CUSTOMER COLLECTION:

Customers are able to collect their balloon orders by prior arrangement only.

I love balloons do not guarantee the float time or if any balloons burst once the inflated balloons have been collected from our premises.

Do not use scissors to open bags or boxes that contain inflated balloons, remove sharp rings from fingers when handling balloons, do not place balloons by uneven walls, on uneven ceilings or by uneven door frames, the slightest splinter can cause the balloons to burst. Also avoid placing balloons directly under spotlights / lights/ by candles or next to hot radiators.

Foil balloons are sensitive to temperature change. In cold air they may appear deflated , when moved into warm air this should expand them again. Extreme heat can cause the helium to expand and burst the balloon.

12. Please read and be aware of our Balloon Safety Information page.

13. BALLOON RELEASE STATEMENT

I Love Balloons have taken the decision to no longer offer balloon releases due to environmental concerns about unnecessary litter.

Please PIN AND BIN your balloons after use and avoid releasing helium filled balloons outdoors.
