Furniture rental is an increasingly popular option for both home and office use. Furniture rental allows the renter to easily set-up a new house, apartment or office with minimal initial cash outlays. Furniture rental also offers the benefit of allowing the renter to try a variety of styles to see what fits there needs, as well as possibly live with or use furniture that normally would be beyond their means.

Furniture rental may also offer significant tax advantages for businesses, although a tax professional should always be consulted ahead of time.

Most furniture rental services offer a wide variety of time options, ranging from weeks to years. Many also offer plans allowing you to purchase the furniture at the end of the rental agreement, often for a substantial discount from the original retail prices.

When comparing furniture rental services, be sure to be on the lookout for special or hidden charges. Although most furniture rental companies are up-front about their costs, some may try to include in other fees or penalties that could come back to haunt you later. As a result, it is generally recommended to cross-shop at least a handful of furniture rental services before deciding on the one that is right for you.
