Fair Use Policy

We want every renter to enjoy safe, reliable, and well-maintained items. To keep things fair for everyone:

  • Use items responsibly: Follow instructions and use items only for their intended purpose.
  • Respect rental limits: Rentals are for personal use only and may not be sub-rented or loaned to others.
  • Care for items: Treat rentals as if they were your own. Return them clean, dry, and in good working order.
  • Community responsibility: Our rentals are shared among neighbors — please return them in the same condition you’d want to receive them.
  • Right to refuse service: The Rental Nook reserves the right to refuse or cancel rentals if items are being misused, policies are being violated, or customer behavior creates risk.
  • Case-by-case flexibility: We understand life happens. In special situations, we’ll make decisions with fairness to both the renter and The Rental Nook.
