Do rental prices include delivery and setup?
No. The prices shown are the rental for one event day: the partner's rate plus our 10% fee. Delivery and pickup, setup, a damage waiver and sales tax are itemized on your free quote before you pay anything.
How can I save on concessions rentals?
Order supplies for the real headcount. Run the machine yourself if allowed. Bundle with other party rentals for one delivery. Combining categories on one order also saves, because one delivery covers everything.
