Renting baby equipment

Hi there I am thinking of renting a pushchair and some of the other main baby equipment as I don't really want to buy this stuff, does anyone know where I can do that?

Hey, I bet you could buy second hand just as cheaply as renting! Maybe even cheaper l, Can get some great second hand things on eBay and Facebook market place, just make sure they're safe and you can wash them first.

I agree with the previous post - buying second hand is likely to be cheaper than renting.

Facebook marketplace is your friend here. Moses basket/crib/travel cot could be anything from £5 upwards. A buggy/pram could be anything from £30 ish. Bundles of clothes etc all available really cheaply.

I don't have any experience of rental companies, but I can't imagine they could turn a profit renting out more cheaply than Marketplace prices; particularly since they'd have to clean/maintain it all to ensure total safety, whereas on Market place the two sets of parents would make that judgement call to sell/buy etc.
