Planning For Tents and Inflatables


BEFORE YOU STAKE, CALL JULIE
Illinois law requires you to CALL JULIE (800 -892-0123) at least 48 hours (two working days) prior to any type of excavation projects or projects that require stakes to be driven. The 48 hours does not include Saturday, Sunday, or Holidays. Rentals Unlimited is not responsible for damage to underground obstructions incurred while installing tents, moonwalks or other inflatables.

PLANNING FOR YOUR INFLATABLE

Moonwalks
Ellie the Elephant
Seaweed the Sea Monster
Jumpasaurus
CALL JULIE(800-892-0123)


All inflatables need to be set up on grass (no hard surfaces) and within 50' of an electrical outlet. The area where you plan to set up the inflatable must be free of overhead impediments. Listed below is the space required for each inflatable.
Moonwalks & Jumpasaurus - 15' x 15' and need a 20' x 20' area
Seaweed the Sea Monster - 30' x 40' area

Once the inflatable is up it must be staked down according to the manufacturer's instructions
INCLEMENT WEATHER: Should it begin to rain or become very windy the inflatable should be evacuated immediately. If you are not able to use the inflatable due to inclement weather we will prorate your charge or give you extra time. Do not leave electrical devices or extension cords out in the rain.

Planning For Your Tent

Call Julie(800-892-0123)

When planning for a tent it is important to survey the site where you want to place the tent. You will need an area that is free of obstructions. Allow an area the size of your tent plus an additional 6' around the perimeter of the tent (i.e. a 20' X 20' tent requires an area of 32' x 32' for complete installation). The stakes can be placed in gardens, the neighbor's yard (with permission) and sometimes through fences. The most important stakes and ropes are at the corners of the tent.
