An interesting new idea is brewing in New Zealand as reported by Springwise. Hire Things is a new company that is offering a marketing channel for hiring things, which could be of a huge variety. All you have to do is to register with Hire Things, list your item and its rental price, select how you want your item to be displayed, as in on a public platform or only to your known circle and you're set. When someone books your item, you will receive an email, along with the costs, which you can accept, reject or negotiate. The service is free for now, which will be changed at a later date.
Hire Things plans to establish similar marketplaces in Australia, the UK and other countries. The concept should definitely appeal to consumers who'd like to tackle a backyard project but get cold feet at the idea of buying tools they'll use only once, or would like to try out a new hobby without spending hundreds of dollars on something they might not be interested in three weeks from now.
