Kids Party Rentals in Berkeley

Skip the inflatable and build around soft play, a ball pit and kids tables and chairs. These set up on a level deck, a garage floor or inside the house, and they do not need stakes. If you still want a bounce house, a park with a level lawn is the better place for it.

Some can. Soft play pieces, ball pits and kids furniture are easier to carry than a rolled inflatable, which is heavy and bulky. Tell us how many steps there are, how steep and narrow they are, and whether there are landings. That lets us confirm what can reach your party spot safely before you book.

Fog itself is not a problem for the equipment, though it can leave grass and decks damp until it burns off. A late-morning or early-afternoon start usually brings drier surfaces and more sun. Wind is the bigger factor for inflatables, especially in exposed spots, so a sheltered location is worth choosing.

Delivery to Berkeley is $80. You are about 12.3 miles from our Oakland warehouse, and that falls inside our flat-rate zone, so the fee is the same $80 whether you book one item or a full setup. The fee covers the round trip, setup when we arrive and collection afterwards. It is calculated from your exact address at checkout, so the figure you see is the figure you pay.

Setup is included. We deliver to your Berkeley address, position and set up everything, and come back to collect it at the end of your window. You do not assemble anything, and there is no separate labour charge.

Online bookings need at least 7 days of notice, and you can book up to 12 months ahead. In practice Berkeley weekends in spring and summer go early, so booking three to six weeks out gives you the best choice of dates and items. Nothing is held without a deposit, so the date is only yours once that is paid.

A 50% deposit and a signed rental agreement reserve your items. The balance is due one week before the event, and bookings made inside that week are paid in full up front. If you need to move the date for weather, illness or anything else, your payment transfers to the new date subject to availability. If you cancel outright, the payment becomes in-house credit you can use for up to 18 months.

Standard delivery and collection are one-hour arrival windows, which lets us route the day's Berkeley runs efficiently. If your venue or party schedule needs a precise time, you can add a guaranteed exact-time slot for $100 at checkout and we build the route around it.

Yes. Same-day collection is standard, and an overnight or next-morning pickup is $75. It is worth considering for an evening party in Berkeley, since it takes the pressure off the end of the event and we collect the following day instead.

All of Berkeley, including North Berkeley, Elmwood, Claremont, Berkeley Hills, Thousand Oaks, West Berkeley and Westbrae, plus the surrounding East Bay. The delivery fee is the same across the city, so where you are inside Berkeley does not change the price.
