Rental Policies

• You must have a current Outers Club membership in order to rent equipment. 

• Members may only rent one of each item; for example, one tent per member, one canoe per member, etc. 

• Reservations can be made in advance using our online rentle.io site. Reservations will be honoured to the limit of the Club abilities; please note that factors beyond the Club's control may affect the availability of reserved equipment. For example, the equipment may not have been returned on time by a previous renter.

• Please show up to the PAC 2010 equipment room during equipment room hours to pay for and pick up equipment. You must have a valid Athletics membership in order to tap in with your WatCard to access the PAC.

• No deposit is required, but members will be held responsible for paying the replacement cost of any equipment not returned. Equipment not returned will result in suspension from all UW facilities until equipment is returned or the replacement cost is covered. 

• Only equipment in good condition will be accepted for return. Equipment that is damaged beyond normal wear and tear must be repaired before return, or the cost of repair be covered prior to its return.

Equipment may be rented out during end-of-term breaks.

Members are requested to inform the rental volunteer what first-aid kit items have been used. There is no charge for consuming stock; this is so we can ensure the next person renting has a fully replenished kit for their safety.
