Bouncy Castle Hire FAQs for Rudgwick, West Sussex
We deliver to Rudgwick regularly, setting up bouncy castles for garden parties, village events and family gatherings across Tismans Common, Bucks Green, The Haven and surrounding parts of the West Sussex countryside. Because customers in Rudgwick often ask similar questions before booking, we’ve put together this guide to help you plan your hire with confidence.
Do you deliver to Rudgwick?
Yes — we cover the whole Rudgwick area, including The Haven, Tismans Common, Cox Green and Bucks Green. We also deliver to nearby villages such as Loxwood, Cranleigh, Slinfold and Billinghurst. If you’re unsure whether we can reach your Rudgwick road or property, just let us know.
What kinds of Rudgwick events do you supply bouncy castles for?
We hire to birthdays, school events, garden parties, church fundraisers, village fairs and private gatherings across Rudgwick. Many families also book soft play or packages for indoor hires in local halls during winter months.
How is the inflatable set up?
Wherever your event is in Rudgwick, our team will deliver and fully install the bouncy castle for you. We secure it safely, check the ground, set up the blower and give you clear supervision instructions. After that, the inflatable must be monitored by a responsible adult throughout the hire.
Do I need to supervise the children?
Yes — adult supervision is required at all times. This rule applies to every Rudgwick hire. Users must be grouped by similar ages and sizes, adults cannot use children’s inflatables, and flips, wrestling or climbing on the walls are strictly not allowed.
What about the weather in Rudgwick?
If Rudgwick experiences heavy rain or winds above safe limits, the inflatable must not be used. If conditions look unsafe before we arrive, we can cancel at no charge. Once we have set everything up at your Rudgwick address, the hire fee still applies even if the weather turns later — though use must stop immediately if conditions become unsafe.
What surfaces can you set up on in Rudgwick?
A flat grass area in your Rudgwick garden is ideal as we can stake the inflatable securely. If your garden has artificial turf, gravel, hard standing or uneven surfaces, let us know before booking. Some surfaces simply aren’t safe for anchoring an inflatable.
Do I need to prepare the area?
Yes — the space must be clear before we arrive. Please remove garden toys, furniture, stones, pet mess or anything else that could cause damage. Access through gateways or side paths in Rudgwick must also be clear to allow safe delivery.
Can adults use the bouncy castle?
Only if you hire one of our adult bouncy castles. Adults cannot use children’s inflatables at any event, including those held in Rudgwick village halls or back gardens.
Are face paints allowed on the inflatables?
We strongly advise Rudgwick customers not to use face paints or glitter. These products often cause permanent staining to inflatables and may result in cleaning charges.
How many children can go on at once?
This depends on the exact castle you choose. When delivering to your Rudgwick location, we’ll give you the specific user limit. Overcrowding must be avoided, and younger children should not mix with much older children.
What should I do if the blower cuts out?
Ask everyone to leave the inflatable immediately and calmly. Then check the plug, extension or local power source. If you can’t find the reason or the blower won’t restart, contact us straight away. This applies to all Rudgwick hires, whether at home or in a hall.
Is your equipment insured and safety tested?
Yes — all of our bouncy castles hired in Rudgwick are RPII tested every year, and our electrical items are PAT tested. We are fully insured, and we will only install equipment that passes our safety standards.
Can I cancel my Rudgwick booking?
Yes. Cancellations before delivery are free of charge. After setup at your Rudgwick property or venue, the full hire price applies even if the weather changes later on.
