Depending on your regions regulations, you may or may not be required to carry liability insurance. If you are not required, and you have the funds available, it is recommended to obtain liability insurance for your rental company. Besides the security you will have from possible lawsuits, it will allow you to setup your inflatables at venues where it is required. This includes most schools, parks and other event centers.
The amount of insurance needed varies by region. In some areas the minimum can be one million or less. In others the minimum might be two million or more. You will need to check with your local schools and parks departments to verify the amount. You might find that most require liability insurance with $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 annual aggregate.
