Getting it to Baxter

Baxter is about 61 miles out from Albany — roughly 80 minutes each way, near the edge of where we run. This far out, we will tell you plainly whether delivery makes sense for your headcount, or whether you are better off towing.

With about 8,961 residents, Baxter 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. Baxter has enough going on that most weekends somebody is setting up folding chairs somewhere. We would rather it was ours than six borrowed sets.

We cover Baxter as part of a run through Crow Wing County that also takes in Brainerd, East Gull Lake and Pillager, so it is rare that we are making a trip out here for one booking. The price does not move with your headcount. That is not generosity, it is just simpler to run one trailer than to count chairs twice. Word travels in towns this size, which is the only reason we need to keep this straight.

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 Baxter for the weekend, quoted per unit.

Inflatable water park with a double slide, bounce area, splash pools and water cannons Inflatable double water slide landing in a splash pool, with a water cannon Red and blue house-shaped bounce house with a slide and a splash pool

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 Baxter yard works, describe it in the booking form and we will tell you honestly.

Delivery and setup are available, and quoted with your booking. Say what you would like in the form.

Bounce house plus seating

Most Baxter 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 Baxter

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

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 Baxter is separate and quoted by distance — delivery quoted by distance applies here.

Do you deliver and set up bounce houses in Baxter?

We can. Say so in the booking form and delivery and setup are quoted with the rest of your Baxter 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 Baxter from your trailer?

About 61 miles from Albany, roughly a 80-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 Baxter?

Yes. Delivery quoted by distance applies to Baxter, which is 61 miles from Albany.

Do you set the chairs up for me?

No — you pull them off the racks and place them where you want them. That is part of why the price is what it is. Bounce houses and water slides come with their own blower and ground stakes; if you would like us to deliver and set one up, say so and it is quoted with the booking.

What happens if a chair gets damaged?

A chair or two out of {chairs} is wear and tear, not a problem. Real damage — a cracked seat, a bent table leg — is billed after return at the replacement cost on the rental agreement. There is no separate damage deposit.

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.
