The Loaner has 24 hours to confirm or decline a rental request.
Make sure you upload images of the item and describe it honestly and in detail. It is best to be transparent from the start.
We are constantly updating our system and keeping our eyes out for new cool items to list. If you feel we are missing a category or subcategory please feel free to email support@loanhood.com This platform is for you!
Please contact support@loanhood.com and we will assist you.
If we find anything unexpected or not meeting the standards of our Loaner criteria then the LoanHood team has the right of refusal over any uploaded content. Reasons may include: Listings with profanities in the description or title Any slandering of other users or threatening messaging Direct contact information for the Loaner Inappropriate content – Keep it clean, no drugs, knives or nudity Content that may be detected as spam Links to other sites where the item can be purchased or loaned
Every item uploaded to the platform is checked by the LoanHood team and can take up to 48 hours to approve
An item returned up to 24 hours late will be charged 50% of the weekly rental price. An item returned more than 24 hours late will be charged for an additional week. The Loaner has the right to waive this but you are under no obligation to do so.
The Borrower is responsible for returning the item to you. We will send the Borrower an email before the rental period is over to remind them to send the item back in time.
When you upload an item you will have the option to select your delivery preferences 'In Person Pick Up / Drop Off' or 'Courier / Royal Mail'. Unlike a retail platform where there is a flat rate for delivery bear in mind delivery costs will vary depending on size and weight. Head to the website of your chosen delivery method for some guidance on pricing.
Currently we are accepting clothing, accessories and footwear of all brands, including vintage.
If your item is returned to you damaged in any way please take a picture straight away so that it is time stamped on your phone and contact your Borrower to try and resolve the problem. You may be asked to provide photos of your item taken before it was shipped to support your claim that any damage was caused by the Borrower (and was not present at the start of the hire period). If an item is damaged beyond repair and needs to be replaced the Borrower will be charged the RRP of the item unless you can source the item and replace it within 7 days. Alternatively, if you have signed up to SuperHog you can claim via your lenders guarantee, contacting them directly at www.superhog.com.
We always recommend getting proof of postage. If more than 7 days have passed since the agreed return date of an item, it is classed as a ‘non-return’ and the Borrower will be charged the RRP of the item. However, sometimes life happens, flights are missed, babies come early and natural disasters occur so we encourage you to resolve this issue between Loaner and Borrower . If it does escalate we will try and help solve the issue, providing there is proof of postage. LoanHood cannot take responsibility nor reimburse for lost items as this is a third party service we have no control over. Alternatively, if you have signed up to SuperHog you can claim via your lenders guarantee, contacting them directly at www.superhog.com
We do not accept clothes with damage or heavily stained but encourage you to repair your items and breathe new life into them. Check out our buddies The Seam or find a local seamstress/tailor for repairs or see our cleaning guide for help with stains. If the damage is not noticeable please make sure to let your Borrower know in the item description and be as transparent as possible. Trust us, this will stop any awkward moments and keep your feedback positive.
The Borrower has your item(s) until the very last day of the rental period. If they have rented an item for one week, it’s theirs to wear from day 1 to day 7. It needs to be back in your hands on day 8 ready for you to wash and wear again. The aim of the game is to get it back to you on day 8.
The item must arrive with the Borrower on the first day of the rental. For example, if they have selected dates September 1-7, you will need to either organise to meet on Monday 1st or will have mailed the item to arrive on Monday 1st September. We recommend recorded delivery to ensure the item is tracked and signed for or at the very least proof of postage which is free.
From 7 days at a time.
Unlike a retail platform where there is a flat rate for delivery bear in mind delivery costs will vary depending on size and weight. Head to the website of your chosen delivery method for some guidance on pricing.
This is decided by you when you upload your item and enter the Recommended Retail Price (RRP) or combined price if uploading a Look. We suggest renting your individual items for 20% of the retail price but this can also depend on a number of variables such as brand, condition, style, demand for the item and even personal value needs to be considered. For bags and accessories we recommend around 5-10% as there is unlikely to be any cleaning involved.
Joining, creating an account and listing an item on LoanHood is free. However, a fee for each loan will be added to each transaction. This will means you get 85% of the rental price.
The Loaner is the person who OWNS the item(s) and rents to the Borrower for a limited amount of time. Remember, you’re not a-Loan (sorry, terrible pun)
Either party can cancel a rental. If cancelled more than 48 hours prior to the rental is due to commence you will not be charged. A cancellation made within 48 hours of the rental commencement date will not be reimbursed. Cancelling last minute means a Borrower could get stuck without an outfit for a special occasion, on the flip side it makes it difficult for the Loaner to book an item out with other Borrowers.
If the item is delivered in person this won’t be an issue. If you are using a delivery service or Royal Mail please check that they deliver on these days. If your item is going to arrive late please contact your Loaner immediately to find a resolution. Please see late fee charges here.
Please make your Loaner aware if your item will be returned late (if you missed the post, the roads are closed or the central line is down again) and try to rectify the situation. An item returned up to 24 hours late will be charged 50% of the weekly rental price. An item returned more than 24 hours late will be charged for an additional week. The Loaner has the right to waive this but they are under no obligation to do so.
We recommend meeting in person to save on delivery costs and emissions. Otherwise the Loaner bares the cost of delivery the Borrower of return.
The Loaner (the person who owns the clothes) is responsible for the cleaning of the clothes once the Borrower (person renting the clothes) has returned the item(s). For Loaners, this means if you are going to dry clean the item on return make sure you add this as an additional cost when listing your item. We have a number of eco friendly cleaning partners that you can find on our site in our User Guides. All items sent out should be clean, pressed and ready to wear.
We are committed to making sure LoanHood is the safe way to share wardrobes within our community. Our verification process is there to safeguard you and other users. Once you upload or rent an item you will be taken through the Stripe verification process which requires government certified identification such as drivers license or passport.
At LoanHood we aim to prolong the life of garments and save every item from landfill. Extending their life even by nine extra months can reduce carbon, water and waste footprints by around 4-10% each. This is great news but what do we do with the items once they are past their best and unrentable. Find your local textile recycling bank or head to Love Your Clothes for more advice. Don't bin it… recycle or repurpose!

Once the booking has been made and transactions approved, you may well wish to exchange phone numbers to help facilitate delivery or returns, and it’s cool we get that. That said, we highly recommend all enquiries and arrangements are made via the LoanHood platform so that in the unlikely event of a dispute we can help facilitate a resolution.

Any insurance or user protection will be void and your account may be terminated. You can report any issues directly to support@loanhood.com.
We host a number of events throughout the year so that Loaners and Borrowers can meet and have try-on sessions. However, if you’re looking for something for a special occasion like a wedding why not DM the Loaner and see if they’re happy for you to come and try their item.
Either party can cancel a rental. If cancelled more than 48 hours prior to the rental is due to commence you will not be charged.

You have your item(s) until the very last day of your rental period. If you have rented an item for one week, it’s yours to wear from day 1 to day 7. It needs to be back in the Loaners hands on day 8 ready for them to wash and wear again. If your chosen return method takes longer than 24 hours you will need to send it back before day 7 of your rental period. The aim of the game is to get it back to the Loaner on day 8. We’ll send you a friendly reminder towards the end of your rental period.
This will depend on your bank but you should receive the payment back to your bank account in 5-10 business days. If you have any issues please send us an email at support@loanhood.com
Once you click Send Request the item is then pending in your profile under Borrower View. You can edit the rental dates up to 48 hours before the rental commences.
This will be specified by the Loaner on the listing. If you are still unsure then you can message the Loaner via the chat

We understand that accidents happen, including staining and minor damage of items from time to time. If this occurs during your hire, you must contact the lender immediately to arrange a resolution. You will be charged for any specialist dry-cleaning or repairs necessary. If an item is damaged beyond repair and needs to be replaced by you, the Borrower will be charged the RRP of the item unless you can source the item and replace it within 7 days.
As per our payment provider Stripes policy, the payment is initiated once the item is booked i.e. requested from the Loaner and payment information has been added and submitted. It will then be pending in Stripe until the order is confirmed and is paid to the Loaner once the item is received at the borrower side.
Unfortunately, we don’t offer refunds for bad fit so please make sure you read the description carefully and feel free to message the Loaner any queries you may have ahead of requesting the item. If it doesn't fit as you had imagined, is there a way to style it out? How did other Borrowers style this item? Check out our instagram for inspo and style tips. Other tips for a great fit; ask the Loaner how the item fits them, cross reference with the size guide provided by the brand, check the reviews posted by other Borrowers.
A fee for each loan is included in the price shown. This will be 15% of the rental price, which will go towards the upkeep of the LoanHood platform and to ensure things are running smoothly and efficiently for you.
The Borrower rents the item(s) from Loaner - the person who owns the item(s) for a limited amount of time. As a Borrower you are renting someone else’s clothes, so please treat them as your own and return ready to wash and wear again.
