INFLATE THE NIGHT – RENTAL TERMS & CONDITIONS
Effective Date: October 11, 2026
Welcome to Inflate The Night! These Terms & Conditions apply to all equipment rentals and services provided by Inflate The Night LLC.
Please read these terms carefully before submitting a booking request or making a payment.
1. AGREEMENT ACCEPTANCE & CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITY
By submitting payment toward an Inflate The Night invoice, whether a deposit or full payment, the person or organization identified as the customer on the invoice (“Client”) agrees to these Terms & Conditions, provided they were made available for review before payment.
The Client acknowledges that:
-
Payment constitutes acceptance of the Terms & Conditions presented with the invoice.
-
The person making payment represents that they are authorized to accept these terms on behalf of the Client.
-
The Client remains responsible for the booking, equipment, payments, damages, and compliance with these terms throughout the rental period.
-
Allowing another person to receive, operate, or sign for the equipment does not transfer the Client’s responsibilities to that person.
-
The Client is responsible for ensuring that all authorized representatives and guests follow the applicable rental instructions and safety requirements.
A separate handwritten signature is not required for acceptance when the Client has validly agreed to these terms through the booking and payment process.
Any additional rental agreement or setup acknowledgment may still be required before equipment is released.
2. BOOKING, DEPOSITS & PAYMENTS
All bookings are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
-
A 25% deposit is required to confirm a reservation.
-
Equipment and event dates are not reserved until the required deposit is received.
-
Deposits must be paid within 48 hours of invoice issuance unless otherwise stated.
-
Unpaid invoices may be canceled and equipment released after the payment deadline.
-
The remaining balance is due five (5) days before the event.
-
Bookings made within five (5) days of the event require payment in full.
-
Accepted payment methods include credit cards, debit cards, PayPal, and Apple Pay.
Failure to pay the remaining balance by the deadline may result in cancellation of the booking.
3. RENTAL DURATIONS & PICKUP
Inflate The Night offers four-hour and Full-Day (24-hour) rentals for eligible equipment.
-
Events beginning after 4:00 PM require a Full-Day rental unless otherwise approved in writing.
-
Equipment pickups are not normally performed after 8:00 PM.
-
Full-Day rentals generally include pickup the following day.
-
Setup and takedown are performed by Inflate The Night unless otherwise agreed.
-
Takedown may require one hour or longer depending on equipment and site conditions.
The Client must ensure the equipment can remain at the location until the confirmed pickup time.
4. DELIVERY WINDOWS & SETUP TIMES
Inflate The Night provides estimated delivery windows based on scheduling, travel, and existing bookings.
Setup typically begins approximately 45–60 minutes before the event start time, but may occur earlier depending on the delivery schedule.
-
Delivery windows are estimates unless expressly confirmed as guaranteed.
-
Early arrival requests are not guaranteed.
-
Event time or location changes require written approval.
-
The Client must provide access during the confirmed delivery window.
-
Setup times may vary depending on equipment and event requirements.
Inflate The Night will make reasonable efforts to have equipment ready by the agreed event start time.
If a delay caused by Inflate The Night materially affects the rental, the company will work with the Client on an appropriate resolution.
5. CUSTOMER NO-SHOW & FAILED DELIVERY
The Client or an authorized representative must be present and reachable during the confirmed delivery window.
If Inflate The Night arrives and cannot access the property or contact anyone authorized to receive the rental:
-
Our team will attempt to contact the Client.
-
A 15-minute waiting period will be provided.
-
A final five-minute warning may be issued.
-
After 20 minutes total, our team may leave.
A documented failure to provide access or receive the equipment may be treated as a customer-caused failed delivery.
When Inflate The Night arrives as agreed and is ready to perform the rental, but setup cannot proceed for reasons within the Client’s responsibility, payments may be non-refundable.
Examples include:
-
Nobody being available to receive the equipment.
-
The Client refusing the rental upon arrival.
-
The event ending before delivery.
-
The venue reservation expiring.
-
Missing venue permissions.
-
Inadequate access, space, or power.
-
Unapproved changes to the event location or schedule.
Inflate The Night is not required to make a second delivery attempt.
Any additional delivery attempt is subject to availability and may involve additional charges.
This policy does not apply when the failed delivery results from Inflate The Night’s own failure to meet its obligations.
6. AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES
The Client may designate another adult to receive the rental when the Client cannot be present.
Authorized representatives may:
-
Provide access to the setup area.
-
Approve equipment placement.
-
Receive operating instructions.
-
Sign setup acknowledgments.
-
Communicate with Inflate The Night regarding setup.
The Client remains responsible for decisions and instructions provided by their authorized representative.
A representative signing the delivery or setup paperwork does not release the original booking Client from their obligations.

-
Venue rental hours accommodate setup and pickup.

Required permissions have been obtained.
-
The venue allows equipment to remain overnight when applicable.

10. WEATHER MONITORING & CANCELLATIONS
Inflate The Night generally begins monitoring outdoor weather forecasts approximately seven days before an event.
Weather reviews may occur five days, three days, and 24–48 hours before the event.

Receive a full refund of payments made for the affected rental.
Weather-related cancellations initiated by Inflate The Night are separate from customer-initiated cancellations.
