Best Things to Rent Out for Extra Money

1. 

   Tools and DIY

   A neighbor may need a tool for one repair or one project, then hand it back. Between those jobs, it stays with you.

   For example: Drills, Saws, Step ladders

2. 

   Lawn and garden

   Mowers, pressure washers and blowers often sit unused outside a season. Someone else may need one for a weekend of yard work.

   For example: Lawn mowers, Pressure washers, Leaf blowers

3. 

   Events and parties

   Tables, shelter and lighting are often needed for a single gathering, not every week.

   For example: Tables, Pop-up canopies, Event lighting

4. 

   Camping and outdoors

   Tents and water gear are typical of a trip, then stored until the next one.

   For example: Tents, Kayaks, Paddleboards

5. 

   Cameras and audio

   A camera, a tripod or a speaker can cover a shoot or a party without the renter buying one.

   For example: Cameras, Tripods, Speakers

See what can and cannot be listed

1. 1

   You already own it

   You own the item, or you have the rights and permissions required to list it.

2. 2

   Someone else may only need it for a while

   A project, an event, a season, a move or a trip is the kind of use renting is built for.

3. 3

   It can be used again

   Listed items are non-consumable and suitable for repeated use.

4. 4

   You can store it between uses

   It already has a place at home when it is not out on a rental.

5. 5

   You can keep it ready

   It should be safe, clean, functional and accurately described, including any limits.

6. 6

   You can choose when it goes out

   Your calendar, your pause switch and each accept or decline stay with you.

If you use an item yourself most of the time, listing it may not be a good fit. Occasional use on your side is a more natural match.

1. 1

   List what you own

   Add photos, a daily price and the dates it is available. Creating a listing is free.

2. 2

   It is reviewed first

   A new listing is reviewed before it appears, and it stays unpublished until lender verification is complete.

3. 3

   You accept or decline

   Renters send a request. They pay through Super Neighbor only after you accept.

Listing is free. A 10% lender fee applies when a rental is confirmed. How lending on Super Neighbor works.

• Your price

  Set a daily price of at least CAD $1. You can also add a lower daily rate for 3+ days and for 7+ days. Those rates cannot be higher than the base daily price.

• Your calendar

  Block dates when the item is not available, and pause the listing when you do not want new requests.

• Pickup or delivery

  Choose pickup only, pickup or delivery, or delivery only. Super Neighbor does not deliver the item. If a renter asks for delivery, agree the fee in chat before you accept.

• A security hold you choose

  Set a security hold on the listing, between CAD $100 and CAD $400. It is a temporary authorization on the renter's card before handover, not a charge and not part of your earnings. It is released if the item is returned as agreed.

• Renters verify before they request

  A renter verifies their identity and phone number before they can send a rental request.

• Payment goes through the platform

  After you approve a request, the renter pays through Super Neighbor. Payments are processed by a third-party payment provider.

• Handover and return are confirmed

  Renter and lender confirm the handover and the return in the app, and tools are available to report an issue.

• Listings are reviewed first

  New listings are reviewed by Super Neighbor before they appear in the marketplace.
