The Home Depot Rental Center at San Mateo

When you're beginning to make the leap into a major home improvement project, you might not have all the required tools in your workshop. Don't let that stop you when you can stop by The Home Depot San Mateo Tool Rental Center.

Tool Rental
Our tool rental options enlarge your toolbelt with the precise tools you require to complete a DIY job. It's not practical to buy a specific tool when you're not using it often. When you're considering a new tool, do a trial run before you decide which to get. Whatever your situation, we have the tools you're looking for.

Rent Nailers, Power Tools, Air Compressors, and More
Tackle serious jobs with serious power tool rentals and air compressors. Fix that leaky roof or put on a new one with nail gun rentals. Construct a new wall, shed, or house faster and more efficiently with construction nailers, hammer drills, and other tools that suit your project.

Make Painting Easier with Ladder and Paint Sprayer Rentals
Make the most of warmer weather to paint outdoors. Rent paint sprayers to get optimal coverage fast and make surfaces look new again. Rent scaffolding and ladders to reach high places when painting fences, houses, and sheds. We carry step ladders and extension ladders for medium or smaller jobs, so you won't have to wait when you're ready to get that job done.

Load 'N Go Trucks
To make it easier to transport large tool rentals, we keep flatbed trucks ready for rental. You're sure to find the right size for your DIY project so you can keep your job on track. As your trusted source for DIY projects, packing, and storage needs, it's simple to make us your go-to source for truck rental as well.

Whether you're searching for power tools like table saws or everyday tools like impact drivers, we've got you covered. We'll even rent you the vehicle to get it to your project site or home. Let us help you complete your home improvement project with the perfect tools and transit for the project.

How do I rent tools and trucks?

Stop by the Rental Center at your nearest Home Depot to see which tools or trucks you can rent. If you'd like confirmation before you drive there, call first to inquire about a truck or tool. You could also read our truck rental or tool rental pages to see if what you need is available at your store. For more details on renting tools, read our Tool Rental FAQs, including terms and conditions for the equipment.

Can I rent tools by the hour?

Tool rentals start at four hour time slots. Simply choose the length of time that suits you. Small DIY jobs may only require a rental that's a few hours long, and we can accommodate large projects as well. You've got options to rent tools by the week, month, or day, too. If you need it longer than what you signed up for, call your Rental Center for an extension and avoid late fees.

When do I bring the tools back?

You're welcome to return the tools early if you complete your project faster than planned, but on-time works, too. Just make sure to bring them back by the deadline listed on your rental paperwork. Please clean off residual dust, mud, and grime from the tool as well. If you need them longer, call your local rental center to see if you can extend your rental period.

Can I choose how long to rent a truck?

Rent a moving van or truck for as long as you need it. For short trips, 75 minutes could be plenty. Otherwise, consider renting it by the day or the week, depending on how long your project is. Remember to factor in the drive to and from the store, as you must bring it back to the same store where you rented it. Penske moving truck rentals allow one-way rentals as well as round-trip options, and they have different terms. Be sure to read the contract before you choose a truck.

Do I need to refuel the rental truck when I'm done?

Yes, please fill up the truck before you return it. Note the amount of gas in the tank when you receive the truck, and be sure to fill it with enough gas to match that level. If you don't, you'll be hit with a penalty known as the fuel replacement charge.

Do I just need a driver's license to rent a truck?

No, you must hold a valid driver's license and be over the age of 21. Depending on your state, you might require car insurance, as well as a deposit or credit card hold, too. We don't accept cash for Home Depot truck rentals, so please bring your credit card. Penske moving truck rentals have different requirements.
