Snow Cone Machine Rentals in Portland — FAQ
Do I need a permit for a snow cone machine in a Portland park?
For most small, private gatherings, a permit might not be needed. However, large events or public gatherings in parks like Washington Park often require a Portland Parks & Recreation special use permit.
What kind of power source is needed for the machine?
Our snow cone machines typically require a standard 120V outlet. Please ensure you have access to a dedicated power source to prevent overloading circuits, especially at older venues.
Can I use the machine on school district property?
Yes, but always confirm with the specific school or district (e.g., PPS, Beaverton School District) about their policies regarding outside vendors and equipment on school grounds. Some may require proof of insurance.
How much does a snow cone machine cost?
Most snow cone rentals run $125–$275 per day including syrups, cups, and ice for ~100 servings.
What flavors come standard?
Operators usually include 4–6 popular flavors (cherry, blue raspberry, grape, lemon, watermelon). More flavors are available as add-ons.
Do I provide the ice?
Most packages include the ice required for the serving count. Extra ice can be added if you expect a bigger crowd.
