In my listing of things you can hire from me, you’ll find a listing for a stainless steel Pacsafe safety mesh which you put around backpacks to lock them up safely.
I have just received a booking through Hire Things for this for all of April (from someone out of the blue). I asked the person making the booking how they found out about the site. His response…
“You’ll be pleased to know that I was trying to find a cheap place to buy a Pacsafe protector, and did a google on “Pacsafe” (limited to NZ) and your site was at the very top! It never occured to me that I might find one for rent – nice work there, it was just above trade me. Trademe is probably how we’ll get our second one for the trip. :)”
“…your site was at the very top!… it was just above trade me.” – Not bad eh!
The other thing here is the role of Hire Things in providing a “long tail” of things for hire that one would not find through traditional channels… “It never occured to me that I might find one for rent – nice work there”
What have you got you can hire out from time to time?
Hire Things - things for hire!
