How often is the equipment cleaned?

To ensure cleanliness for the children, all soft play items are cleaned prior to delivery and immediately after pick up.
Can I set up a play gym indoors or outdoors?

Yes! We allow for both indoor and outdoor set ups. During our initial discussions, we will ensure the space will be suitable for your selected soft play set up. If soft play gyms are set up outdoors, we require the climbing equipment to be in a shaded area or protected by a tent/canopy. An additional $50 fee is assessed for any outdoor event due to additional cleaning necessary. 10x10 white canopy tent is available for rent as well with soft play rental.
Is Little Explorer Soft Play licensed and insured?

Yes! Proof of insurance is available upon request. If a venue asked to be added as an additional insured, an additional cost will apply.

What additional fees are their on top of the package cost?

We charge a delivery fee (first 15 miles is included in price, $2 per mile additional outside of 15 miles round trip), 6% sales tax, and a 2.5% processing fee. If you event is outdoors, $50 charge will be added to cover additional cleaning costs

Do we charge for Delivery?

Any delivery inside of 15 miles from our base location 48001 is delivered free of charge. Any location outside of 15 miles will be charged $25 plus $2 per mile round trip. For example, if a location is 30 miles from 48081, the first 15 miles are free, and $2 a mile round trip after that. 30 miles less 15 includes=15 miles x 2 for round trip * $2 a mile +$25=$85 delivery fee. The farthest we will travel is 60 miles from 48001.
Do we charge a damage deposit?

Yes! We charge a refundable 20% of total rental cost damage deposit which is returned to the customer by two days after event via Venmo, Paypal, or Zelle if rentals are returned in the condition they were set up. Loss of partial or full damage deposit would include: excessive cleaning needed on rental equipment, ball pit balls not returned to ball pit at end of event, and minor damage to equipment If any items are damaged to the extent of needing to be fully replaced, renter is responsible for paying the difference of the replacement cost and what was held for damage deposit, per the signed rental agreement.
Do I need pay for an attendant for my event?

If your event is expected to have 15 or more children present, an attendant is required to ensure rules are followed for the duration of the rental. The charge for an attendant for 4 hours is $100 and will be added to invoice at the time of booking. For the Bubble House, an attendant is necessary to operate the equipment and is already included in the price of the rental. However, attendant does not replace the need for parental supervision. Parental supervision is required for all children playing on equipment.
What is our Weather Policy?

All events that are scheduled to occur outdoors should have an indoor backup plan. We will be in contact with the renter the week before the event to assess the weather situation. If rain/inclement weather is imminent, a reschedule date will be offered if no indoor option is available. We reserve the right to cancel any reservations due to severe or imminent deterioration of weather conditions. A reschedule date will be offered in any case of cancelation due to weather. If set up is completed outside and weather turns to rain, we will pick up immediately and no refunds will be given.
