Tent hire from local owners
Hire a tent from a local for your next camping trip instead of buying one that lives in the shed. Family tents, quick-pitch touring tents and big canvas tents, picked up near home and back after the weekend.
From local owners
Owners are listing tents now, ready for hire from mid to late November 2026. Search near you to see what's up, or list yours 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.
Tips for hiring tents
- Check the sleeping number: a 6-person tent sleeps 4 adults comfortably with bags inside.
- Ask the owner for a quick pitch demo at pick-up, or practise once in the backyard.
- Canvas tents are cooler in summer and warmer in winter, but heavier to carry.
Common questions
How much does tent hire cost?
Owners set their own prices. Each listing shows the daily rate, and longer hires usually cost less per day.
Do I need to clean the tent before I return it?
Return it as you got it: dry, swept out and packed. If it got wet on the last morning, tell the owner so it can be aired.
Got gear sitting in the shed?
