Monster Event Hire

Since 2002, we have proudly operated Monster Event Hire from our commercial premises in Havant. As Joanne and David, we have built our business around delivering dependable event hire services throughout the south of England. Our extensive range includes more than 200 hire items, from bouncy castles, inflatable assault courses and rodeo rides to fairground games, archery equipment, go-karts, photo booths and marquees. We supply equipment for private parties, weddings, corporate occasions, council festivals and school events, ensuring every booking receives the same level of care and professionalism. Every item we provide is owned by us and maintained entirely in-house. Because we never rely on sub-hire companies or third-party agencies, you deal directly with us from your initial enquiry through to the completion of your event. Our team members are all RPII qualified, first-aid trained and enhanced DBS checked, giving you confidence that the people arriving on site are experienced members of our own workforce.

Safety and accountability are central to everything we do. We hold 10 million public liability insurance, including additional cover for licensed venues, and can provide certification whenever requested. Every inflatable is PIPA tagged, inspected annually by our own RPII inspector and supported by PAT-tested electrical equipment. Each inflatable hire includes an anemometer together with a written wind procedure specifying that equipment must not be used once wind speeds reach 24mph. We also prepare risk assessments and method statements for every event. Larger attractions, including our climbing wall, rodeo bull, surf simulator and sweeper, are covered by both ADIPS and PIPA. Dave, our on-site inspector, also carries out PIPA inspections for other hire companies, repairs equipment on site when required and delivers HSE inflatable hire training. Our long-standing relationships with councils, government research organisations, the Royal Navy, schools, colleges and charities reflect the confidence our customers continue to place in us.
