How to List a Tool
Creating a Listing
Open your Profile tab and tap List a Tool to create a new listing. Fill in:
- Tool name and category
- Condition (New, Like New, Good, Fair)
- Daily rental rate and the tool's replacement value (ToolShed sizes the renter's deposit from it; you never set a deposit yourself)
- Photos (at least 3 recommended)
- Description including any usage notes
Set your pricing, lead time, and Instant Book preference once in listing defaults and every new listing starts from them.
Pricing Tips
Research comparable tools in your area. Start at the lower end of the range to attract early renters and build reviews.
Managing Availability
Use the availability calendar to block dates when your tool is unavailable. You can also pause a listing temporarily without deleting it.
