HINT...GO TO DISCUSSION BOARD FOR HOW TO RENT.  YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS ARE WELCOME.

Think about how much stuff you own, and how little you use some of it. Well there's a new trend....rent it out! Wouldn’t it be nice to make some money on your stuff while it’s sitting around? “If you’re the person who owns the items, the ability to deflate costs on something that you spent a good deal of money on is great, particularly if you’re not using it,”

So what can you make by renting out your stuff or space? You could get over $200 a month for your driveway $10 a day for your bike $10 for your lawnmover $30 for your patio furniture $10 for your folding table $20 for your tent $8 for a kitchen appliance $20 for tableware for a party And on and on.

But you still need to take some precautions. Be sure the site you rent your stuff through offers you protection in case something goes wrong. And check your own insurance policies and zoning laws to make sure it’s ok to rent your driveway, garage or a parking space. If you’re considering renting your stuff or space, you may want to try being a renter first to get a good feel for the experience.
