Halloween decorating in Thornton, CO costs anywhere from $430 to $1,300 on average for a front yard and porch display, including setup and takedown.

As early as you can, ideally by early September. October dates fill quickly, and big custom displays with music or animation take several weeks to plan.
That's up to you. Setting up in early October gets you the whole month, and we agree on the takedown date at the same time.
Yes, if we have an opening. October is the busiest month for Halloween installs, so call as soon as you have a date.
The address, photos of the yard and front of the house, photos of any decorations you own, and your setup date. Pictures of displays you like help a lot.
No, not for outdoor work as long as we can reach the yard and an outdoor outlet. Someone needs to let us in for indoor decorating.
