The Home Depot Rental Center at South Loop

When you're ready to kick off your next DIY project with confidence, you want the correct tools for the job. In many cases, The Home Depot Tool and Truck Rental Center can help you fill in the gaps in your toolbox and garage. We're known for high-quality power tool and moving truck rentals.

Tool Rental
Start your next DIY project with confidence and the right tools for the job. Let The Home Depot Chicago Tool Rental Center fill in the gaps in your toolbox with the tools you don't have at home. Rent the tools you need and bring them back when you're done. In fact, if you found the tools so useful that you didn't want to return them, we have used tools available for purchase. The retired rental tools are discounted compared to the new items in our aisles.

Make Painting Easier with Ladder and Paint Sprayer Rentals
Beautiful spring days are the perfect time to take on outdoor painting projects. Make surfaces look new again with a fresh coat of paint. Whether you need rental ladders for painting fences, rental scaffolding for painting a shed or home, or a rental paint sprayer for professional coverage, we have what you need.

A Comfortable Workspace is a Productive One
Beat the summer heat by prepping early. Plan ahead to keep your workspace refreshingly cool so you can get more done. We offer generators to run rental air conditioners, fans, and all your large power tools.

Truck Rental
To make it easier to transport large tool rentals, we keep pickup trucks and Penske moving trucks on hand, with availability varying by store. You're sure to find the right size truck rental for your project so you can keep your timeline running smoothly. As your trusted source for DIY projects, packing, and storage needs, it's easy to make us your go-to source for moving and transport, too.

Box Truck Rentals
When you need a 12-foot box truck for a small move, we've got just what you need. Our rental box trucks are a terrific solution for cross-town moves. Use it for transporting extra belongings to a storage space as well. Get your truck, pack it full, then bring it back to that same store when you're done.

Penske Moving Trucks
You're confident completing your DIY projects with The Home Depot. Do the same when it's time to move to a new space. We have Penske moving trucks ranging from 12-foot to 26-foot lengths. Use our trucks to haul all your belongings, from everything in a college dorm or small apartment to the contents of a 5-bedroom house.

Frequently Asked Questions about Rentals

How do I rent a tool or a truck?

Stop by your local Rental Center to see what's available. If you'd like to be sure of what's in stock, call first to inquire about a tool or truck. You may also check out our tool and equipment rental or truck rental pages to see if what you need is offered at your local store. For more information on renting tools, read these Tool Rental FAQs, including equipment terms and conditions. Larger tools, such as jackhammers, and all truck rentals require CLEAR verification.

Can I rent a truck for a few hours?

Rent a truck or cargo van for as long as you need it. For short trips, 75 minutes might be plenty. Otherwise, consider renting it by the week or the day, depending on the length of your project. Don't forget to factor in the drive between the job site and the store, as you'll need to return it to the same store you rented it from. Penske moving truck rentals allow one-way rentals as well as round-trip options, and they have different terms. Make sure to review the documentation before choosing your truck.

When do I need to return the tools?

You can return the tools early if you finish your project ahead of schedule, but on time works, too. As long as you return it by the deadline you were given when you rented it, you'll be good to go. Please clean any built-up dirt from the tool as well. If you need them longer, give the rental center a call to see if you can extend your rental period.

Do saw rentals come with saw blades?

Yes, power saw rentals generally come with blades, but we do recommend that you buy your own. Your rental likely won't come with a new blade. However, you may luck out and have a sharpened blade on the saw. Since there's no guarantee, it's better to purchase a suitable blade, just in case you need it.

Should I refill the rental truck before I bring it back?

Yes, please fuel up the truck before you bring it back. Note the original fuel level when you receive the truck, and be sure to fill it with enough gas to match that same level. If you don't, you have to pay a penalty known as the fuel replacement charge.

Can I rent a truck with only a driver's license?

No, you must hold a valid driver's license and be 21 or older. Be ready for CLEAR verification with the requisite selfie. Depending on your state, you may require car insurance, as well as a deposit or credit card hold, too. Please bring your credit card for Home Depot truck rentals, as we don't accept cash. Penske moving truck rentals have different requirements, so read those if you plan to rent a Penske truck.
