Service areas · Richmond and the Kansas City metro

Roughly an hour, in every direction.

Burnett's works out of Richmond, the Ray County seat, where Route 10 crosses Route 13 about forty miles northeast of Kansas City. Everything gets built on site, so the drive is part of the job. About an hour is the honest radius, and from Richmond that reaches a long way in three directions.

Pages for the places we work most often

Richmond, MO

Home base and the Ray County seat. Courthouse square rooms, church halls, school gyms and farmhouses, with the shortest setup window on the calendar.

Ray County, MO

Henrietta, Hardin, Lawson, Orrick, Camden, Rayville and every farm road between them. Nothing in the county is more than about half an hour out.

Lexington, MO

Fifteen minutes south across the Ike Skelton Bridge. Antebellum houses, the 1847 courthouse square and rooms with real ceiling height.

Excelsior Springs, MO

Twenty five minutes west on Route 10, half of it in our own county. Historic downtown venues, older homes and a long habit of hosting people.

Liberty, MO

About half an hour west. Historic square venues, north side subdivisions and the busiest graduation calendar in Clay County.

Gladstone, MO

Community rooms, church halls and postwar ranch homes. The town where freestanding pieces do most of the work.

North Kansas City, MO

Business installs along Armour Road, tall commercial ceilings and grand openings that have to be finished before doors open.

Ray County and next door

The close ring. Everything here is inside about half an hour, which is where short lead times and same-day repair trips are realistic:

What about the Kansas side?

Kansas City, Kansas sits right at the edge of the hour and gets answered yes more often than not. Johnson County is past it. Overland Park, Leawood, Lenexa and Olathe are a case by case conversation rather than a routine booking now, and the answer usually depends on the date and whether the venue allows day-before access. Ask rather than assume either way.

Why the map matters for balloon work

Nothing here is shipped. A finished garland cannot survive being transported whole, so every piece gets assembled at your venue on the day. That makes the distance between here and your room a real constraint rather than a marketing line.

Being close buys three practical things. Setup windows can be tight without becoming risky. Takedown can happen the same night instead of the next morning. And if something fails before your event starts, a repair trip is a short drive rather than an apology.

The further out a booking sits, the more those three things depend on planning. That is why a Lee's Summit job leans harder on lead time and on day-before venue access than one ten minutes up Route 13. Same work, more scheduling.

Two things worth sending with the address

A photo of the space, and the venue's decor policy if it is a rented room. Those two attachments answer more questions than any amount of description, and they are the difference between a quote and a guess.

What we bring, wherever it is

The same five services go everywhere: arches and garlands, columns and towers, centerpieces and table decor, full event styling and specialty and custom designs. Delivery, installation and takedown are inside every quote, in every town on this page.

Send the address. We will tell you yes or no.

No guessing about whether you are in range. Send the date and the venue and you will hear back inside 24 to 48 hours with a straight answer and a price.
