DFW Party Rental Pricing, Flexible Payments & What's Included in Every Rental
Transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Every rental includes a full 8-hour period, professional delivery and setup, sanitized equipment, and $1 million in occurrence-based liability insurance. Staffed attractions have their own rental terms and are clearly noted. Pay your way with flexible payment plans that fit any budget.
We know that price matters when you are planning a party. We also know that the cheapest option is not always the best option — especially when your children's safety is involved. This page breaks down exactly what you get with every Inflatable Party Magic rental, what costs extra, and how our flexible payment options let you plan ahead without financial stress.
What's Included in Every Rental — No Surprises
Every single rental from Inflatable Party Magic includes the following at no additional charge. This is not a premium package or an upgrade — this is our standard for every customer, every time.
Included with Every Rental
- Full 8-Hour Rental Period — most competitors offer only 4 to 6 hours for similar prices. Our 8-hour window gives you time to set up your party, enjoy the event, and wrap up without rushing. Note: Staffed attractions such as mechanical bulls, rock climbing walls, trackless trains, and euro bungee trampolines have their own rental terms and time frames, which are clearly noted in each item's description.
- Professional Delivery, Setup & Takedown — our trained, background-checked crew handles everything. You never set up your own equipment.
- Cleaned & Sanitized Equipment — every bounce house, water slide, and inflatable is deep cleaned and disinfected after every rental using commercial-grade and hospital-grade products.
- State-Inspected Equipment — every unit in our inventory is inspected annually by a TDI-approved state inspector. We have maintained full compliance for our entire 20+ year history.
- $1 Million Occurrence-Based Liability Insurance — the strongest form of coverage available, protecting you and your guests regardless of when a claim is filed.
- Workers' Compensation & Commercial Auto Insurance — our employees and vehicles are fully covered, so you are never exposed to liability from our operations.
- Written Safety Rules — emailed before your event and posted on the equipment, tailored to each specific rental item.
- Real-Time Weather Monitoring — we watch conditions and contact you if severe weather threatens your event.
⚠️ Why this matters: Many DFW rental companies advertise lower prices but offer only 4 to 6 hours, charge extra for delivery and setup, do not carry proper insurance, and may not be state-inspected. When you compare what is actually included, our 8-hour rentals with full service and full insurance coverage are often the better value — even before you factor in safety and reliability.

What Costs Extra — Complete Transparency
We believe you deserve to know every possible cost before you book. Here is a complete list of add-ons and additional fees. There are no hidden charges — if it is not on this list, you will not be charged for it.
| Add-On / Fee | Details |
|---|---|
| Travel Fee | Based on your zip code and distance from our facility. Entered automatically when you book online. Many DFW zip codes qualify for free delivery. |
| Exact-Time Delivery or Pickup | $75–$100 fee for park events or any event that requires delivery or pickup at a specific time with no flexibility. Our standard delivery window allows us to route efficiently across DFW — when your venue requires an exact arrival or departure time, this fee covers the dedicated scheduling. |
| Extra Hours | +7% per additional hour beyond the standard 8-hour rental period. Need your rental a little longer? Just let us know. |
| Overnight Rental | +$75 flat fee. Keep the equipment overnight and we pick it up the next day. |

| Generator Rental | Available when your setup location does not have access to a power outlet within 100 feet. Price varies by unit size. |
| Professional Attendants | Trained staff available at an hourly rate for large events, church functions, school events, and corporate gatherings where hosts want to enjoy the event rather than supervise equipment. |
| Sandbag Setup | Required when setting up on concrete, asphalt, or other hard surfaces where stakes cannot be used. Extra charge applies. |
| Damage Waiver | Optional coverage for unintentional damages. Does not cover damage from fireworks, animals, theft, or vandalism. |
Everything listed above is disclosed at the time of booking. Our online system calculates your travel fee automatically based on your address so you see your total before you submit your order.
How Inflatable Party Magic Compares: Know What You're Getting
Not all party rental companies are equal. When you compare pricing, make sure you are comparing what is actually included. Here is an honest look at the three types of inflatable rental options available in the DFW area and what you can expect from each.
Budget / Craigslist Rentals
⚠️ Lowest Price — Highest RiskAdvertised prices look great, but here is what you are often giving up:
- Typically 4-hour rental window — sometimes less
- Customer self-setup (you inflate and anchor it yourself)
- No state inspection — may be operating illegally
- No liability insurance or claims-made policies only
- No workers' comp — you could be liable if a worker is injured at your home
- Equipment cleanliness is unknown
- No written contract, no safety rules provided
- High no-show risk — we get calls every weekend from families whose rental company never showed up
Inflatable Party Magic

- Flexible payment plans — book early, pay over time
- 1,200+ five-star reviews and 20+ years in business
- Written safety rules, weather monitoring, full support
Full-Scale Event Production Companies
Corporate-Level Service & CostThe right choice for high-end corporate events and large festivals:
- Full event planning and coordination
- Dedicated project managers and event staff
- Custom branding and theming
- Significantly higher pricing — often 3 to 5 times more
- Minimum spend requirements common
- Best suited for large corporate accounts and multi-day festivals
- Not typically cost-effective for birthday parties, church events, or school functions
For the vast majority of DFW families, churches, schools, and mid-size corporate events, Inflatable Party Magic provides the safety and professionalism of a premium operation at prices that work for real family budgets. You should never have to choose between your children's safety and your budget.
Flexible Payment Plans — Book Now, Pay Over Time
At Inflatable Party Magic, we believe that budgeting should never stop you from planning an amazing party. That is why we offer flexible payment options that let you spread your payments out over time so your party can be completely paid off before it even arrives.
How Our Flexible Payments Work
- Book with a small deposit — a deposit of 15% or $50 (whichever is greater) reserves your date and the exact equipment you want.
- Choose your own payment schedule — make weekly, monthly, or quarterly payments. There is no set schedule — you pay at whatever pace works for your budget.
- Balance due before setup — your remaining balance just needs to be paid before we deliver. Many customers start months in advance and have their party completely paid off well before the event date.
- Make payments easily — call our office at (817) 800-8618 to make a payment anytime. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and cash.
Many of our customers begin planning their parties months in advance. Some call weekly or monthly to make small payments so by the time their party arrives, the entire rental is already paid off. This is especially popular for larger events, school carnivals, and church celebrations where budgets are planned well ahead of time.
Why Customers Love Paying Over Time
- No financial strain — smaller payments spread out over weeks or months are easier to manage than one large payment
- Lock in your date and equipment early — popular dates and items book out quickly, especially during summer. Paying a deposit early secures exactly what you want.
- No interest, no fees — there are no financing charges or late fees on your payment plan. You simply pay the rental total at your own pace.
- Budget-friendly for schools, churches, and nonprofits — organizations that need to spread costs across multiple budget cycles can plan payments around their funding schedules
Package Deals & Special Pricing
We offer several ways to save when you rent from Inflatable Party Magic. The more you rent, the more value you get.
Event Packages
We offer pre-built event rental packages that bundle popular items together at a savings compared to renting each item separately. Packages are available for birthday parties, school events, corporate gatherings, and large festivals.
Multi-Day & Overnight Discounts
Keep your rentals overnight for just +$75, or add a full second day at 50% off the standard rate. Multi-day events like weekend festivals and two-day school carnivals save significantly with our extended rental pricing.
Monthly Specials
We run monthly specials with seasonal discounts and limited-time offers. Check back regularly or call our office to ask about current promotions.
If you are planning a large event and need multiple rentals, call us at (817) 800-8618 and we will work with you to put together the best combination for your budget and your event.
Event Rentals & Large-Scale Party Equipment — Get Everything from One Place
One of the biggest advantages of working with Inflatable Party Magic is that you do not have to piece your event together from multiple vendors. We carry a complete inventory of event rentals and large-scale party rental equipment, so you can book everything from a single source — with one delivery, one setup crew, one point of contact, and one company standing behind the entire event.
Our Complete Event Rental Inventory
- Bounce Houses — classic bounce houses, themed bounce houses, and toddler-safe options
- Water Slides — single lane, dual lane, and massive multi-story water slides for all ages
- Bounce & Slide Combos — bounce houses with attached slides, climbing walls, and basketball hoops
- Obstacle Courses — competitive inflatable obstacle courses for kids, teens, and adults
- Interactive Games — jousting, bungee runs, giant sports games, and more
- Extreme Attractions — euro bungee trampolines, rock climbing walls, and zorb balls
- Mechanical Bulls — professionally staffed and operated for safe, exciting entertainment
- Tables, Chairs & Tents — seating, shade, and event essentials for any size gathering
- Concession Machines — snow cone, cotton candy, and popcorn machines for that carnival feel
- Carnival Games, Movie Screens, Mini Golf & More — everything you need to create a full event experience
Whether you are planning a backyard birthday party that needs one bounce house, a school carnival with a dozen attractions, or a corporate event for thousands of guests, we have the inventory and the experience to handle it all. Renting everything from one company means less coordination, fewer delivery windows to manage, and the confidence that comes from knowing one trusted team is responsible for your entire setup.
Rescheduling, Cancellations & Rainchecks
We understand that plans change — and Texas weather is unpredictable. We have designed our policies to be as fair and flexible as possible so you never feel stuck.
Need to Change Your Date?
No problem. You can change your party date or swap to a different rental item at any time with no change fees. Life happens, and we are here to make sure you get the right equipment on the right day. Just call our office and we will take care of it.
Need to Cancel?
Your deposit reserves your date and ensures everything is ready when you are. Deposits are non-refundable, but we issue a one-year raincheck for the full deposit amount that can be used toward any rental item. If you have already paid in full, you can choose a full raincheck or a refund of the amount above your deposit (minus a 5% restocking and transaction fee).
Bad Weather?
If we determine that weather conditions make it unsafe to operate (lightning, high winds, severe storms), we will cancel and offer you either a full refund of all payments or a one-year raincheck. We will never pressure you to use equipment in unsafe conditions. Your safety is always our first priority.
Important timing notes: Cancellations must be made at least 48 hours before your event to receive a raincheck. Items cancelled with less than 24-hour notice are non-refundable with no rainchecks or credits. Items cancelled on the day of delivery are subject to a 25% restocking fee. Full details are available on our Company Policies page.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pricing & Payments
When you compare what is actually included, we are often the better value. Our standard rental is 8 hours — most competitors offer 4 to 6 hours. We include professional delivery, setup, and takedown. We carry $1 million in occurrence-based liability insurance plus workers' comp and commercial auto coverage. Our equipment is state-inspected and professionally sanitized after every rental. A lower advertised price from another company often means fewer hours, less insurance, or customer self-setup — which shifts risk and work onto you. Staffed attractions have their own rental terms and are clearly noted on each item's page.
Book with a small deposit (15% of your rental total or $50, whichever is greater) and then make payments at whatever pace works for you — weekly, monthly, or whenever you want. There is no set schedule, no interest, and no fees. Your balance just needs to be paid before we deliver. Call (817) 800-8618 any time to make a payment.
We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, and cash. All online payments are processed securely through our website. You can also call our office to make payments by phone.
If you need to cancel before delivery, we issue a one-year raincheck so you do not lose anything you have paid. That raincheck can be used toward any rental items you choose — it does not have to be the same items you originally booked. If you have paid in full, you may also choose a partial refund of the amount above your deposit minus a 5% restocking and transaction fee. Cancellations must be made at least 48 hours before your event.
We work with schools, churches, and nonprofits regularly and are happy to help you put together the best package for your budget. Call our office at (817) 800-8618 and let us know what you are planning — we will work with you to find the right combination of rentals and pricing for your event.
Your deposit reserves your specific date and equipment. It ensures that everything is cleaned, inspected, and ready for your event. Without a deposit, we cannot guarantee availability — popular dates and items book out quickly, especially during summer and holiday weekends. A deposit also signals commitment on both sides, which is why reputable rental companies always require one. Companies that do not require a deposit have a much higher no-show rate.
No. Every possible charge is listed on this page and disclosed at the time of booking. Our online system calculates your travel fee automatically based on your zip code so you see your complete total before you submit your order. The price you see is the price you pay.
