Delivery & Setup

Venue Requirements in Essex

Mains Power Supply

Inflatables, photo booths, and lighting require access to a standard UK mains socket (240V). We carry extension leads but cannot run cables across public walkways.

Adequate Space

Bouncy castles need approximately 5m × 5m plus 1m clearance. Soft play requires 4m × 4m. Indoor venues need a minimum 3m ceiling height for inflatables.

Level Ground

Outdoor setups require flat, grassy areas free of debris. Indoor setups work best on carpet or clean flooring. We assess the space on arrival and advise on any adjustments.

Venue Coordination

We coordinate delivery and setup times with your Essex venue. For venues with restricted access or specific loading windows, please let us know when enquiring.
