Need to rent a tool? Earlier this week we had someone write in looking for a place to rent small tools for home improvements. Thanks to all the readers who gave suggestions to help a neighbor.

Yoodlize App

“A great place to rent tools is the Yoodlize app! It's an app that got its start in Utah. You can use it to rent basically anything (including home improvement tools) from local neighbors. It's also a great place to make some passive income renting out your own stuff.” - Kate J.

Nextdoor App

“Maybe check a secondhand store or dollar store. Also, ask on the Nextdoor app if anyone has one to borrow.” - Leclaire

Home Depot & Diamond Rental

“I've been able to rent a lot of those tools at Home Depot or Diamond Rental. You should call before heading over as the item you’re looking for may be rented that day or at a different location (learned that the hard way).” - Roger M.

Keep the recs coming!
