How the scorecards work

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of reviews carries more weight than a 5.0 from a handful. Recency tracks how lately customers have been leaving reviews. The scorecard figures are calculated from Google data, not edited by hand.

What drives the price of an event rental in San Diego

No prices are published here. Totals usually move with what you order, the event date, how far the truck has to travel, and whether setup and pickup are included. Happy’s says on its site that it charges a mandatory delivery fee, while San Diego Kids Party Rentals says delivery is free in San Diego, so ask each company for one written total that includes delivery.
