Helium Balloons & Event Hire terms and conditions

We supply helium balloons and event hire items selected by you. We only use professional quality decorating balloons (latex and foil balloons). For your safety we ask that you do not inhale helium gas directly or attempt to syphon it off. Latex balloons will last approx 12-24 hours when filled with helium gas (depending on climate) and foils on average between 6-10 days. Foils can be refilled with helium to extend their float time.
