AJS Bouncy Castle Hire in short
AJS Bouncy Castle Hire is a Telford firm run by Ash and Holly that suits a big setup, with castles, long assault courses, event slides, games, soft play, hot tubs and marquees from one base, delivering across Shropshire and into Staffordshire and the West Midlands. Stated cover with safety certificates available on request makes it our judgement of the most complete large-event hire in this round.
Customer reviews are the firm's loudest asset, with four point nine stars on Google across the reviews we hold. PIPA, ADIPS and RPII testing is stated on its own site, prices and no-deposit booking terms are written down, and the office answers every day. AJS Bouncy Castle Hire suits you if castles, courses and marquees must come from the same supplier.
What counts against it is that the testing claims trace only to its own site and no VAT position is published. Neither is unusual at this end of the market, and both are visible on the card for you to weigh.
Our verdict
Our judgement: AJS suits you if you want one Telford firm for a large setup spanning castles, courses and marquees, with stated cover and an office open 7 days a week [1] [3]. Prices and booking terms are written down [1]. What counts against it is accreditation traceable only to its own site, and no VAT position [1] [3].

Questions about AJS Bouncy Castle Hire

On our evidence, yes for big setups: it sits second in our Telford table, holds four point nine stars on Google across a deep set of reviews, and spans castles, courses and marquees from one base.

Is AJS Bouncy Castle Hire PIPA registered?
