About Us
Our Home is Lethbridge Alberta
We recognized a need for Local businesses to be able to rent out their own equipment easily and safely. We also recognized a need for community members to be able to rent equipment from a neighbor down the street. This is a Win Win for everyone. Local business and community members benefit.
We are currently in Phase 1 which is exclusive for Lethbridge and surrounding area equipment and tool owners.
Phase 1 will be Approximately from Feb 15 2021 to April 15 2021
We do not want to advertise to renters yet because when they visit the site and it doesn’t have what they want or need they will most likely not return. This is why we do it in phases.
