How to Load a Bounce House Trailer (The Easy Way)

Today I'm teaching you how to load a bounce house trailer the easy way! So this is the super unique way that I load our trailers. There is MANY ways top do this, and this isn't the "right" way to do it, it's the way I like to do it.
I load my bounce house trailers this way for 3 reasons:
1. It's easier than tipping them over and having to pick them back up
2. It looks better to customers as you drive down the road
3. My 1st trailer was so small, I had to do it this way
The dolly that I use is THE BEST for this method, and I always use the trailer ramp every single time, which will make sense when you see how this is done!

Nick quit his 16 year "career" as as a District Manager for Journeys shoes in August 2019, and while he worked to scale The Jump Off, he drove uber, sold trash that he found on the side of the road, and picked up as many odd jobs (like building swing sets) as he could.
Then in late 2019, Nick hit "The Bounce House lottery" (originleadersh...) and when the pandemic shut everything down in 2020, he sprung into action and took that moment to make The Jump Off what it is today!

Just started my tiny bounce house business. Wanting to get bigger ones like you have . The competition is fierce in Lexington,KY since the business is so seasonal here. Thanks for your help man. I enjoy watching you and listening to what you have to share. Best wishes brother! 😎

Right on man!! Yeah follow what I do and you’ll dominate everyone. Takes time and hard ass work! But that’s the fun part 😁

Can you assist in what route I need to take. I am thinking about starting up a inflatable business. Just some tips and tricks from insurance, waivers and what not to rolling up large ones and reloading. Pretty much everything you can think of. Also places you would suggest to buy them. Thank you

Have you ever had any issues with the forklift part damaging your units?

[@nick_o_glass]

Nope not even close!

[@jorgemendez6637]

Hello sir awesome vids. Question besides the size of course what’s the difference between a 15x15 vs a 13x13 ? Am stuck trying to decide if it’s better to go with the bigger size ???

[@nick_o_glass]

No diff for you or the clients tbh. Buy the one you like the most

[@jaybryson8561]

Hey boss, #1 do you buy any inflatables from overseas? #2 do you place tarps at the traffic areas or under the whole inflatable?

[@nick_o_glass]

1 no 2 whole inflatable!

I just started my very small bounce business in Cape Coral, Fl. I hope it goes well but it super hard work.

How has it been going for you?

[@robingalazv1185]

Hi, I liked your game loading cart. I've been dealing with my games, loading and unloading them, you can see that it is a very good work tool. I congratulate you.

[@nick_o_glass]

Thank you Robin!

[@oespinoza2170]

Do you have the slides in the actual bags it comes in?

[@jacobsanborn6047]

Is it reasonable to only start out with 2-3? It will just be me running the show. I I'm familiar with setting them up and maintenance, I did this several years ago out of high school. An older now and want to just do it as a hobby/side hustle on the weekends. How much does insurance usually run?

[@nick_o_glass]

Totally reasonable. That’s what we started with! $2000/yr from start, it will remain at that until you’re making about $50,000 in revenue. Insurance is based off of revenue not number of units.

[@DIYDiaz]

Another super helpful video! Thank you! I’ve been wondering how the loading process goes

Where did you get that black dolly? I have one from jolly dolly that works good but that one looks cool too im going to need a new one soon

[@nick_o_glass]

I’m a huge fan of the black dolly, especially for smaller units or just starting out. My guys prefer them over every other Dolly we have except a motorized dollies. Buy it at spacewalksales.com.

[@YourboySluggo]

Hey Nick, I got a question. What is that dolly called? I'm just curious how much they cost. New and used. Thanks for the videos. This idea of renting bounce houses just popped in my head when 2 girls at work told me how much they rented out for. Love your videos. Great information.

[@nick_o_glass]

Https://spacewalksales.com/category/accessories/supermover-dolly

[@nick_o_glass]

That one is the cheapest one and works great we have 2! It’s like $600 or so. Renting bounce houses is crazy good money and scales fast when you do a good job, BUT it’s hard work though not some passive income side gig (passive income doesn’t exist anyways)

[@felixvargs144]

Where did you get your dolly? Just got our first big water slide

[@nick_o_glass]

These are from spacewalksales.com but if you really want some leverage get the manual jolly dolly and thejollydolly.com if you have the coin to afford one motorized dollys are worth their weight in GOLD. Worth every penny of the $4000+ price tag. I use a rollsall.com it’s incredible

[@intrinsicwizard]

what is the legality of doing public events in things like parks etc. I know you need the insurance with the certificate, anything else? who would i even contact in the instance to get permission legally?

[@nick_o_glass]

Insurance is it

What do you use to repair a whole or stitching?

Good nick glasset

[@jayvillarreal2270]

What type of tarps do you use for the waterslides?

[@nick_o_glass]

So I tarp under the WHOLE unit, which means I need big ass tarps, so I get the cheapest ones from harbor freight. Most are 20 x 40 or 20 x 30 and then the dry units get 20 x 20

[@jaybryson8561]

@jay try Amazon when they have their discounts. I've gotten better deals than harbor freight sales

Hello. I inboxed you on instant messenger. Had a question.

Replying here too cause I promised I always would! 😂

[@jamesgil8075]

Next time park the trailer by your storage unit

[@nick_o_glass]

It is. Where I have it parked is the best way to load and unload. I’ve tried it parked everywhere possible

[@jamesgil8075]

If you parked it on the same side as where your unit is located AND where the back of your trailer is facing your storage unit you wouldn't have to run all the way back that far. It'd be less running so far back to load up. BTW have you thought about investing in a motorized dolly of some sort?

[@nick_o_glass]

@@jamesgil8075 it doesn’t work I’ve tried it. It’s harder. And yes I have a motorized dolly. It’s not good at getting the slides off the pallets and it’s a little more clunky to load.

[@nick_o_glass]

@@jamesgil8075 also I can’t back the trailer to the unit it’s only 20 ft wide in there.

[@jamesgil8075]

Ah ok. I thought you could maybe drive around the other way or something so the back of your trailer is right by your unit instead of across from it but not sure how that storage unit is set up.... Just a thought.. Yes, motorized dolly is a bit clunky and heavy if you plan on picking it up, but well worth it when you have plenty of space to load it up on. Just So Much easier on your body then having to push everything back and forth through grass, wet grass and/or mud, cause you just never know what the customers' yard is going to look like until you get there. Makes it easier on your workers as well.
