How Booking Works – Step by Step

Booking with Best Party Hire is simple and stress-free. Here’s exactly how it works, from planning your event to party day.

Step 1: Book Your Venue (if needed)

If your party is at a village hall or venue, book this first and confirm:

The date
The start and finish times
Any restrictions (ceiling height, access, power)

If your party is at home, you can skip this step and move straight on.

Step 2: Choose Your Equipment

Browse our website and pick the bouncy castle or party equipment you’d like to hire.

Click “Book Online” on your main item. You can add extra items during the booking process.

Step 3: Select Your Date

Choose your event date during booking.

If your item is available, you can continue.
If not, you’ll be shown alternative options.

Step 4: Enter Your Event Location

Add the event address, whether it’s:

A home address, or
A village hall or venue

This helps us plan delivery, access, and setup safely.

Step 5: Enter Your Event Details

You’ll be asked for:

Event times
Indoor or outdoor setup
Contact details

Please check these carefully, as they’re used to plan your delivery and setup.

Step 6: Pay the Admin Fee

To secure your booking request, an Admin Fee of £25 is required.

Once paid:

Your date is held
We check all the details

Your booking is now pending confirmation.

Step 7: Booking Confirmation

We review your booking to make sure everything is suitable and safe.

Once approved, we will:

Confirm your booking
Send confirmation by email

At this point, your date and equipment are fully secured.

Step 8: Final Balance Payment

The remaining balance is due 14 days before your event.

This allows us to finalise:

Scheduling
Equipment preparation
Delivery planning

Payment reminders are sent so nothing is missed.

Step 9: Delivery, Setup & Party Time 🎉

On the day:

We arrive in your agreed time window
Set up safely (usually around 30 minutes)
Explain how to use everything safely

Then it’s time to enjoy the party.

Step 10: Collection & Pack Down

At the end of your hire:

We return on time
Check the equipment
Pack everything away (usually around 30 minutes)

You don’t need to do anything—we handle it all.

Step 11: Thank You

After your event, we may contact you to:

Thank you for booking
Request feedback

We really appreciate every booking and love being part of your celebration.
