  • How long do balloons last indoors?

    Many air filled balloon designs can last weeks indoors! Please note that a space with doors and/or windows open to the outside is considered outdoors because wind, humidity, sunlight can and will affect the balloons. The longevity of your balloons will depend on the environmental conditions of the space and we cannot guarantee that the balloons will last any specific amount of time.

  • How long will my helium balloons float?

    All of our helium balloons will generally float for at least 3 days if indoors, but typically much longer! Again, the longevity of your balloons will depend on the environmental conditions of the space and we cannot guarantee that the balloons will last any specific amount of time.

  • How long do balloons last outdoors?

    Balloons used outdoors are not guaranteed to last any specific amount of time as the sun, heat, wind, rain, etc., affects the lifespan of the balloons.

  • Are balloons biodegradable or can they be recycled?

    Certainly! Our latex balloons are crafted from natural materials and are 100% fully biodegradable, breaking down at a rate similar to that of an oak leaf. On the other hand, foil balloons are not biodegradable but can be recycled and reused. It is important NOT to release any type of balloon outdoors and ensure proper disposal.

  • I bought some balloons from somewhere else, can you inflate them for me?

    No, we can not guarantee the quality or speculate about the longevity of balloons not provided by us. If they are defective or burst during or after inflation there may not be enough balloons necessary for your decor design. It is more time and cost effective for you to order the balloon decor from us using our balloons.
