Bouncy Castle Hire Safety

Bouncy Castles are safe, but only when used correctly. Probably the biggest accident associated with bouncy castles, besides a bump or bruise from an ill-timed bounce, are caused by bad weather. Stories of these large inflatables being blown by the wind tend to make for good news, but these situations are rare and totally preventable.

When winds are severe, a giant inflatable should never be set up and even so they should always be properly anchored. Observing a few safety tips will help ensure that both parents and children can enjoy birthday parties and other celebrations with these inflatable amusement rides. It is important for parents to keep in mind that while bouncy castles can entertain children for hours at a time, they are not babysitters. They are in no way a substitute for direct parental supervision.

Wind and bad weather are the enemy of any inflatables and parents need to understand, and help kids understand, that when there is a risk of bad weather the bouncy castle should not be inflated. At Blackpool Bounce we are prepared for this and can provide our customers with a list of indoor venues that will be happy to accommodate them.

Hire a reputable company like Blackpool Bounce to install your inflatables. Incorrect setup can lead to injury. Trained and experienced workers should be in charge of the correct setup of all fun runs and disco domes. Limit the number of children in the bouncy castles at the same time and set a time limit on how long they can be in there. If it were left up to them, they may never come out. Also, a responsible bouncy castle hire, like Blackpool Bounce, is properly insured. Don’t use a company that isn’t.
