Equipment rental

Equipment Rental Software Built Around the Unit, Not the Category

If your hire stock is serialised and valuable, you need to know which unit went out, who has it, what condition it left in, and what it has earned. Music Shop Suite tracks hires at the unit level and keeps the agreement, deposit, and return condition on the same record.

  • Every hire tied to a specific serial number
  • Agreements with term, rate, deposit, and damage terms
  • Condition photos captured at issue and at return
  • Live on-hire board with due dates and overdue days
  • Earnings and utilisation per unit and per category

Utilisation tells you what to buy next

Revenue per unit and days-on-hire show which items pay for themselves and which are dead capital. Buy the third of what is always out rather than another of what never leaves.

  • Days on hire and revenue per unit
  • Idle stock highlighted by category
  • Maintenance cost set against earnings

Returns are an inspection, not a shrug

Compare the return against the issue photographs, record damage, and apply or refund the deposit with the reason attached — so the next conversation is short.

Maintenance without losing the unit

Send a returned item straight to the bench as a work order. It shows as unavailable rather than quietly disappearing off the hire board.

Overdue chasing that is factual

A list with hirer, contact details, days overdue, and balance turns an awkward call into an admin task.

See the workbench before you sign up

Inventory, pricing, lesson bookings, and instrument lending all live in the same back-office dashboard — no separate apps, no re-keying between them.

Instrument lendingLoans and rentals by unit: who has it, when it is due, what deposit is held, and which agreements are overdue.
Music shop inventory dashboard listing instruments with SKU, serial number, condition, cost, price and status
