Home furniture rental: what you need to know

Everyone needs a home. But not everyone buys or owns a home. These days, more and more people tend to move around from one place to another. They take on a nomad-like lifestyle where they are constantly on the move for both personal and professional reasons. That is why a lot of people choose to rent a home for a given time, instead of buying one and settling down for years to come.  

If we think about this, it makes sense to actually take this “rent trend” one step further. If you’re a tenant and you decide to rent a home, it would be very convenient if you could also rent your household furniture. Well, In-Lease furniture rental company thinks exactly the same. Therefore, we offer a wide range of high-end rental furniture, appliances, and other household furniture for both individual and professional use. 

So, rental furniture: what is there to know? 

You can rent furniture as a private person or as a company. Temporary furniture hire is an especially interesting option for:

• Many professionals who regularly relocate, such as expats, diplomats or military personnel. 
• As a landlord of real estate, you want your tenants to be comfortable. You can fully furnish an empty property in an appropriate style and hereby increase your rental price. A fully furnished property always has an added value and will also attract tenants faster.
• As a landlord, you can also rent furniture for e.g. sales or rental styling; this allows you to show the potential and possibilities of a property by decorating it for viewings or permanently restyling the property for sale or rental.
• As a company you make sure that your (foreign) employees are well and comfortable. In this way, you can easily furnish a business flat or several units on a large scale and ensure that your employees for foreign projects are always comfortable during foreign projects.

Renting furniture is like renting any other item. It follows the standard rental principle where you pay a fee for a specific period during which the items concerned are made available to you. You can rent furniture for an apartment, flat or house. 

We offer fixed, flexible, and custom interior packages which include furniture, appliances, and other home accessories. You rent your furniture online, and before you know it, we deliver your package right at your doorstep at the start of your contract. Of course we come back to collect it when the contract expires so you do not have to deal with a large move or any related costs before and after.

Now, whereas renting furniture is like renting any other items, our furniture rental service is unlike any other renting experience at all. That is because all of our rental formulas are based on the principle of flexibility.

Contract extension

If you sign a rental contract for a given period and afterwards need or want an extension for a relatively short period, your contract will be automatically extended on a weekly or monthly basis. If you want your contract extended for a considerably longer period, we will revise your contract entirely and (re)calculate a reduced monthly rental fee based on the length of the extension. The specific terms for a short and long contract extension differ based on the initial length of the contract.

Contract shortening

At in-Lease, we also like to be flexible in our approach because we do not want to chain our clients to fixed contracts. That is why as a client you can also shorten or completely terminate your contract prematurely. If you want to shorten the rental period, we calculate a new fee on a weekly or monthly basis, based on your formula and the period shortened.

Wondering where to rent furniture? At In-Lease, we have solutions for both short as long term furniture rental. For example, you can rent your furniture for just a few weeks awaiting your final furniture to arrive. If you want to rent furniture for a longer period of time, In-Lease has different lines of furniture to suit your style. You simply choose the furniture via our rental shop, put together your own interior. We will guide you through the entire process.

Of course, as a private person you also want to know what the renting furniture costs are and whether it really is better than buying new furniture. The price that you pay In-Lease for your rental furniture depends on several factors. For example, you will pay a lower price for a standard all-in furniture package from our TEMP formula than for the furniture from our RENT or PLUS formula. With these last two packages you have the advantage that you can select your furniture yourself from more than 50 brands. Moreover, the interior that you rent in the PLUS formula consists exclusively of new furniture and appliances. If you have decided to rent furniture temporary, we always make a transparent price offer, so that you know what costs are involved in renting furniture. You can also easily download our price list.

Are rented items always cleaned & tested and of good quality?

In-Lease stands for quality furniture rental. Everything we rent is delivered in good condition and has been thoroughly and professionally cleaned. Duvets, pillows and linens are sent out to a professional laundry for cleaning. Our dish sets are cleaned in the professional dishwasher; furniture is checked over thoroughly, repaired where needed and cleaned; electrical appliances are tested and cleaned.
