Rentshelf for baby gear rental
Baby gear rental software for Shopify
Rent prams, cots, high chairs and car seats to travelling families from your Shopify store. Parents book around their trip dates, choose delivery and tell you where to drop off.
The hard part
What makes baby gear rental hard to run on a normal store
Deliveries follow travel plans
Families want a cot at the holiday apartment when they land, and they need to tell you the address, arrival time and how to get in.
Every item is cleaned before it goes out again
Prams and car seats need cleaning and checks between families, so back-to-back bookings on the same day do not work.
Trips are a week or longer
Charging a flat daily rate for a two-week stay overprices the hire. Families expect weekly rates.
How Rentshelf handles it
Built into your Shopify product pages and admin
Each answer below uses a feature that exists in Rentshelf today. The label shows which plans include it.
Starter & Growth
Cleaning buffers between families
Add buffer days after each rental so the item is unavailable while it is cleaned and checked.
Packages on all plans · bundles on Starter & Growth
Weekly packages and bundles
Use tiered or fixed packages such as 3 days, 1 week or 2 weeks on every plan. On Starter and Growth, bundle a pram and car seat from component products so each item's stock is used.

FAQ
Baby gear rental questions
Can I deliver to hotels and holiday rentals?
Yes. Add a delivery method for it and turn on customer inputs so parents can give the address, arrival time and access notes. Rentshelf does not calculate delivery distance or fees automatically; add a delivery fee as an add-on.
Can I offer weekly rates?
Yes. Tiered pricing and fixed packages, such as 1 week or 2 weeks, are available on every plan.
How do I leave time for cleaning?
Add buffer days after each rental on Starter or Growth. The item is then unavailable for those days after the return date.
Can parents book a pram and car seat together?
They can add both to the cart, or on Starter and Growth you can create a bundle from component products so the package uses each item's stock.
How far ahead can families book for a holiday?
15 days ahead on Free, 90 days on Starter and 365 days on Growth.
