Start with the party inquiry form and share your date, location, guest count, and party style. Mary reviews requests personally and sends a custom quote within 24 hours whenever possible, so you are not left trying to decode a giant rental menu on your own.
Not yet. Spokane Party People is a small, family-owned business with limited party crate inventory, and Mary personally reviews each party inquiry to confirm availability, delivery timing, package fit, and any special details before sending a custom quote. Automated online ordering is part of the future plan, but for now the party inquiry form helps make sure each family gets the right setup instead of an automatic checkout that may not fit the date, address, or party plan.
Yes. Spokane Party People delivers the party crate on party day and picks it up after the rental window unless a different timing plan is confirmed in your quote. You get the fun without turning your garage into party-supply storage.
Setup and cleanup are not included by default. Most party crates are designed as ready-to-host rentals that families can unpack, enjoy, repack, and leave ready for pickup. Setup and cleanup options may be available at an additional cost depending on the crate, date, location, and staffing availability.
Delivery and pickup are available within the Spokane metro service area, including Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake, Cheney, and more. Exact availability can depend on your address, party date, and timing, so include your location when you submit the party inquiry form.
Yes. Returned gear is checked, sorted, and sanitized between rentals. The goal is simple: open the crate, see the supplies, and feel like the party is ready to go.
Often, yes, but parks may have rules about reservations, permits, power, staking, structures, parking, or activity types. Tell us the park when you submit the party inquiry form so we can help you think through logistics before anyone is hauling party gear across a field.
Not by default. Spokane Party People is primarily a party crate and Drop & Go rental company. We make hosting easier by gathering the supplies, delivering the crate, and picking it up afterward. Setup, cleanup, or additional support may be available for some parties at an added cost.
Yes, when the date, package, location, and logistics are a good fit. Please send the details through the party inquiry form. Larger events may need custom timing, staffing, delivery planning, or package adjustments, and we would rather plan that up front than wing it in a parking lot.
Yes, one $100 booking deposit reserves your date. It does double duty: $50 applies to your rental balance on party day, and $50 is held as a refundable equipment security deposit.
The remaining rental balance is due at delivery, and we refund the $50 equipment security portion within 5 business days after pickup and inspection.
The $50 equipment security portion of your booking deposit is held during your rental and refunded within 5 business days after we pick up and inspect the gear. We are not in the business of making money from equipment deposits.
Normal scuffs, worn darts, and occasional small issues from regular play are not what this deposit is for. It is mainly for missing blasters, missing accessories, avoidable damage, or equipment that is not returned.
We refund the $50 equipment security portion within 5 business days of pickup. After we collect the gear, we count, inspect, and clean it, then issue your refund to the original payment method. If anything is missing or damaged beyond normal play, we will reach out and review it with you before any deduction.
The remaining rental balance is due at delivery. Your quote will show the full total, the $100 booking deposit, and exactly what is left to pay on party day so there is no mystery math at the door.
Normal party wear is expected; parties are supposed to look like people had fun. Missing, heavily damaged, or unreturned items may result in replacement charges according to the rental agreement, and we will review those situations with you clearly before any charge beyond the $50 equipment security deposit.
Life happens. Here is how we handle it:
If a refund is issued, equipment security refunds are processed within 5 business days of the cancellation being confirmed.
Yes. With more than 48 hours notice, we'll transfer your $100 booking deposit to any open date within 90 days at no charge. Just contact us with the new date you have in mind and we will check availability.
Cancellations within 48 hours of your event forfeit the $100 booking deposit because that slot has already been held for you and other bookings turned away. If something serious comes up, reach out. We are human, we listen, and we will do what we can.
If we ever have to cancel because of illness, equipment failure, delivery vehicle issues, or anything on our end, you will get a full refund or a free reschedule, your choice. Equipment security refunds, if any portion was already collected, process within 5 business days.
Spokane weather likes to keep everyone humble. Our policy is reschedule-first: if weather may affect your party, contact us as early as possible and we will help you move the date.
If conditions are unsafe for delivery, such as active storms, ice, hazardous roads, or other safety concerns, we will reach out and reschedule together.
As soon as you start watching the forecast and feeling worried, even 3-4 days out, let us know. The earlier we hear from you, the easier it is to find a great reschedule date inside your 90-day window.
Dart Drop is the flagship Drop & Go foam-dart party rental from Spokane Party People. Customers choose a fixed crate package, then can optionally add a Birthday Hero Blaster or Additional Nights. We deliver the crate, you enjoy the party, and we pick it back up afterward.
Current Dart Drop packages include the Matching Loadout Battle Crate for 10 players or less at $225, the Variety Battle Crate for 10, 15, or 20 players at $225, $275, or $325, the Glow-in-the-Dark Battle Crate at $295, and the Mega Battle Crate at $275. See the Dart Drop page for full details.
Choose the Matching Loadout Battle Crate if you want 10-player-or-less fair-play fun with matching blasters. Choose the Variety Battle Crate if you want mixed blasters or need 10, 15, or 20 player sizing. Choose the Glow-in-the-Dark Battle Crate for evening events with glow darts and lock-ins for the gear that needs them. Choose the Mega Battle Crate when you want the biggest and baddest blasters in the fleet.
Every Drop & Go package includes the selected Battle Crate of foam-dart blasters, darts for the package, safety glasses for the booked package, team armbands, barricades with an air pump, boundary cones to help mark the play zone, practice targets, a quick-start and quick clean-up game guide, delivery, and pickup within the Spokane metro service area.
You can add a Birthday Hero Blaster for $25 each so your VIP gets the big one, or add Additional Nights for $100 per night when booked in advance. Extra nights are great for family reunions, vacation rentals, multi-day backyard play, and weekends when one day is not quite enough.
A few missing darts are part of the backyard-party universe, and we intentionally pack plenty for play. The $50 equipment security portion of your booking deposit is mainly for missing blasters, missing accessories, avoidable damage, or equipment that is not returned. Normal scuffs, worn darts, and occasional small issues from regular play are not what the deposit is for, and the $50 is refunded within 5 business days after pickup and inspection.
That depends on the package. Matching Loadout Battle Crate is capped at 10 players or less because it uses the matching blaster set. Variety Battle Crate can be booked for 10, 15, or 20 players. Glow-in-the-Dark and Mega Battle Crates are fixed specialty packages, so include your player count when you submit the party inquiry form.
All Dart Drop packages are recommended for ages 8+. Kids should be able to follow simple safety rules, keep safety glasses on, and listen when the supervising adult calls a reset.
Yes. Safety glasses are included for the booked package and should be worn by every player during active play. Think of it as part of the uniform: eyewear on, boundaries clear, responsible adult watching, then game on.
Yes. Dart Drop brings the fun, but a responsible adult still needs to be the referee, safety captain, and occasional snack-break negotiator. The supervising adult should review the quick-start guide, keep players in the play area, and pause the game if things get too wild.
The Glow-in-the-Dark Battle Crate is an evening-party package with a curated Glow-in-the-Dark blaster crate, glow darts, and lock-ins for the gear that needs them. Glow darts perform best after charging under a light source, so sunlight, porch lights, garage lights, flashlights, or blacklights can help recharge darts between rounds.
It depends on the space. Many families prefer outdoor play because it gives players more room and makes cleanup easier. If you are considering indoor play, choose a safe area, move breakables out of the way, and set clear boundaries before the first dart flies.
The full Safety page is available at https://spokanepartypeople.com/safety. It is worth a quick read before party day so everyone knows the rules before the backyard becomes an arena.
Party crate options include Dart Drop, Spa Party, Golf Party, Backyard Movie Theater Crate, Large Yard Games Crate, Sleepover Tent Crate, Red Carpet Crate, and more as the lineup grows. Visit the Party Crates page to browse the current lineup and find the one that matches your kind of fun.
Yes. Include the crate you want when you submit the party inquiry form. That helps us confirm availability and recommend the right fit instead of guessing from the party-planning clouds.
Not by default. The crates are designed to make hosting easier by gathering the core supplies in one place. Setup and cleanup options may be available at an additional cost depending on the crate, date, location, and staffing availability.
Sometimes. A crate can pair beautifully with a backyard party, graduation gathering, movie night, school celebration, corporate event, or family gathering. Tell us your idea in the party inquiry form and we will let you know what is practical for the date, location, and amount of party magic involved.
Absolutely. If you have a party theme in mind, send it through the party inquiry form. Spokane Party People is built around making family hosting easier, and custom ideas help us learn what local families want most.
