Step 1

Create a Free Account

Step 2

Add Your Tool

Click List a Tool and enter:

Tool name and category
Clear photos
Description and condition
What’s included (batteries, chargers, accessories)

Honest listings build trust and lead to more hires.

Step 3

Set Your Price & Availability

You choose:

Daily or weekly hire price
When the tool is available
Whether approval is required for bookings

You’re always in control — your tool, your rules.

Step 4

Choose Pickup (or Delivery)

Set a local pickup location that works for you.

If you offer delivery or drop-off, you can include that in your listing (optional).

Step 5

Publish & Start Earning

Once published, your tool becomes visible to locals searching on Prum.

When someone books, you’ll be notified and can communicate through the platform.

Step 6

Hand Over & Get Paid

Meet locally to hand over the tool, do a quick condition check, and confirm what’s included.

After the hire is completed, your earnings are processed through Prum.

What Makes a Great Listing?

Tools with great listings get hired more often.

Prum promotes a sustainable, cost-effective alternative to traditional rental companies. At its core, Prum is about locals helping locals – one tool at a time.
