Budget requirements usually mean that installation decisions are made during planning stages. Choices include:
If you choose to install your playground with volunteers, we strongly recommend that you secure the services of a professional installer to supervise your installation and inspect the finished equipment.
Before you begin your playground installation, volunteers should be instructed to carefully review safety precautions including referencing the US One Call Directory that will help you navigate through the excavation process from pre-planning to job completion as well as sign a liability waiver to protect your organization in case of an accident. Ask your Landscape Structures playground consultant about the availability of volunteer installer’s insurance.
Last but not least, throw a playground grand opening party to help children and adults “bond” with their new playground. Then get ready for healthier kids and a more sustainable community!
Once you've installed your new playground, you're ready to move on to Step Eight: Maintain Your Playground.
