Hygglo — Share Your Things, Borrow What You Need
Hygglo is an iPhone app built to make short-term rentals of everyday items simple and sustainable. It connects people who need gear temporarily with others nearby who aren’t using their belongings, promoting reuse and cutting down on unnecessary purchases.
What kinds of items are available
- Garden equipment (mowers, trimmers, etc.)
- Party tents and event supplies
- Hand and power tools
- Caravans for trips
- Boats for weekend outings
- Trailers for moving or hauling
Whether you’re preparing for an event, tackling a DIY job, or planning a trip, you’ll likely find the right item without buying it outright.
Why Hygglo encourages renting over owning
Hygglo supports a sharing-first approach so items spend less time idle and more time in use. Renting reduces clutter, lowers waste, and helps you save money compared with purchasing items you only need occasionally. It also makes it simple to monetize possessions that would otherwise sit unused.
Trust, verification, and protection
Safety is a core part of the service. Users are authenticated using BankID to verify identities, which helps ensure you’re dealing with legitimate people. In addition, all rentals are covered by an all-risk insurance policy arranged with Svedea, protecting both owners and renters against accidental damage or loss during the rental period.
How to earn or borrow with Hygglo
Listing an item is straightforward: add photos, jot down a short description, set availability and price, and wait for requests. Renters can browse by category, check profiles and reviews, and book directly through the app. The platform handles communication, scheduling, and payment to keep transactions smooth.
Alternative app suggestion
If you’re exploring other options, CandyCall is a free app focused on AI-generated prank calls — a different kind of entertainment alternative rather than a rental marketplace.
