The smaller the slide, the less cleaning involved (low price) and the less people required to set it up/take in down (employee cost is less). Lets go over the sizes and Prices.

These Prices are based on what it does cost a business to pay employee’s to clean a water slide, set up a water slide, and pick up a water slide. These prices would not include a travel or delivery charge. You could save some $ using a mom and pop who own their water slide however they More than likely Won’t clean the water slide, or May not show up for many reseasons (to lazzy, got drunk the night before, friends want to hang out, vehicle problems, made other plans and forgot, get sick, not worried about the bills that week and tired of working their job. So they wont deliver the water slide do to extreme labor involved, or someone else offers them more $ so they deliver to the other person, etc. There are lots of cases and reseasons for a mom and pop not to show up on time or at all to your party.) It’s not worth trying to save $20-$50 to risk ruining your party. Other problems include they do show up and change the price last second, or the slide smells like urine ( sitting water rolled up in a water slide not cleaned and dried out will smell like urin or arigation water after 2 days!) There really is urine inside your rented slide. The stitching is not keeping up and it finally rips on your party and you incur the damage costs and or the slide is not usable, the slide is dirty, does not come with a sprinkler hose to spray water on the slide to keep wet, on and on and ON! NOT WORTH THE SMALL savings and HUGE RISKS!

RED Flags from companys that rent inflatable water slides by the hour. Never use a company that charges by the hour. IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW LONG YOU HAVE IT. The cost to clean is the cost to clean! Think about it. If you rent for 4 hours or 1 hour or 8 hours it needs to be cleaned. Water slides dont rent based on the hour, they rent based on the cost of set-up, pick-up, maintanace, and CLEANING! Uh-Oh they just told on themselves! THEY DON’T CLEAN THEIR Water slides if they charge by the hour! The cost to clean is the cost to clean, is the cost to clean!!! Your renting a dirty water slide with GOD only knows what is on and inside it! THAT’S NASTY! You might as well go swim in a canal or in irrigation water! [ ok if you rent a water slide for 4 hours and a company charges per hour they cant afford to clean it for #1) the price you pay and #2) there trying to re-rent the same day and there is no time to clean between rentals!!!!!! And if they dont clean between rentals, they dont clean untill the end of the whole week or month! And that is if you are LUCKY!
