Pricing correctly is the difference between a listing that collects dust and one booked every week.
The 1% Rule
Charge 1-2% of the item's retail value per day. A €500 drill = €5-10/day. A €2,000 camera = €20-40/day.
Daily vs. Weekly vs. Monthly Rates
- Weekly — 5× daily (2 days free)
- Monthly — 15× daily (half off)
Seasonal Pricing
- Spring/Summer — garden equipment peak (+20-30%)
- Autumn — leaf blowers, chainsaws
- Year-round — power tools, electronics (stable)
Start Low, Raise Later
Start 15-20% below market for your first 3-5 bookings. Reviews are your best sales tool.
