Instruction manual

Select a rental location. The premises do not have to be rented in the city center. An area of ​​about 40 square meters will be sufficient.

2

Get the necessary equipment and accessories. The room should have a counter for customer service and racks for storing tools. From furniture, get a table and chair for staff. Also purchase a computer, printer, and telephone.

3

Decide on the assortment of rental locations. At the rental point, you should have an assortment of goods with a list of about 30 items. They can be conditionally divided into groups:

- percussion-rotary tools (jackhammer, puncher, wrench, drill, etc.);

- welding, compressor and installation tools (lawn mower, welding machine, spray gun, etc.);

- cutting and grinding tools (saws, hacksaws, vibration grinder, angle grinder, etc.);

- machine tools and construction machines (concrete mixer, vibrating saw, parquet grinder, heat gun, etc.) It is impossible to guess in advance what will be in demand, so purchase at least one name for each tool. In the future, you will be able to focus on customer needs and bribe those tools that are in demand. You can purchase not only household tools, but also more professional equipment. Although it costs more, it lasts longer and can be leased to a construction team.

Pick up the staff of the rental point, namely: a specialist in the reception and issuance of tools and a tool repairman. The repairman will be required to monitor the performance of the tool, repair it. Take on this position the master of a wide profile, a person familiar with many tools. The specialist in the acceptance and issuance of the instrument will have to conclude a rental contract with customers, accept money. A repair technician can also combine this work. Some entrepreneurs advise taking an accountant and a lawyer to resolve disputes with non-return of the instrument. However, you can conduct these functions yourself, or you can contact these specialists one-time, without registering for the state.
