Bounce House Rental Profit & Capacity Calculator
Price the whole rental cycle — delivery, setup, event, takedown, cleaning, route time, card fees, repair reserve and the inventory itself. Then test whether your crew and units can actually support the Saturday you are about to sell.

Business planning only. This tool does not provide anchoring, wind, electrical, occupancy or operating instructions. Follow the inflatable manufacturer instructions, inspections, weather limits and every applicable local safety requirement.
The event time is not the labor time
A four-hour party can consume a much larger slice of the business day. Delivery, setup, pickup, takedown and cleaning all use paid labor and route capacity. If only event time is visible in the price, the invisible cycle quietly becomes unpaid work.
Let the unit pay for itself on purpose
Inventory is not free after purchase. Assigning a recovery amount to every rental shows how many jobs are required to earn back the unit before repair, replacement and growth. The calculator separates that planned inventory recovery from labor and operating cost.
Capacity is the smaller of two numbers
You can own ten inflatables and still only have crew capacity to turn over four. Or have plenty of labor but only three suitable units available. The daily capacity model shows both limits and uses the smaller one as the practical ceiling.
