Wickford Party Hire FAQ

How far in advance should I book?

Spring and summer weekends, as well as holiday dates, book out quickly. We suggest reserving your chosen castle or package 3 to 6 weeks in advance, though our online booking system accepts last-minute dates if units remain in stock.

Can an inflatable go on an artificial lawn or patio slabs?

No. Under UK safety legislation, inflatables situated outdoors must be staked into natural grass with 380mm steel pins at all anchor points. Because artificial turf, gravel, and paving slabs do not allow safe pegging without damaging the surface, outdoor setups must always be on genuine lawn. Indoor setups on solid floors are secured safely with commercial sandbags.

What space do I need around the bouncy castle?

As a general rule, you will need roughly 4 to 5 feet of clear space at the front and back (for the safety mats and the rear blower tube), plus at least 2 to 3 feet on either side. Make sure the route into your garden (side gate, pathways) is at least 2.5 to 3 feet wide and clear of steps or obstructions.

How does booking work?

Select the equipment you want, pick your date, and enter your Wickford postcode (SS11 or SS12). The system will check live availability, reserve your slot immediately, and send you email confirmation.
