The Home Depot Rental Center at Ithaca

When you're preparing to dive into a major DIY job, you might not have all the required tools in your shed or garage. Don't let that stop you when you can stop by The Home Depot Ithaca Tool Rental Center.

Tool Rental
Our tool rental choices enlarge your toolbox and toolbelt with the exact tools you require to complete a DIY job. It's impractical to keep a specialized tool when you're rarely reaching for it. When you're searching for a new tool, try it out before you choose which to purchase. Whatever your situation, we have just what you're looking for.

Rent Floor Sanders, Shop Vacs, Post Hole Diggers, and More
Tackle major projects with robust power tool rentals. Take your scuffed wooden floor to the next level with a floor sander rental and a wet/dry vacuum to get the floors smooth and ready for refinishing. Construct a new fence around your property faster and more efficiently with a post hole digger rental, then utilize other concrete tools that suit the job at hand.

Make Painting Easier with Rental Scaffolding and Ladders
Make the most of warmer weather to paint outdoors. Rent paint sprayers to get optimal coverage fast and make surfaces look new again. Ladder rentals help you reach elevated locations when painting fences, houses, and sheds. We carry step ladders and extension ladders for small to medium jobs, so you won't have to wait when you're ready to get that job done.

Truck and Cargo Van Rentals
To meet your transport needs, we keep trucks of all kinds rental ready. Although availability varies by store, we've got a selection ranging from cargo vans to flatbeds to pickups. You're sure to find the correct size for your DIY project so you can keep your job on track. As your trusted source for DIY jobs of all sizes, it's easy to make us your source for truck rental as well.

Box Truck Rentals
When you need a 12-foot box truck for a small move, we've got just what you need. It's a great solution for cross-town moves. Use it for transporting extra belongings to a storage space as well. Get your truck, pack it full, then return it to that same store when you're done.

Penske Moving Trucks
You're comfortable doing your DIY projects with us. Do the same when it's time to move into a new condo, house, or apartment. We offer Penske moving trucks ranging from 12-foot to 26-foot lengths. Use our trucks to haul all your belongings — from a dorm to a city apartment to a 3-bedroom home.

Large Equipment Rentals
Handle expansive projects with the right pro equipment. Our large equipment rentals give you the power you need to finish the job. From the boom lifts to give you a boost to the mini skid steers capable of hauling materials on outdoor job sites, we've got a surprising variety of equipment available. If a large equipment rental could help you, explore and see what we've got in stock.

Although we're mentioning specific tool, truck, and large equipment rentals, not everything is available at every rental center. If you've got a particular item in mind, please contact your local rental center to see where you can pick it up.

Frequently Asked Questions about Rentals

How do I rent large equipment, tools, or trucks?

Stop by your local Rental Center to see what's available. If you want to be sure of what's in stock, call first to inquire about a truck, tool, or large equipment. You might also visit our tool and equipment rental or truck rental pages to see if what you need is at your local store. For more info on renting large equipment or tools, read these Tool Rental FAQs, including terms and conditions for the equipment.

Can I rent a tool or large equipment by the hour?

You can rent large equipment or tools for four hours or more. It depends on how long you'd like to rent them. Small home improvement projects may only require a rental for a few hours, and bigger jobs can also be accommodated. You've got options to rent large equipment and tools by the month, week, or day, too. If you need it longer than anticipated, call the Rental Center to arrange an extension and avoid late fees.

When do I return the tools?

It's fine to return the tools early if you finish your project ahead of schedule, 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 the tools 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 box truck, cargo van, or pickup truck for as long as you need it. For short trips, 75 minutes might be enough time. Otherwise, consider renting it by the day or the week, depending on how long your project is. Be sure to factor in the drive to and from the store, as you'll need to bring it back to the same store where you rented it. Penske moving truck rentals allow round-trip options as well as one-way options, and they have different terms. Be sure to read the documentation before you decide on a vehicle.

Do I need to refill the rental truck with gas?

Yes, please fill up the truck before you bring it back. Note the original fuel level 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.

Can I rent large equipment or a truck with only a driver's license?

No, you must hold a valid driver's license and be 21 or older. Depending on your state, you may require car insurance, as well as a credit card hold or a deposit, too. We don't accept cash for Home Depot truck rentals, so please bring your credit card. Penske moving truck rentals have different requirements, so read those if you plan to rent a Penske truck. Large equipment or select tools also require ID verification via CLEAR.

Do I need to pick up my rented large equipment?

Depending on your location, you may be able to get large equipment delivered and picked up from your job site for an affordable rate — whether that's at your home or out in the field. We'll need at least 24 hours notice so we can adequately prepare your rented equipment and you'll need to rent it for a full day. Speak to an associate for the best way to get your large equipment.

How do I avoid penalties and extra fees on my large equipment rentals?

Treat your rented large equipment as any other vehicle: Make sure it's parked legally and you obey traffic laws. Read the manual so you're using it correctly to avoid damaging the equipment or injuring yourself. Also, plan ahead to ensure the equipment is ready when you are. If you cancel within 12 hours of your scheduled delivery, you'll pay a cancellation fee. Extend your rental period if you need extra time so you won't get hit with a late fee.
