Very poor communication for equipment drop off and pick up. The emphasis was based too much on what was in the contract.

Rented the inflatable archery range this last weekend. It had SEVERAL holes in it which were not noted when we picked it up. We set it up and realized that 1 of the 6 arrows was too damaged to even use. When we went to return it this morning, they were dismissive if not rude. No discount or even acknowledgment of the broken equipment they rented to us. Their primary concern was if the equipment was wet.
Which it wasn't because we didn't want to deal with the 100+ charge for a wet/damp return. So in conclusion, rent from these clowns at your own risk. And if you aren't satisfied, don't expect any sympathy or remediation. The range wasn't even worth the headache we received.

We were looking for a very large blow up obstacle course for our son's birthday. ACME nailed it. A lot of places don't have ones this big. They came and set it up the day before (my kids weren't the last bit upset over that lol). The guys seeing it up were very hemoglobin in making sure the watts or whatever were all good and that it would continue to work well. Our party was a HUGE success and everyone had a fantastic time, kids and parents.
As long a they have the big ones available when we want them, we will continue to use this company. We've already got one in mind for our daughter's grad party 4 years from now lol. But, there will be plenty of parties in between to rent from here.

I had the best experience with ACME. I called last minute to have a yard display delivered over the weekend. They took care of my custom order, it was delivered and picked up perfectly. I can't say enough. They really made the day special.

I have been using Acme Partyworks for my school's carnival and other events for 7 years now. For our largest event, we rent 12-14 inflatables/interactives for a whole day (his includes laser tag, water slides, concessions machines and much more). I have never been disappointed with their service. They have great communication, they have always been on time, and they are fair and understanding when any type of situation arises.
They take pride in what they do which shows in their equipment and through their staff. I always recommend them to people who are looking for a place to rent inflatables and games because they have a huge selection, competitive pricing, and discounts for various scenarios. I will never look for another company to support the large events they I plan. I am a customer for life!

Wonderful to work with Acme Party Works. They let us reschedule our rental TWICE due to poor weather at no additional costs. We will be definitely using them again and highly recommend them to anyone else!
