San Antonio Standard Bounce House Rental
A standard bounce house is the most popular inflatable rental in San Antonio for a reason: it's affordable, simple, and endlessly entertaining for kids ages 3–10. Standard units (typically 13×13 or 15×15 feet) hold up to 6–8 kids at a time and fit comfortably in most backyards. They require one outdoor electrical outlet within 100 feet, a flat setup area with at least 20 feet of overhead clearance, and 2–3 feet of buffer around the unit.
Standard bounce house rental in San Antonio costs $150–$300 for a standard 4–8 hour rental including delivery, setup, and teardown. 19 of 19 verified providers in San Antonio carry standard bounce houses. Weekend and summer dates book up 2–3 weeks in advance — weekday rentals are more available on shorter notice. Delivery covers the San Antonio area including Boerne, Schertz, Seguin.
Safety is the most important consideration for bounce house rentals. Confirm that the unit is ASTM-compliant, inspected before each rental, and that the provider carries general liability insurance. Set a maximum number of jumpers per session and never allow children of very different sizes (and weights) to bounce simultaneously — the height disparity creates risk. Never leave children unsupervised in a bounce house.

What size bounce house fits in a standard San Antonio backyard?
A 13×13 bounce house requires a setup area of about 17×17 feet with 2-foot buffers on each side and 20 feet of overhead clearance. A 15×15 unit needs a 19×19 foot area. Most standard San Antonio backyards can accommodate a 15×15 unit. Share your yard dimensions with your provider when booking — they'll confirm fit and suggest alternatives if needed.
How many kids fit in a standard bounce house at once?
A standard 13×13 bounce house safely holds 4–6 kids at once; a 15×15 holds 6–8. These limits are set by the manufacturer for safety — exceeding them increases the risk of collisions and falls. For parties with 15+ kids, plan for rotating groups of jumpers or consider a larger combo unit.
What's the age limit for standard bounce houses in San Antonio?
Standard bounce houses are designed for kids ages 3–12. Toddlers under 3 should only use bounce houses specifically rated for their age and size. Teens and adults typically exceed the weight limits of residential-grade inflatables. Always review the weight and age limits provided by your San Antonio rental company before allowing any jumpers.
