Hire camping gear anywhere in Australia
Four Swags is Australia's marketplace for hiring camping and outdoor gear from locals. Tents, swags, camp kitchens, fridges, gazebos, kayaks, SUPs, surfboards, bikes, snow gear, camper trailers and caravans, from people near you or along the road to where you're going.
Why buy gear you'll use a few weekends a year? Hire it for the trip, hand it back after, and skip the storage. Owners set their own prices, longer hires usually cost less per day, and every hire has a bond and damage protection.
From local owners
Owners around Australia are listing their gear now, ahead of hiring opening in mid to late November 2026. Search near you, or list your own gear and earn from it.
How Four Swags works
1. Find it near you
Search by where you are or where you're going. Every listing shows real photos, the owner's reviews and the price per day.
2. Book and pick up
Pay securely online. Every hire has a bond and damage protection, and every renter is ID-checked.
3. Camp, then hand it back
Use it for the trip, return it as you got it, and leave a review. Longer hires usually cost less per day.
How to get the best hire
- Search where you live, or along the route to your trip, and pick up on the way.
- Book early for school holidays and long weekends: camper trailers, fridges and big tents go first.
- Kits from one owner (tent, kitchen, chairs and lights) usually cost less than hiring each item separately.
