7 Handy Tips For Furniture Rentals And Hiring Furniture



Planning Your Furniture Rental

When you’ve decided to hire furniture, there’s a lot to consider. With form, functionality, features, size styling, budget and rental options to think about, there’s plenty of planning to do before you select your new furniture.



Will your new furniture function as expected? How long will you need it for - several months or several years? Will the cost of the furniture justify how often it is used?


Think about what exactly yourself and your family plan to get out of your new furniture set. For large families, choose furniture made from sturdy fabrics that are easy to clean and resistant to staining and spillages.

Also, consider choosing furniture that allows for modern developments, such as wall-mounted television sets, LED lighting and low-profile entertainment systems.



It’s a great idea to centre styling decisions around important items and features of your home, including:



• cherished photos;
• artwork;
• travel mementoes;
• memorabilia;
• vases and;
• feature walls.



Consider the colours and styles of these items. Remember, these products are timeless and likely to be passed down through generations - so build your furniture choices around them.



Will your new furniture fit in its dedicated space in your home? Make sure to take thorough measurements of the space you intend for your furniture to go, as well as the furniture itself. This is especially important for furniture pieces that will slot into dedicated spaces.

If you do make an incorrect measurement—never fear! With Mr Rental’s rent to own and rent to buy options, you can upgrade or swap out your furniture at any time for something that fits.

Consider using an online room planning tool such as FloorPlanner to plan our your layout - this way, you can be sure your furniture choices work well together and everything fits in place.

Will your new television, couch or entertainment system fit in with your overall design philosophy? Will the colour scheme gel well with your existing furniture? Will the patterns clash, or will they fit perfectly?

To save money, consider choosing timeless styles or neutral colours that will work well with the other furniture in your house, and won’t go out of style. You may end up wanting to rent to buy! Or if you decide you no longer enjoy the furniture you’ve chosen, with Mr Rental, you can swap out for something new and different at any time.

An online planner such as RoomSketcher will allow you to test your colour choices in 3D, so you can be sure you absolutely love each colour before you start physically painting.


Most importantly, choose a style that makes you feel good—you’ll be seeing it every day, after all!
