Share tools with neighbors

List a lawn mower, ladder, or drill from your toolkit. Borrowers can post what they need and owners stay in control with clear approvals and responsibility reminders.

Responsibility pledge

Treat every tool with care. Communicate, return on time, and if you break it, work with the owner to make it right.
