Turn idle tools into income. Discover 5 common tools you can rent out on EquiptList the peer-to-peer equipment rental marketplace where rental listings are free and selling costs just $10 for 6 months.
We all have them. The tools and equipment that seemed like a good idea at the time but now sit gathering dust in the garage, barn, or shed. Instead of letting them take up space, why not put them to work for you?
On EquiptList, it’s free to list tools and equipment for rent and just $10 for 6 months to sell equipment. Here are five common items that could be making you extra cash right now:
1. Pressure Washers for Rent
That pressure washer you use once or twice a year to clean your siding or driveway? Your neighbor would love to borrow it for a weekend project. Average rentals go for $30–$50 a day.
💡 Pro tip: A clean driveway or deck is one of the easiest DIY transformations, which makes pressure washers one of the most popular rentals every season.
2. Garden Tillers for Seasonal Projects
Spring and fall bring a rush of gardeners looking to turn soil. But most folks don’t own a tiller. If you’ve got one, you’re holding onto a seasonal money-maker.
💡 Pro tip: Offer weekend rental bundles, people love having extra time to finish their garden prep.
3. Utility Trailers for Hauling
From hauling mulch to moving furniture, trailers are one of the most versatile items you can list. And they’re expensive to buy new.
💡 Pro tip: Post clear photos and mention the trailer size/weight capacity. Renters want to know if it’ll fit their project.
4. Generators for Backup Power
Storm season or outdoor events? Generators are always in demand. Yours could be providing backup power for a family or keeping the lights on at a weekend gathering.
💡 Pro tip: Make sure to note the wattage and fuel type in your listing to save renters guesswork.
5. Snowblowers for Winter
They sit all summer long, but when the snow hits, everyone wants one. If you’ve got a snowblower tucked away, you could be helping a neighbor and pocketing cash during the winter months.
