Rent it, lend it,
on the same app
A community tool library for the UK. Whether you've got a project this weekend or a drill gathering dust in the cupboard — here's exactly how it plays out, step by step.
From search to tool in hand.
Four steps, mostly on your phone, mostly automatic. Here's what happens at each stage of a handi rental.
- 01Tonight · 2 min
Search for what you need
Pop in your postcode and the kind of tool. We show what's available right now, ranked by distance and rating.
- Filter by distance, price, and date — find a Bosch hammer drill within 1.2 miles.
- Read reviews from real renters — you see the renter's name, not a username.
- Tap to save tools for later, or compare side-by-side.
- 02Within an hour · usually faster
Send a booking request
Pick your dates, send a short message to the owner. They've usually replied before you've put the kettle on.
- Owner reviews your profile and accepts. You're charged only when they accept.
- Built-in chat lets you ask about extras, pickup time, or quirks of the tool.
- Owners reply in 12 minutes on average — most rentals are confirmed same day.
- 03On the day · 5 min meet
Collect & confirm handover
Meet the owner, eyeball the tool, snap a quick handover photo through the app. Booking is confirmed, you're good to go.
- Handover checklist appears in-app — both of you confirm condition together.
- Photos are timestamped to protect both sides if anything's queried later.
- You're protected the second the handover's confirmed — up to £150.
- 04Return day · 2 min
Return clean & review
Hand it back at the agreed time. Owner confirms return, you both leave a quick review.
- Two-tap return confirmation — payment settles within 48 hours.
- Leave a short review; it helps the next renter and builds your own profile.
- Save the tool to rebook later in one tap, or move on to your next project.
Got tools instead of a project?
If you've got a drill in the cupboard you haven't touched in a year, the same four moments — viewed from the owner's seat — turn it into extra income every time someone needs it.
What's baked in, every rental.
Whether you're renting or lending, the same four protections back you. Free, automatic, no upgrades.
£150 damage waiver
Accidental damage and theft, backed automatically on every booking. No add-on, no excess.
Verified people
Every renter and owner passes a government ID check. Two-way reviews on every rental.
Secure payments
Renters pay through handi; owners get paid within 48 hours of return.
Humans on standby
UK-based support, seven days a week. Dispute mediation, late-return chasing — handled by us.
Pick a side. Or both.
Most people end up doing both. Rent the saw you need this weekend; list the drill you haven't touched in a year. It's the same five-minute sign-up.
