Borrow useful items at affordable prices, saving space and money while sharing resources with communities across Teesside.
How it works
Step 1 - Choose a membership
Step 2 - Browse & reserve an item
Step 3 - Collect, Use & Return
Create an account online, choose and pay for your membership (from £5 per year). You then pay a small fee to rent out each item. Enjoy unlimited rental for the year.
Once you have paid your membership fee, you may browse the inventory. Click on the item you would like, if it’s available click ‘reserve’ and choose a date for collection.
Borrow an item for up to one week. Return it to us during our opening times. We also offer a drop off/collection service and can even help assemble and take down larger items.
Membership Types
Individual
£5 per year
Looking to hire out occasional items to use at home or going away for a couple of days? This membership is for you. Membership is £5 minimum per year (or you can donate more!), and you can rent as many times as you like.
Organisation
£30 per year
Do you run an organisation in Teesside that needs occasional items to run events, host meetings and kick start projects? Sharecycle has a range of items that can help and saves you having to buy rarely used items and avoids the headache of where to store equipment.
Activist/Charity Voluntary Donation
Are you an activist working with community groups and need occasional useful items to help do great work in the community? We are proud to offer a free membership for activists and small charities (or donate). We will require proof of charity status/evidence of activist work.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long can I borrow items for?
Items can be borrowed for up to 1 week. Need them longer? Either renew your item again through your online account or contact us.
What happens if I return items late?
Please avoid it if you can! We charge a late return fee per item. However don’t worry, if you know you can’t make it on time - just let us know.
Do you take donations of items?
Yes, depending on the item. We would love to expand our library of items and we need your help to do so! Get in touch with us to discuss if your item may be appropriate for the lending library.
