What Size Bounce House Should I Rent?
Finding the Perfect Bounce House Size
One of the most common questions we get is "what size bounce house do I need?" It's a great question because getting the right size means more fun for the kids and less stress for you. Let's break it down.
Consider Your Guest Count
Small Party (5-8 kids):
- Standard bounce house works perfect
- Doesn't need a huge yard
- Budget-friendly option
Medium Party (8-15 kids):
- Combo unit recommended
- Kids can rotate between bouncing and sliding
- More space means less waiting
Large Event (15+ kids):
- Consider our obstacle course or multiple units
- Great for school events and church festivals
- Kids can spread out across activities
Age Range Matters
Toddlers & Young Kids (3-6):
- Smaller bounce houses with enclosed walls
- Low-height slides
- Easy entry and exit
- Separate from older kids
School Age (7-12):
- Combo units are the sweet spot
- Water slides in summer
- Climbing walls and obstacles
Teens & Adults:
- Our obstacle course handles all ages
- Larger combo units rated for adults
- Great for corporate events and family reunions
Measure Your Yard
Before you book, measure your setup area:
- Add 3 feet on all sides of the inflatable
- 15 feet overhead clearance (watch for trees and power lines)
- Clear path from the driveway to the setup spot
- Level ground — slopes can be tricky
