We're delighted to offer you more bounce for your buck! Our party rental rates include up to 8 hours of use time. This is our standard—not the exception—setting us apart from many competitors who may offer only 4-6 hours for a similar price.

Important: The 8-hour rental window is the time your guests can use the inflatable. Setup and teardown occur outside your rental period—so you get the full time for fun!

There are some exceptions: Select specialty items like mechanical bulls, bungee trampolines, trackless trains, and rock walls are mandatorily staffed and priced per hour. These exceptions are clearly detailed in their descriptions.

Definitely! With Inflatable Party Magic, you can rent a bounce house for as little or as much time as you would like. Our base price covers up to 8 hours. Renting for more than 8 hours would increase the price listed, but shorter rentals are always welcome at the same great rate.

They are a true, full 8 hours of use. Your rental time starts when setup is complete and the equipment is ready for your guests—not when our truck pulls up. Our delivery crew arrives before your rental start time to set up everything, so you don't lose a single minute to setup or teardown.

Need even more time? You can extend beyond 8 hours at just 7% per additional hour, add an overnight rental for $75, or get second-day rentals at 50% off.

With Inflatable Party Magic, there are none. Every rental price includes up to 8 hours of rental time, professional delivery, complete setup, and full takedown.

The only additional costs are shown upfront during booking—no surprises at delivery:

• Travel fees based on your ZIP code and distance (calculated automatically at checkout)
• Sandbag setup fees for concrete or hard surface installations
• Generator rental if you don't have an electrical outlet within 100 feet
• Staffed attraction hourly rates for items like mechanical bulls, rock climbing walls, and trackless trains (clearly noted in each item's description)

Our prices include delivery, setup, and pickup to many of our local areas. Areas further from our Cleburne location may incur a small travel fee calculated based on ZIP code and distance.

Once you enter your ZIP code on our website, any travel fees will be shown immediately—no surprises! We keep our prices as low as possible and are often less expensive than competitors even after travel fees.

Most parks do NOT have electricity available for bounce houses or inflatables. If you want to set up an inflatable at a park, you must rent a generator from us.

Park setups do incur an additional $100 park setup fee. This covers the extra time, equipment, and logistics required for park installations.

View Generator Rentals

First and foremost, we need a clear pathway with at least a 4-foot-wide gate or door to get the inflatable through. Some larger inflatables require wider openings—check individual item requirements.

Inflatables are transported on a dolly, so we need a clear path. We cannot lift inflatables over an air conditioning unit or go upstairs.

Surface Requirements:

• Grass (Preferred): Inflatables can be staked down for ultimate safety
• Concrete: Requires sandbags instead of stakes (extra charge applies). Not allowed in winds over 15 mph for safety
• Indoor: Available with proper equipment to prevent movement on gym floors. Confirm ceiling height when booking

The setup area must be flat with minimal grade. Each inflatable listing includes specific space dimensions needed.

Power requirements vary by inflatable, but every bounce house and water slide requires at least one blower. Some larger units require multiple blowers.

For each blower, you need:

• A power source within 100 feet of the setup location
• An outlet that supports 12 amps
• A 20-amp breaker will only support ONE blower (this is standard for most residential outlets)

Don't have adequate electrical access? This is common for Fort Worth parks and some backyards. You can rent a generator from us to solve the problem!

Yes—you'll need hoses long enough to reach from your water outlet to the water slide location. Important: "Grow hoses" do not work—use standard garden hoses for proper water pressure.

Make sure to check the distance from your spigot to the setup area and have adequate hose length ready before delivery day!

We handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on your guests. Here's how it works:

What we provide:

• Delivery on a dolly through a gate or entry at least 4 feet wide
• Complete setup including inflation, staking or anchoring, and safety checks
• Full takedown and pickup at the end of your rental
• Safety instructions covering rules, weight limits, and capacity

What you provide:

• Power — a standard household outlet within 100 feet per blower
• A water hose connection for water slides (standard garden hoses only—no "grow" hoses)
• Adult supervision while the inflatable is in use

Start Planning Your Party

Choosing the right water slide depends on the ages of your guests:

• 10–16 ft slides: Perfect for younger children (ages 3-10) and mixed family groups
• 17–26 ft slides: Ideal for teens and adults who want thrills
• Slip-n-slides and obstacle courses: Great for competitive fun with teens and adults

Each water slide listing includes recommended age ranges and capacity limits. Not sure which to choose? Call us at 817-800-8618 and we'll help you pick the perfect slide!

Browse Water Slides by Size

No — you will need to provide your own water hoses. You'll need enough hose length to reach from your water spigot all the way to where the water slide is set up in your yard or venue.

Before your rental day, measure the distance from your nearest outdoor water outlet to your planned setup spot and make sure you have enough hose to cover it. If you need multiple hoses connected together, that's perfectly fine — just make sure all connections are tight so you maintain good water flow.
