, but our larger tents are available in both frame and pole styles. Pole tents are easier to erect and can stay up for 1-3 days. They are popular for wedding receptions because people like their sweeping, elegant curves. Frame tents take more time to erect, but can stay up for weeks or even months.

Can I pick up a 10x10 tent from your warehouse and put it up myself?
- Yes. Our 10x10 tent comes in three bags, each about the size of a golf bag, and can be put up in about an hour. We also rent pop-up tents of the same size that can go up in about five minutes. However, any tent larger than 10x10 will not fit into most non-commercial vehicles, and is too large for one person to set up by themselves.
