Can your tents be used on concrete?

For an additional fee, Sky High supplies water barrels that will keep your tent secure on concrete and hard surfaces. Please keep in mind that in order for the barrels to effectively secure your tent, your location must be able to provide a source of water also.

What are the different types of tents available for rent?

The types of tents available for rental typically include pole tents, which are supported by poles and are ideal for larger events; frame tents, which have no center poles and offer a clear span of space; canopy tents, perfect for small gatherings or daytime events; and clear top tents, which provide a unique aesthetic by allowing guests to view the sky.

How do I choose the right size tent for my event?

Choosing the right size tent depends on the number of guests, the type of event, and the space required for other elements like dance floors, tables, and chairs. A general rule is to allow 10-12 square feet of space per person for banquet-style seating and 15-20 square feet per person for cocktail-style events.

How much space will my tent require?

At least 5' of space surrounding the perimeter of the tent is required (Although 10' is recommended). We recommend that you perform all area measurements before the day of your event.

What do I do in the event of an emergency weather situation with the tent?

In the event of a hurricane, tornado, or thunderstorm, evacuate the vicinity of the tent and seek shelter immediately. Very strong winds can displace the tent, allowing it to topple or move freely. Call us immediately, however keep in mind we use very strong stakes and heavy water barrels to secure tents from the ground.

How are your tents cleaned and sanitized?

All tents and rental items are cleaned and sanitized as they are returned.

What product do you use to clean the tents?

We only use (ARA) American Rental Association approved chemicals to clean all tents after every use.

How high are drive-through tents?

We use 10ft poles for drive through tents.

What size tents do you recommend for drive through capability?

You can use a 10x10 tent if you just need a place for shade while cars pass by. Another option is to use a 20 x 20 tent or bigger with our 10ft poles.

How far in advance should I book a tent rental?

It's advisable to book a tent rental as soon as you have your event details finalized, especially during peak seasons like summer or early fall. For large events or specific tent types, booking several months in advance may be necessary.

What should I consider when selecting a site for tent installation?

Key factors include the size of the site, ground conditions (grass, concrete, asphalt), accessibility for setup crews, and any overhead obstructions like branches or power lines. Ensure the site is level and has adequate space for all event components.

How much does it cost to rent a tent?

Pricing depends on the item you choose, your event date, and your delivery location, and it always includes delivery, setup, and pickup. Enter your date and ZIP on any product to see that item's live price and confirm it is available.

How many people fit under a tent?

Allow about 10 sq ft per guest for rows of seating, or 15 sq ft with tables. So a 20x40 tent (800 sq ft) holds ~80 standing / ~50 seated at tables; a 30x30 ~90 / ~60; a 40x80 ~320 / ~200. Tell us your guest count and we'll size it right.

Testimonials

Fantastic customer service from all their representatives. Because of a slope in our yard, we needed to get a smaller bounce house, which was a firetruck. Their staff was very helpful with figuring out measurements and placement and finding the perfect unit. Delivery and pick up was on time and the guys were friendly and efficient. The pricing was also great. My little boy was ecstatic when he saw his Firetruck bounce house and it was a huge hit for the party. I will definitely rent from them again.

We have ordered from Sky High many times for personal, business and non-profit use and they are always great. Love how you get a text and can track how close they are for drop off and pick up! Also their crews are always very kind and courteous and assure everything is clean and ready to be used! Even if that means they are cleaning it after set up!! Thank you!
