Founded in November 2022, WEquip is a peer-to-peer rental marketplace where renters can go to search for items they need that their neighbors might have. Owners can list their items for rent and make extra cash along the way, while renters can access items they need, all in one place!
WEquip was founded on the hope that our community at large has something to offer one another and thus create a more sustainable future. WEquip therefore is a community-run marketplace as evidenced by the company's name: WE will all work to EQUIP each other with whatever we may need, advancing our goals together.

WEquip was founded in November of 2022 by Paige and Adam Miesle. The husband and wife duo launched WEquip with the hopes of connecting a larger community to enable a less wasteful lifestyle for everyone who uses the platform.
Paige has a technical background in mechanical engineering and is currently finishing her MBA. She always loves a challenge and isn't afraid of hard work. She knows that WEquip will make her life easier, as well as the lives of her family and friends, and can't wait to share it with you!
Adam is an electrical engineer. He enjoys running outdoors and all things technology. Running WEquip will be an adventure as well as an opportunity to put some skills he's gained to the test. He is super passionate about helping others and knows WEquip will be both helpful and good for the planet!

Our rental platform will include a messaging feature where renters can chat with owners, deciding on the best place for pickup/drop-off. It can be at the owner's home, the renter's home, or a public place - whatever makes you feel most comfortable!
We here at WEquip have high hopes and expectations, but we know real life is messy and accidents happen. While we can't provide the specifics yet, we will have insurance in place to cover your item in the event that something happens!
With a credit card! WEquip utilizes Stripe, a secure payment processing platform, to process all charges.
It uses the letters from the "quip" portion of our name to form a smiling face, portraying WEquip's welcoming and happy culture.
We are planning to launch in late spring or early summer of 2023! Can't wait?! Send us your info via the "Contact Us" page to join before the site goes public!
While the listing price is entirely up to you, you will bring home 75% of that! The other 25% will go to WEquip to cover overhead and administrative costs, as well as your item liability insurance.
