Family Bounce inflatables™ are looking forward to another eventful year hiring out bouncy castles, slides and accessories for local parties and regional events in Leeds, Wakefield, Selby, York, Castleford and Pontefract in 2012. We’re getting more involved with party planning and event planning this year and further details of our themed event and party packages will be shown on our website shortly.

Once again, we will be providing a first class service this year. By this, I mean we will continue to supply UK manufactured bouncy castles which meet current British Standard BS EN 14960 and our procedures comply with the standard as well. On top of this, we follow HSE guidelines for health and safety, we carry £5m public liability insurance and we maintain our equipment to the best standards possible, ensuring they are clean on arrival to your party. Further, we always turn up on time within our unparalleled 15 minute delivery window to avoid any potential stresses on the day of your party. We provide thick, high quality crash mats for use at the front of the bouncy castles where hard ground, such as concrete, or an indoor hall is being used for the venue. This avoids any minor injuries that may otherwise be encountered on the day if these facilities were not provided.

If you are interested in hiring a bouncy castle, from Family Bounce Inflatables for an indoor party at a local sports hall, community centre, etc. or for an outdoor bit of fun in your back garden, please visit our Bouncy Castle Hire page for contact details and images of our inflatables.

It is only April, but now that the weather is getting nice and warm and the bouncy castle hire season is back in full swing, we already getting calls from desperate people, usually parents. We receive these calls most Saturday mornings from people with the following situation:

1. Their bouncy castle booking has been cancelled last minute by the hire company; or
2. Their bouncy castle has not arrived and the hire company’s phone is switched off, or not being answered

Some weeks, we can take last minute bookings, but generally by the weekend we are fully booked and cannot help. When we do help, I always encourage our guys to ask who the hire company were and what their reasons were for the cancellation. for some reason, it always seems to be the same 3-4 businesses, who all use similar excuses. I won’t say the names of these businesses, as that would be unfair, but here are some of their excuses, which they have used several times:

• Their van has broken down
• Their bouncy castle has been damaged
• They have lost their diary
• … the dog ate their diary, etc.

As a bouncy castle hirer myself, I know your van doesn’t break down that often and if it does, you should have another van or two, or an estate car available. I also know that bouncy castles don’t get damaged that often, especially if they are looked after and cleaned before and after every hire. Furthermore, you would NEVER EVER lose your diary. If you have any sense, you keep copies of all bookings at the office anyway.

So, what is the reason for the cancellations? Here are my thoughts:

1. the bouncy castle hire company is not really a company, it is a guy with a couple of old bouncy castles in the shed and when he can be bothered and has no other plans for the day, he makes it on time; and/or
2. the bouncy castle hire company takes every booking until fully booked for each day, then if new bookings are received which involve less delivery mileage, they take them instead and cancel the more distant bookings

Beyond a shadow of a doubt the above happens every single weekend and some unlucky party planner ends up with a bunch of bored and upset kids at their party. I think this is absolutely disgusting and having children myself, I would never allow my company to operate in this way. However, year in, year out, these individuals and small businesses continue to get away with it, as there are new customers every year.

To avoid this situation yourself, I would urge you to look closer at each bouncy castle hire business before you make a booking and ensure that you only book through a reputable hirer, who has a good website and good feedback. Please visit our homepage for details of our inflatables, area coverage and high standards. Please note that you will need to book in advance to ensure that we are not already fully booked. We offer premium quality products, which are cleaner, newer and brighter than the competition. We also have the best themes and our high referral rate means we don’t even have to advertise. Compare this to the cheapo, tatty looking inflatables that our rivals supply and their major advertising campaigns that they need to get bookings. Need I say any more…?

I hope this article results in your parties running smoothly in 2011 and onwards. That’s whether you book through Family Bounce, or any other high quality reputable company.

Martin

We’re all set for the Summer surge in bouncy castle hire bookings. We’ve an extra 2 vans, more staff, more inflatables and another rodeo bull. It looks like we are going to be busier than ever, but we are doing what we love and making people’s parties awesome. As always, we strongly urge you to make advance bookings, as today alone we have had to turn away 3 customers for the Princess Bouncy Castle, as it is fully booked each weekend for the next 4 weeks.

Other companies may have similar equipment, but as far as we are aware, none of the local competition serving Leeds and the surrounding areas offer the same premium quality equipment that we supply. Generally, if you book 6-8 weeks in advance, there is a good chance that most bouncy castles will be available.

Call us now on 07549 983 772 to make an early booking.

Well, 2010 is nearly over and other than our van being stolen a week before Xmas, it has been a fantastic year for Family Bounce Inflatables™. We have had a great time keeping kids and adults entertained at all sorts of venues, from cricket grounds, to social clubs. Our best moments of 2010 were when we donated our full hire charges to charity for various fundraising events, which we did once per month. We get a lot of requests for freebies and although we cannot meet everyones needs, we accept one free charity event per month. Next year, if all goes to plan and we become much busier, then perhaps we can offer 2 or 3 free bouncy castle hire days per month for charity.

2011 is a few days away and despite VAT going up to 20%, we will be buying an unbelievable amount of brand new Beetee manufactured bouncy castles and inflatables in the New Year, comprising mainly more childrens bouncy castles, but also more adult inflatables, sumo suits, disco domes and so on. Whatever your needs, we will be able to help, whether it be a back garden party, indoor party at a local village hall, team building day, corporate event or anything else, just give us a call.

In 2011 we will price beat any bouncy castle hire business, whilst providing the finest quality inflatable along with a better service. Why use anyone else?

Well, 2010 is nearly over and it has been a fantastic year for our Leeds bouncy castle hire business. We are certainly the most popular bouncy castle hire business operating in Leeds, Wakefield, Selby or York and we will probably the biggest by Summer 2011. The reason for this is simple, we have an excellent team of proactive staff who are very polite, punctual and helpful. We also use the most expensive, high quality equipment available, which can be seen by comparing our inflatables with other local businesses.

We offer a premium service, unlike any other local business and we are trying to show our customers the huge difference in quality between businesses. If you are planning to hire a bouncy castle next year, then you should consider the following:

	Family Bounce Inflatables™	Other Local Businesses1
Age of bouncy castles	0-6 months	up to 12 years
Conform with British Standard BS EN 14960? (covers health, safety and quality)	Yes (proof available)	Mostly No
Crash Mats Provided For Hard Surfaces?	Yes, deep luxury mats	Maybe, thin, tatty
Delivery, Setup & Collection Charges	Free	£0 – £20

Note:
¹ There are a lot of bouncy castle hire businesses in Leeds, some very bad, some bad, some okay. I have included my view on the average business in Leeds, excluding Family Bounce, based upon discussions with customers who have been let down, online reviews, pricing, website information, etc.

Pink Princess Bouncy Castle

Conclusion

The cheap alternatives and Chinese import bouncy castles are low quality and sometimes not safe for your children. Also, people who use the worst equipment are usually the same people who do not turn up for countless bookings, spoiling your parties. Whilst these cheaper inflatables are improving over time, as the cheaper manufacturers are gaining experience of the Standards, they are still poor quality. The problem is that most people simply book through the first business they find, without considering any of the points in this article. If people did compare, these cheaper hirers’ would be out of business. If you are one of the more thoughtful and organised sort, then you will know to book through Family Bounce Inflatables™ to ensure your party or event goes smoothly, whilst being fun and safe. What’s more, doing a like for like price comparison, it appears we are actually cheaper than our rivals anyway. If you think differently, let us know and we will price match with our better equipment.

So, for 2011, our new range of inflatables will include more Sumo Suits, Bouncy Castles, Bouncy Castle & Slide Combos, Disco Domes and more. Remember to bookmark our site, as you may not be able to find us again in the Summer when you want to hire something.

Disco Dome Hire Leeds

At Family Bounce Inflatables, we are considering adding the Disco Dome to our premium collection of high quality inflatables, as part of our expansion in 2011. The Disco Dome, manufactured by Beetee to their usual high standards, is a completely enclosed bouncy castle, which allows speakers and disco lights to be placed inside, turning the dome into a disco for your children. Not only is the Disco Dome excellent fun for children, it is also safe (manufactured in accordance with British Standards) and is rain proof, allowing year round hire. Further, once the children are inside the dome, which by the way is manufactured using fire retardant materials, you know they are all safe, meaning you can relax and enjoy the day yourself.

We were very busy in 2010 for Bouncy castle hire Leeds and next year we are looking to take on more birthday parties and special occasions, where bouncy castles like the Disco Dome would be perfect. Please leave your feedback using the comments box, to let us know if you like the look of the Disco Dome. Depending upon feedback, we may purchase this inflatable in the near future.
