Good for your wallet.Better for the planet.
GigsBuddy is America's community-powered neighborhood toolshed - where everyday people share tools and equipment with the folks right around the corner.
Where it all started
Born out of a simple, neighborly idea.
It started with a perfectly ordinary problem. You need a pressure washer for the weekend. Your neighbor has one sitting in the garage collecting dust. But there was no easy, trusted way to make that connection happen.
So we built one.
GigsBuddy was founded on the belief that communities are stronger when they share - and that the stuff already sitting in America's garages, basements, and sheds is worth a whole lot more when it is actually being used.
We are not a big-box rental store. We are your neighborhood, organized.

What we stand for
We believe in the old school idea that neighbors look out for each other — we just gave it a modern platform
Community first
Every rental is a small act of community building. You are not just saving money - you are meeting your neighbors.
Trust built in
Verified users, secure payments, and item protection options help you lend and Rent with confidence.
Earn from what you own
That drill, tent, or camera does not have to collect dust. It can become a practical income stream.
Better for the planet
Every rental is one fewer purchase and one more item used to its full potential.
The result
Everybody wins
