To rent a water slide in Palm Beach County, you need four things: a flat, clear spot, a garden hose that reaches it, power for the blower, and a place that allows water rentals. At Crazy Games FL, our Slip n' Slide starts at $199, and our own inflatable water slides start at $449. Here's how to check each item before you book, so party day goes smoothly.
1. A flat, clear spot
Walk the spot before you book. Look for flat ground with no tree branches overhead, and measure it with a tape measure. Our Slip n' Slide is 50 feet long and 10 feet wide, and it needs a flat, grassy area. For our inflatable slides, send us your measurements and we'll tell you the exact space each one needs. Our yard size guide shows you how to measure, including the path from the street to your yard.
Also think about where the water will go. A water slide wets the ground around it, so pick a spot where the runoff won't head into a neighbor's yard or across your patio.
2. A hose that reaches
Find your nearest outdoor spigot and count the steps to the spot you picked. Our Slip n' Slide needs access to a standard hose. If the spigot is far away, you can add our 50-foot hose from $25. On the 18' Sunshine Double Lane Water Slide, the hose is sold separately, so plan for it when you add up your cost.
3. Power for the blower
An inflatable slide stays up with an electric blower that runs the whole party. Tell us how far the slide will be from your nearest outdoor outlet when you book. No outlet close by? Add a generator from $175. The Sunshine Double Lane lists the generator and sandbags as sold separately, so ask us what your setup needs.
4. A place that allows water rentals
This is the step people miss. A backyard is usually the easy choice, but many parks say no. Palm Beach County parks don't allow water slides or slip and slides, and most city parks have the same rule. Delray Beach, for example, doesn't allow water items at its park pavilions. Our park rules guide lists the rules city by city.
Live in an HOA, condo or rental? Check your community rules first and get the OK in writing. At a school, church or other private site, ask whoever manages the property before you book.
What a water slide rental costs
These are the starting prices on our site today, before tax:
Every order has a $350 minimum, so a Slip n' Slide works best with something else. For example, a Slip n' Slide ($199) plus a Popcorn Machine ($199) comes to $398. Delivery is free within 15 miles of West Palm Beach, and farther out the delivery fee shows at checkout. See our party rental price guide for more.

Water slide or dry slide in winter?
South Florida winters are mild. Average highs in West Palm Beach are about 80 degrees in November and about 75 in January, based on 1991–2020 climate normals. Plenty of days can work, but wet kids get cold fast when it's cloudy or breezy.
Look at the forecast and think about the time of day. A midday party is usually warmer than one that runs into the evening. If you'd rather skip the chill, our Carnival Combo Dry and Palm Tree Combo Dry Slide start at $349, with all of the bouncing and sliding and no water. Not sure which type fits? Read bounce house, combo or obstacle course.
Whatever the season, inflatables can't be used during lightning or strong wind. Have a backup in mind with our rain plan guide.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own hose for a water slide rental?
You need a hose hookup close to the slide. If your spigot is far away, or you don't have a long enough hose, you can add our 50-foot hose from $25.
Can I rent a water slide for a park party?
Usually not. Palm Beach County parks and most city parks don't allow water slides. Pick dry games for a park party, or hold the water slide at home.
Who sets up the water slide?
Our crew delivers it, sets it up and takes it down. You make sure the spot is clear and the hose and power are ready.
Do kids need an adult watching?
Yes. An adult needs to watch the kids the whole time, and kids should wear swimwear.
Which areas do you serve?
We're based in West Palm Beach and serve Palm Beach, Martin, Broward and Miami-Dade counties. See all areas we serve.
