Find the right bouncy castle for your business
At Airquee, our commercial bouncy castles range from £330 for a compact 7x7ft castle to £13,960 for our largest 12x11m activity den, so there’s an option available to suit every taste and budget, whether you are buying your first unit or expanding a fleet.
And, when it comes to earning, the units that make the most are the ones that get booked the most. Here’s where each one fits in a hire fleet:
- Standard bouncy castles – simple, reliable, always in demand (the go-to first buy for a new hire business)
- Indoor bouncy castles - perfect for use indoors (keeping you earning through winter)
- Slide combos – higher value bookings with added features
- Disco castles – perfect for parties and premium hires
- Toddler inflatables – safe, colourful, and easy to manage
- Themed designs – stand out and attract more bookings
- Custom builds – fully branded, built around your needs
Commercial or domestic: which do you need?
If you are hiring out, you need a commercial unit, as domestic bouncy castles are made for occasional garden use. They are not built to be set up, packed away and transported several times a week. Plus they are not usually made to EN14960 Standard. Most insurers and venues expect hire equipment to meet EN14960 Standard and also be PIPA tested, and that's exactly what our commercial inflatable range does.
Built properly
When you’re investing in a bouncy castle for sale, build quality matters.
- High-quality PVC for durability and easy cleaning
- Reinforced stitching and structure
- Designed to meet EN14960 standards (the European safety standard for inflatables)
- PIPA tested where required (the UK inspection scheme most insurers and venues look for)
What should your first hire fleet look like?
Most new hire businesses start with two or three units that cover different types of booking, rather than one large castle:
- A standard castle is the core unit for parties, school fairs and community events
- A slide combo for higher-value bookings once your standard castle is in regular demand
- A toddler or indoor unit keeps your fleet working through winter and at halls and nurseries
Replacing ageing stock? The same principle applies; you should replace your most-booked units first.
What do you need to start a bouncy castle hire business?
Here’s what you’ll need to get up and running:
- Commercial bouncy castles made to EN14960
- PIPA testing for each unit
- Public liability insurance
- A blower for each castle, plus stakes or sandbags and a groundsheet
- A vehicle large enough to transport your units
- A risk assessment and the operating instructions for each unit
- A system for taking bookings and payments
