Our Mission. Our mission is pretty simple. Our goal is to provide our customers with the best equipment and the best service at the best price possible. We are committed to conducting ourselves the right way - professional, courteous, and ready to help. No event is too large or too small for us. You can expect the best from FunRent. As a part of our service, we always setup and takedown our equipment. We believe that is what you expect and should be able to count on. Unlike many other companies, we never tack on hidden charges or administrative fees. With FunRent, you get free delivery within the greater Seattle/Eastside area. Outside that area, there may be a delivery charge that we'll quote right up front. We do make every effort to keep any delivery charges as low as possible.

Safety. We are committed to safety. All our inflatables are inspected annually by an independent inspector authorized by the Department of Labor & Industries. All inflatables are licensed and permitted by the Department. We do not take shortcuts when it comes to safety. It may cost a few dollars more, but it's well worth the effort. We are fully insured. Remember, there are companies that take short cuts, but those shortcuts could come at a very high cost. Take a look at our commitment to safety:

• Our staff are trained in the best practices for the safe setup and operation of our equipment.

• We spend time with you and your volunteers to ensure you understand the safety rules for each piece of equipment.

• Safety rules are posted on the equipment.

• Every year, our equipment is inspected by an independent inspector authorized by the State of Washington, Department of Labor & Industries.

• We are fully licensed and insured.

• We are members of SIOTO - the  Safe Inflatable Operators Training Organization. As a member, we've pledged to follow SIOTO's  guidelines for safe equipment and safe events.  SIOTO guidelines are designed to do just that.

Insurance. FunRent carries the state-mandated $1million of liability insurance. State law requires inflatable providers to furnish a certificate of insurance to its clients. To keep from increasing the amount of paperwork required at setup and to save a few trees, we have posted our insurance certificate on our website. We've also incorporated it by reference into our rental agreement. You can view our certificate by clicking on the link below.

Our Fees. We want to provide high quality equipment, on-time delivery, and the very best customer service - all at reasonable prices.  We try our best to be sensitive to the needs of our customers in terms of pricing and service.

Our intent is to charge a fair price for the quality you get. Unlike some companies that choose to operate outside the rules and regulations established for our industry, we do not take short cuts. We believe safety is of paramount importance, so we are particular about following the rules. Our prices always include setup and takedown of the equipment. FunRent is proud that we have no hidden fees! What we quote you is what you pay. With only minor exceptions for difficult deliveries (office buildings, stairs, etc,), we offer free delivery, setup, and takedown within the Greater Seattle/Eastside area. Outside that area, there may be a nominal delivery fee.

Call or email us for pricing information.

Our Commitment to the Community. At Fun Rent, we do things a little different that other companies. We care about the communities we serve and our impact on the environment. While we realize our contributions are small, we are proud to lead our industry in doing everything we can to be a good citizens. We are proud members of the Better Business Bureau and the Chamber of Commerce.  Here are some of our policies we hope are creating a positive impact:

• We now only buy equipment made in the United States. Most other companies are buying imported equipment because it costs less. We're supporting jobs here.

• We provide gift certificates to the schools, PTAs, and other nonprofit organizations that use our services. These gift certificates are valuable items at their auctions. We also support a number of nonprofit organizations in our service area.

• We encourage our delivery teams to eat and purchase fuel and snacks in the local communities we serve.

We know our global impact is small, but we want to do everything we can to be a good citizen of the communities we serve.

Our Commitment to the Environment. At FunRent, we are concerned about the environment and our impact on it. We are a green company that cares. Here's some of the things we're doing to lessen our environmental footprint:

• We've discontinued printed catalogs. We simply could not justify the impact of all that paper and ink on the environment. We keep our website completely up to date so you can see how much we have to offer.

• We arrange our delivery routes to require as little driving as possible. That reduces our carbon emissions and consumption of petroleum products.

• We use biodiesel or biodiesel blends in our diesel engines.

• Where feasible, we use diesel generators rather than gasoline generators for larger events.

• We change the oil and filters in all our engines - trucks and generators - well before the manufacturers recommended intervals. That keeps our engines running at peak efficiency levels.

• All used oil, filters, and fluids (transmission, antifreeze, etc.) are sent to recycling centers even though it costs us more.

• We print only what's necessary for us to conduct our business reducing our consumption of paper.

• Used paper, plastic, and metal products are sent to recycling centers even though we pay extra.

• The vinyl from retired inflatables is recycled as repair materials.

• Our vehicles are washed at centers that recycle or filter the waste water.

• Retired computer equipment is sent to recycling centers.
