At PG Bouncy Castle Hire, safety is at the heart of everything we do. Whether you’re hiring a bouncy castle for a birthday party, school fun day, wedding or community event, following a few simple safety rules helps everyone enjoy the inflatable safely. This guide explains everything you need to know before, during and after your hire.

Why Safety Matters ⚠️

Bouncy castles provide fantastic entertainment when they are:

• Professionally installed
• Used correctly
• Properly supervised
• Suitable for the children using them
• Operated in appropriate weather conditions

Following these guidelines helps create a fun and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Before Your Bouncy Castle Arrives ✅

• Make sure the setup area is clear.
• Remove garden furniture, toys and bicycles.
• Pick up any sharp objects.
• Ensure there is suitable access for delivery.
• Keep pets away from the setup area.

If you are unsure about space requirements, contact us before your booking.

Professional Installation 🔧

• Delivered by trained staff.
• Installed correctly and inflated safely.
• Checked before use.

Please do not attempt to move or reposition the inflatable after installation.

Adult Supervision 👁️

Adult supervision is essential at all times.

• Watch children continuously.
• Stop rough play and prevent climbing on walls.
• Ensure children remove shoes and empty pockets.
• Keep food and drinks off the inflatable.
• Group children of similar age and size together where possible.

Never leave children unattended while using an inflatable.

Safe Play Rules 🎯

• Remove shoes before entering.
• Empty pockets of sharp objects.
• Remove jewellery where practical.
• No food, drinks or chewing gum.
• No face paints, confetti, glitter or silly string on the inflatable.
• No climbing or sitting on the walls; no wrestling or rough play.
• No somersaults unless appropriate and supervised.
• Follow any instructions given by our team.

Mixing Ages and Sizes

Where possible, younger children should play separately from older children. Children of similar height and size should use the inflatable together. This reduces the chance of accidental collisions.

Weather Safety 🌧️

Weather plays an important role in inflatable safety. If weather conditions become unsuitable, the inflatable should not be used. This includes:

• Strong winds
• Thunderstorms and lightning
• Flooding or other severe weather conditions

If you’re unsure, contact our team for advice.

Indoor Safety 🏠

• Adequate ceiling height.
• Enough floor space and safe access routes.
• Suitable electrical supply.

Always check with the venue before booking that inflatables are permitted.

Looking After the Equipment 🧼

• No pets on the inflatable.
• No smoking or BBQs nearby.
• No sharp objects, confetti or silly string.
• No climbing on the outside walls.

Looking after the equipment helps keep it in great condition for future customers.

Our Commitment to Safety

• Clean and sanitised equipment.
• Regular maintenance and professional setup.
• Reliable customer service and friendly advice before every hire.
• Safe installation and fully insured service.
