The no-touch option, Phoenix and Tucson
If you are in greater Phoenix or Tucson there is a second way to do this that involves you doing nothing at all. We bring the blimp, the helium, the installation, the weather monitoring and the removal.
Blimp service is $297.25 a day, balloon service is $247.25 a day. Tucson adds $30 a day. A Saturday and Sunday with a blimp is $594.50.
Billing is every Monday for the weekend just finished. No contract, no minimum, stop any time. If weather keeps it down, there is no charge. One builder currently runs four of our blimps every weekend on exactly this arrangement.
Service is Phoenix and Tucson only. Our trucks and crew have to get there. Anywhere else, buying is the answer.
Questions we get weekly
Is the artwork really included?
Yes. Full color, both sides, inside the $1,526.
How fast can I have it?
Three to seven days production after artwork approval, then two to five days shipping.
Do I need a permit?
Not from the FAA below 150 feet, and we fly at 120. Check local sign rules with your city.
What happens in wind?
Over 25 mph forecast, bring it down. That single habit is why some customers are on year fourteen.
What if it wears out?
Send it back and we replace it. Wear is covered. A balloon lost to weather is not.
