    starting to rent gear

    Hey every time I have rented my gear, i'm hired as a shooter so i know my gear is being handled properly.
    i'd like to make some extra income and rent my gear even if they don't need to hire me as a shooter, what is the
    best way of going about that?

    Do i need extra insurance?

    Anyone using ShareGrid to rent their stuff? Seems like it would work good as they insure your gear. I signed up, just haven't put my gear up their yet.

      i wouldnt do it. i would rent to trusted colleagues. anyone else full deposit for the value of the gear. any other way youre just begging to have your stuff mistreated with no accountability.

        I agree with the above.
        Others may have different experiences, but what I find is that almost no one gives a care about anything. A person can sacrifice their life blood and to another it means nothing. When there is no accountability there will be trouble. Easy come. Easy go.

        Oops I stole it... sucker. Haha!

          Thanks for the info, I guess I'll probably just rent it out to trusted friends.

            Cameralends.com may be similar, a bunch of stuff for rent in Phoenix. Maybe ask some of these people their experience?
