HireThings--NewZealand 's Hire And Rental Marketplace

What Company is Offering:
Hire Things is proudly brought to you by the team at Let Use It Limited, a business founded on the vision of establishing and operating resource sharing marketplaces around the world.

They aim to make Hire Things a useful tool for businesses, clubs, groups, and individuals to find what they need, when they need it, and to promote what they have that others can use. You can download a Brief Sheet here.
How it Works:


They work to make hiring a renting an option that, more and more, you consider a smart alternative to buying, storing, insuring, and maintaining everything you just need to use from time to time.

And for those things you do buy, hiring out lets you justify buying things of much better quality, that will last longer, and that many people can use
Unique Features:
* After you have registered, you can list specific products, goods, places, and services you have for hire, rent, lease or let.
o Make sure you profile is up to date, with a description of your business or yourself, and your contact details
o You may include a detailed description, photos, and even bond/deposit requirements.
o You define the hire rates and optionally the quantity you have on offer.
+ Currently you can define any or all of theses:
# Hourly rate, 4-hour rate, daily rate, week rate, and month rate
+ You can indicate if this is just a single item, or if you have a set number of these available, or if you just have lots
# if it is just a single item, the Hire Things booking system will show potential customers when the item is already booked out, to avoid duplicate bookings
# if you indicate you have more than one of these items, then the system will not show other bookings to customers on the calendar
o Any special rates, discounts, or terms can be entered in the description or terms.
* Customers can view your listing's details and can submit a quote or booking request
o requests will include the dates, quantity, and any other requirements they have.
o The Hire Things website will calculate an estimated cost for the booking for you and the customer
o You are notified by email of the new request, and upon viewing may confirm the booking or respond with a firmer quote.
* Once a booking is confirmed, the contact details of the customer are shown to you on the booking, and vice versa to the customer, so you can both work out any final details.
* The customer pays you directly for the hire.
* Once the hire period is completed, or after 2 weeks if it is a longer hire, we will deduct a success fee from your Hire Things account.
