Get Your Home Winter Ready!
Library of Things is a place where you can borrow useful Things for your home, projects and adventures.
The cost-of-living crisis means many of us are trying to save money and reduce non-essential spending.
We can all save money by affordably renting quality products instead of buying them – whether its a drill, a karaoke machine or a sewing machine.
Why borrowing is better than buying:
- it’s more affordable
- cuts down on clutter
- beats next-day delivery
- meet your neighbours, get involved in your community, or even learn a new skill that could change your outlook on life.
- sharing the things you won't use often is a simple action we can take to live more sustainably so it's kinder to your planet.
So how do I join the Library of Things
It takes 3 easy steps:
Step 1: Join and reserve
Browse the Things online and make a reservation to borrow.
Step 2: Borrow and return
Collect your Thing. Use it. Then return it when you’re done.
Step 3: Track your impact
See how much waste you’ve saved from landfill by borrowing instead of buying.
