Mileage fees will always be clearly stated in the event proposal and/or invoice. By accepting a proposal or booking an event, the client acknowledges and agrees to the applicable mileage and travel fees at the time of booking.
Inclement Weather Policy
The CartCade trailer is a semi-enclosed, open-air mobile arcade and simulator—not a fully enclosed or weatherproof structure. While it provides some shelter from sun and light weather, it is not designed to operate in heavy rain, high winds, lightning, or other hazardous conditions. CartCade staff reserves the right to shut down or delay operations at any time due to unsafe weather. If CartCade is unable to resume or extend operations to fulfill your full booking time, a credit (“rain check”) will be issued only if more than two (2) hours of time are lost. Lost time under 2 hours will not be refunded or credited.

For events involving walk-up traffic or large guest volumes, the host is responsible for ensuring appropriate crowd control measures are in place. This may include signage, line management, or support staff to maintain a safe and manageable experience.
