OK, my daughter is turning 1 this month and of course we are having a nice little get together. I am looking for a local place that rents tables and chairs, but also rents moon jumpers for the kids to jump around in. I looked around a little, but thought I would get the advice of my friendly and knowledgeable Glen Ellyn neighbors.

So let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Whenever we've rented stuff for parties, we've gone up to a place in Bloomingdale near Stratford Square Mall. I don't find a listing for them now so they may be gone but Thompson Rental on North Avenue (here)has the stuff you are looking for. I haven't rented party stuff from them but we have rented other equipment. We've also rented from Rental Max (here)and there are several locations nearby...one on Roosevelt near the Wheaton-Ellyn border.

Perhaps, Amy, you're thinking of Taylor Rental ??

I've only rented a griddle from them for a pancake breakfast. But their website shows moon jumps, tables, etc. My only advice, and it goes for all rental houses, is to rent the more expensive chairs if there's a choice.

My friend owns Party Central -Near Stratford. Great place.

Party Central. That's the place I couldn't find when I went looking for it. Couldn't remember the name...thanks lupe! We've had the most and best experience with them in terms of party rental stuff.

I think we rented some house-repair-type equipment from Taylor too. We've rented a lot of stuff over the years of major home renovation...thanks to you too middlein!
