How do I know what borrowing terms apply?
BorrowHive shows the important details before you confirm a request. The price and any applicable taxes, deposit, or promotional terms vary by listing and location.
Who is BorrowHive for?
BorrowHive is for people who need a tool and people with useful equipment to share. Residents of neighborhoods and HOA communities use the same member accounts to list tools, send requests, and coordinate directly with one another.
What kinds of tools can I find?
Inventory varies by community and can include power tools, ladders, yard equipment, cleaning gear, moving equipment, shop tools, trailers, and project kits.
Can I join BorrowHive anywhere in the United States?
Yes. BorrowHive is available to members across the United States. What you can borrow depends on the inventory shared in and around your community.
How does identity verification work?
A Verified person badge appears after a member completes a government ID and selfie/liveness check. The badge makes completed identity verification visible while identity documents and selfies stay off public profiles.
What can I learn about a tool before borrowing?
Owners add photos, descriptions, and condition details to their listings. Review the listing, send a request, and coordinate directly with the owner before pickup.
When are exact pickup details shared?
Public discovery uses a pickup area rather than an exact address. Exact pickup details are shared after an owner approves a request so members can coordinate the handoff.
How do I report a listing or get support?
Choose Report listing in the app or email support@borrowhive.com. Your report goes directly to the BorrowHive team for private review.
