Question 1

​Is council approval required for Ride on Cars in parks?

Accepted Answer

Each council has a list of activities that require council consent for activities in their parks. Brisbane, Ipswich and Logan are our main service areas and do not require any council consent or approval for the use of our Ride on Cars. However, as we cover 11 separate council zones in South East Queensland and have weekly hire bookings. It is not feasible for us to check with council for you as rules are constantly changing. So, as a precaution we always recommend checking with your local council if you feel the need. This advice will be updated if we become aware of any issues with any councils. As of October 2025, we have had no issues with any of the 11 councils.

Question 2

Can I use the Ride on Cars in an indoor hall?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the hall or facility. Some are great and we have had no issues, others are not allowing them at all. As these are private venues we cannot provide a blanket guarantee that a hall will allow them.

Question 3

How many cars I can hire?

Accepted Answer

All our Ride on Car parties are maxed at 10 cars and community events at 8 cars due to safety requirements as decided by our Risk Management Procedures and Risk Assessment outcomes. We may make an exception, but this would require us to conduct an event specific risk assessment and review at a cost to you.

Question 4

Do the parents need to control the cars?

Accepted Answer

Short answer, no they don't, but they can. All our cars come with synced parental remotes for your child's safety and your peace of mind. This means that if your child is unable to drive the car on there own due to age, ability, and/or confidence levels, they still get to have fun and enjoy the ride with parents in control.

Question 5

Is there a bond cost or any other fees?

Accepted Answer

No, unlike every other party hire company, we do not charge a bond or cleaning fees. Our cleaning fees are built into the package price already. What you pay on our website for your package is all you pay. No hidden fees or costs. Our equipment maintenance and cleaning programs ensure everything we hire is top of the line and fit for purpose. We believe that apart from general wear and tear our equipment will not be damaged during your hire. We are strong believers in trust and know it goes both ways. You trust us for your kids special day, we trust you to look after our equipment as best as you can.
