Pick Up and Save
Pick Up and Save
Save some money by picking up some of the equipment that we offer for Will Call pick up at our office in Carol Stream!
If you are looking to save on your upcoming order and if you have a vehicle big enough we do allow customer pick-ups on the following items! Please note, these items are going to be a few hundred pounds, we suggest you pick up only if you have a full-sized cabin pick up truck, towable trailer, or on some occasions, a minivan or SUV with all the seats folded down will work (minivan and SUVs are better for smaller rentals, no inflatables will fit in these).
You will be able to pick these up the day before the event and return the day after OR do a Friday to Monday rental if the unit is available for that whole weekend. We also offer dollies for rent which you will be able to take with you to help transport the unit more easily. These dollies are an additional $25.
*No other discounts or promotions can be combined with the Will Call discount*

Multiple dunk tank options:
When you work with The Fun Ones for your dunk tank rental, you can choose from the following options:
- Deluxe Dunk Tank – This dunk tank rental has a larger tank of water than the traditional version for a much bigger splash. The Deluxe Dunk Tank holds 500 gallons of water.
- Traditional Dunk Tank – The traditional tank features a large window in front, so spectators can watch as the dunked individual falls into the water.
- Big Splash Dunk Tank – This dunk tank is great for the younger kids who may be too little to fall into the tub of water to get dunked. Client will need to supply a water hose to stay connected the whole time. Once the target is hit the water bucket will fall on the participant!

Tent Rentals
Tent Rentals
We are the premiere tent rental company for the entire Chicagoland area.
A tent rental from The Fun Ones is an ideal way to ensure the success of an outdoor event in the Chicago area. Thanks to the typically pleasant weather that begins in the spring and extends through autumn, outdoor gatherings are extremely popular in this area. Unfortunately, you can never completely rule out the chance of rain or winds — especially when you’ve set the date for your event weeks or even months in advance.
But what if you have your heart set on a garden venue situated on the edge of Lake Michigan, with the Chicago skyline as your backdrop? There is absolutely no need to shy away from the great outdoors. With a tent rental in Chicago, IL, from The Fun Ones, you can allow your guests to bask in the gentle breezes and low humidity without having to worry about them getting wet or sunburned.
Our extensive tent rental inventory includes various-sized frame tents, which can be set up on any surface using either stakes or water barrels, canopied structures for grass installations, and large pole tents for any size event or venue. One unique feature of a frame tent is the absence of center poles, which creates an unobstructed interior that allows plenty of room to walk around, mingle, dance, and play. Just let us know the number of people you would like to accommodate, and we’ll suggest the perfect size tent rental to meet your needs.
Our tents can provide invaluable protection at an outdoor event for:
- Guests
- Tables
- Chairs
- Decorations
- Food
- Vendors
- …And more!
