Bounce House Rentals in San Francisco
San Francisco yards are small, often terraced and sometimes reached through the house. We pick a bounce house that fits, carry it in, and set it up, and for park parties we work within SF Rec & Park’s jump house rules.
Which bounce house fits a San Francisco yard
Most backyards in the Sunset, the Richmond, Noe Valley and Bernal Heights are narrow lots, often a step or two below the house. The White Mini Combo is our usual answer for those: it is lower and smaller than a castle and still has a slide. Where the yard is wider and flat, a castle in your party colors fits most gardens.
Kingdom Combos need a large, flat space and suit bigger gardens, school yards and park picnic sites more than a typical city lot.
Send a photo of the yard and the route to it to Hello@bayareakidsrentals.com. We will tell you what fits, including whether we can get it through the house or down the side passage.
No yard? Garages and indoor parties
Plenty of San Francisco parties happen in a garage, a lower-floor rec room or a building’s common room. Bounce houses are made for outdoor use, so for indoor parties we usually suggest soft play and a ball pit instead; they need no power and fit through a standard doorway.
Bounce houses in San Francisco parks
SF Rec & Park allows one jump house per picnic or event, up to 25 by 25 feet, with prior approval. Each additional jump house costs $100 plus a $250 security deposit. Not every picnic site can take a jump house, and delivery areas are restricted, so ask about your site when you reserve.

Parking and setup in the city
Tell us about steep driveways, hills, stairs and where the crew can stop. On narrow streets, a driveway or a coned-off space out front makes setup much quicker. We call or text when the crew is on the way, and the team waits ten minutes for someone to meet them.
Delivery & setup
Delivery to central San Francisco is about $80
San Francisco is about 15.9 miles from our Oakland warehouse. That is inside our flat-rate zone, so delivery is $80 however much you book. The fee covers the round trip, setup on arrival and pickup afterwards.
Your exact fee is quoted to your address at checkout.

Good to know
Questions parents ask
How much is a bounce house rental in San Francisco?
Our bounce houses are $300 for the White Mini Combo, $400 for a castle and $650 for a Kingdom Combo with a slide. Delivery, setup and pickup are added at checkout and quoted to your address.
Does a bounce house need power?
Yes. The blower runs for the whole party, so you need a standard outlet nearby. Soft play and ball pits need no power.
What if it rains?
Tell us before the crew leaves the warehouse and there is no cancellation fee; your payment becomes a credit for a new date. Once the bounce house is set up, the rental is charged in full.
Is next-day pickup extra?
No. Same-day pickup is standard, and next-day pickup is free when you choose it at booking.
Can I have a bounce house in Golden Gate Park?
Only at a reserved picnic site that can take one, with Rec & Park’s approval. SF allows one jump house per picnic, up to 25 by 25 feet. See the SF Rec & Park fee sheet.
