Borrow anything from your neighbours

Someone nearby already has one. Borrow it for the weekend instead of buying a thing you'll use once.

Launching first in Oakville, Ontario.

How it works

Three steps, then you're holding it

Hoopo handles the money and the dates. You and your neighbour handle the handshake.

1

Find it near you

Search what you need, or browse what's close. Everything shows its daily rate and how far away it is.

2

Pick your dates

The calendar shows what's already booked. You see the full price — rental and fee — before you pay a cent.

Meet and borrow

Message to arrange a time. Once you have it in your hands, tap to confirm — that's what releases the owner's payment.

What people lend

Half your street owns a ladder

Pressure washers, marquees, roof boxes, camera lenses, carpet cleaners. The things that live in a garage for fifty weeks a year.

Trust & safety

Handing your drill to a stranger

That's the hard part of lending, so it's the part Hoopo is built around.

Everyone is ID verified

Renters verify a government document and a live selfie through Stripe before their first booking. Owners do the same before a listing goes live. Hoopo never sees the document itself.

Money waits until you meet

Your payment is held from the moment you book until you confirm the item is actually in your hands. Nobody gets paid for a handover that never happened.

No deposit to find

A $60 rental costs $60, not $260. Your card is saved rather than charged, so damage can be settled for what it actually costs if it happens.

Change of plan is free

Cancel up to 72 hours before pickup and you get everything back. Cancel later and you'll see exactly what it costs before you confirm, never after.

Lend yours

Your garage is full of other people's weekends

The pressure washer you bought for one afternoon in 2022. The tent from the festival. List it, set a daily rate, choose the days you're happy to lend.

You keep the full rental.

Hoopo's 15% service fee is charged to the renter on top, not taken out of what you're paid. Money reaches your bank through Stripe after the handover.

One town first, so that when you search for a lawnmower there's actually a lawnmower. Leave your email and we'll tell you the day it opens.
