Getting it to Alexandria

Alexandria is about 50 miles out from Albany — roughly 65 minutes each way, near the edge of where we run. At 50 miles, towing it yourself is the economical call if you have the vehicle for it. If you do not, we will quote the drive honestly.

With about 14,869 residents, Alexandria is big enough to have real venues and a steady run of events, but small enough that your party is not a rounding error to whoever takes the booking. Alexandria runs a full calendar — graduations, weddings, fundraisers, company events — and the venues here are used to outside rentals rolling in.

We cover Alexandria as part of a run through Douglas County that also takes in Nelson, Forada and Garfield, so it is rare that we are making a trip out here for one booking. One number, agreed on the phone, unchanged when you return it. We have never seen a reason to complicate it. We would rather turn down a booking than take one we cannot do properly.

Three to pick from

Two of them are water slide parks and one is a classic bounce house with a slide — all three rent to Alexandria for the weekend, quoted per unit.

The water park

A bounce area, a double slide, two splash pools and water cannons, all in one footprint. This is the one for a birthday where you want the kids busy for the whole afternoon.

The slide and pool

A double water slide that lands in a splash pool, with a cannon. Smaller footprint, same effect on a hot July Saturday.

The bounce house

A house-shaped bouncer with a slide out the side and a shallow pool at the bottom. Runs dry or wet, which makes it the one that works in May and September too.

What you need in your yard

A reasonably flat patch of grass with a few feet of clearance on every side, an outdoor outlet within about 100 feet for the blower, and for the water units a garden hose that reaches. Every unit comes with its blower and ground stakes, and it has to be staked before anyone goes in — Minnesota wind is not something to guess at. If you are not sure your Alexandria yard works, describe it in the booking form and we will tell you honestly.

Bounce house plus seating

Most Alexandria bookings that start as a bounce house end up needing chairs too, because the parents who bring the kids need somewhere to sit. The trailer package is quoted for the weekend, chairs and tables loaded, and booking both at once means one form and one schedule to keep track of.

Questions we get from Alexandria

How much does it cost to rent tables and chairs in Alexandria?

One quote for the weekend covers the loaded trailer — folding chairs and banquet tables — as one bundle, however many you actually use. A $200 booking deposit reserves the date and comes off the total. Delivery to Alexandria is separate and quoted by distance — delivery quoted by distance applies here.

Do you deliver and set up bounce houses in Alexandria?

We can. Say so in the booking form and delivery and setup are quoted with the rest of your Alexandria booking. Every unit comes with its blower and ground stakes either way.

What do I need in my yard for a bounce house or water slide?

A reasonably flat patch of grass with clearance around it, an outdoor outlet within about 100 feet for the blower, and for the water slides a garden hose that reaches. Describe your yard in the form and we will tell you honestly whether it will work.

How far is Alexandria from your trailer?

About 50 miles from Albany, roughly a 65-minute drive. It is an easy haul if you are towing it yourself.

What do I need to tow the trailer?

A 2-5/16 inch ball and a vehicle rated to tow an enclosed trailer — most half-ton pickups and full-size SUVs handle it without any trouble. If you are unsure whether your vehicle is up to it, tell us what you drive in the booking form.

Do you deliver to Alexandria?

Yes. Delivery quoted by distance applies to Alexandria, which is 50 miles from Albany.

Is the trailer hard to back up?

It is a normal enclosed trailer. If you have pulled a boat or a skid loader trailer you will be fine. If you have not, most people would rather we deliver, and that is a fair call.

Do you rent tablecloths or dishes?

No. Chairs, tables and bounce houses is the whole list right now, with tents and yard games coming. We would rather do a short list properly.

Are you actually the cheapest option around here?

For a whole weekend, we think so, and it is the billing model rather than a discount: companies that price per chair per day multiply by the count and again by the days. We quote the trailer once, for the weekend. Get a quote from anyone else and compare the weekend total, not the daily rate — that is where the difference shows up.
