No it must be on grass only (Not artificial) or indoor hard surface

No this is not possible on a hill. However if it is a very slight grass slope it may be ok. You will need to discuss this prior to the booking.
12. How long does it take to set up/inflate/deflate/pack up the inflatable?
The bouncy castles take approx. 15 minutes to set up and 15 minutes to pack up. However, this is only an estimate. Times may vary depending on which size castle you hire, and the state of your garden, and also if its wet.
3. How much space is needed?
We need a 3ft wide clear access to deliver most castles.
You will need to allow a minimum of 5ft at the Front of castle and 1 foot either side. This is to allow access and the blower at rear.
Please make sure all dog poo, garden items such as garden toys, swings, slides, patio furniture, rubbish etc. are removed from the area where the castle is to be sited.
At busy times we are unable to wait for the area to be cleared as we will have other deliveries. Therefore, so not to disappoint other customers, we may have to return at the end of the deliveries to set up your castle.
14. Can you deliver with no side entrance and take castle though the house?
Only if someone is available to help lifting. Bouncy castles are often bigger and heavier than most people expect and use large sack trucks to move them. Unfortunately if it should rain, water will get inside the inflatable and this tends to drain out whilst being removed.... sometimes on your carpet !
