BabyQuip is the leading baby gear rental service and marketplace, trusted by hundreds of thousands of families traveling across the US, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and beyond. With gear available in 2,000+ cities, we make family travel easier by delivering clean, safe, and insured baby gear right to your destination—whether it’s a vacation rental, hotel, or grandma’s house.

With over 385,000 reservations (and counting!), we know how to take care of traveling families. In fact, 62% of parents say renting baby gear from BabyQuip saved their vacation!

We rent a wide variety of baby, beach, and pet gear—including cribs, car seats, strollers, toys, pet crates, beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and even small appliances.

If you don’t see something on a Quality Provider’s rental site, just ask! They may be willing to add it for you.

Independent Quality Providers (or QPs for short) are independent business owners who rent, deliver, and set up baby, beach, pet gear, and more. They own the gear themselves and go above and beyond to keep it in top condition—clean, safe, and fully insured.

Many QPs are parents, grandparents, retirees, or side-hustling superstars who love helping families travel with less stress and more joy. And when you rent from a QP, you're also supporting a small business in the community you're visiting

Your gear is delivered by a local Quality Provider—a trusted, independent partner who owns and manages their own inventory. They handle delivery, setup (excluding car seats, safety gates, and other baby-proofing items), and pickup.

Quality Providers are local experts who know their communities well and take pride in making family travel easier and more comfortable.

Start with your Quality Provider—they’re your go-to for gear, delivery, and pickup questions. You’ll find their contact info in your confirmation email and BabyQuip account.

As early as possible! Cribs and other popular items can book up fast—especially during spring break, summer, and major holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. Booking early helps ensure you get the gear you need.

No. We require full payment when you book. We are holding your items for you and are not making the items you’ve reserved available to other potential customers.

We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, and Google Pay. We also accept BabyQuip Gift Cards.

Our full-size cribs are modern, sturdy, and made from real hardwood (though some Quality Providers may offer metal cribs—feel free to ask if you’d like to confirm). Each crib comes with a firm, high-quality mattress safe for infants and toddlers, plus clean linens including a mattress cover and a fitted sheet.

Log into your BabyQuip account to view or make changes (like adjusting dates, adding/removing items, or updating the delivery address).

Many changes are processed automatically, but some may require approval from your Quality Provider, especially if the request is made within 48 hours of your reservation start time. You’ll receive an email once your changes are confirmed or declined.

For last-minute or urgent updates, we recommend reaching out to your Quality Provider directly.

Modifications that result in a refund follow the cancellation policy.

Our QPs deliver to vacation rentals, hotels, private residences, airports—just about anywhere! We serve thousands of cities across the US, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, and beyond.

Delivery fees are set by each Quality Provider and depend on factors like distance and location. Each QP sets their own rates based on their service area.

There may be additional fees for same-day delivery, after-hours drop-offs, or holiday deliveries.

You'll see the delivery fee clearly listed before you complete your reservation—no surprises!

Delivery, setup (excluding car seats, safety gates, and other baby-proofing items), and pick up at the completion of a reservation are included. If a QP needs to return for any reason—like you want to add gear after the initial delivery—an additional trip fee will apply.

After you place your order, your Quality Provider (QP) will reach out to confirm the delivery details and make a plan that works for you.

QPs handle delivery, setup (except for car seats, safety gates, or other baby-proofing gear), and pickup. They’ll coordinate directly with you—or the delivery contact you listed in your reservation—to ensure everything runs smoothly.

It's rare, but if something is missing from your order, let your QP know right away. They'll make it right as quickly as possible.

Not necessarily! Contactless delivery, hotel drop-off, host coordination, or other custom arrangements can often be made. Your QP will work with you to find the best solution.

We count every calendar day you have the gear. For example, if you rent from Monday evening to the following Monday morning, that’s 8 days. We do not double book days because we need time to inspect and clean the items to our very high standards. 

Yes. As a general rule, we have a 3 day minimum rental period. However, Quality Providers can decide to offer one day rentals for certain situations, such as party rentals. If you are interested in a 1 or 2 day rental, please reach out to the Quality Provider to see if they can accommodate your request.

Yes! Discounts are automatically applied for longer rentals:

1–8 days: Standard daily rate
9–16 days: 10% off
17–24 days: 20% off
25+ days: 30% off

To help cover the costs of running BabyQuip, including processing fees, customer support, and our Trust and Safety program, we charge a service fee between 6% and 9% . The amount of this service fee is based on the reservation subtotal of rental and delivery charges (before other fees and taxes). The exact amount of the service fee is shown in your Order Summary at checkout. 

Yes! We require that all QPs meticulously clean all of their baby equipment. Babies' immune systems are still developing and we understand that you as parents or grandparents rightfully expect clean, sanitized products.

Items are inspected and cleaned after every pickup and inspected and cleaned again before the next delivery. We recommend that QPs use organic and/or non-toxic cleaners. Inquire with your QP for specific cleaning products used. You can read more about our cleaning and sanitizing standards here.

Yes, in the rare event that someone gets hurt, or their property is damaged during a covered rental, you may be protected with up to $1,000,000 USD in liability insurance. Insurance is an important differentiator between BabyQuip and other baby gear rental companies and is provided on all our rentals.

Contact your Quality Provider! You can also check the product manufacturer’s website for additional information and/or check YouTube for a video from the manufacturer. Instructions are always provided for car seats - either a manual or a link with installation instructions.

In the event that a piece of gear is damaged, lost or stolen during your reservation and the Quality Provider submits a request for Damage Protection (only applicable to reservations taking place in the US), you will be responsible for paying a $25 minor damage charge and we will cover additional accidental damage up to $1000. You are fully responsible for damages below $25 and over $1000. We know sometimes things happen and we want you to know we got you covered.

We expect normal use, but please return items in the condition you received them. Please do not allow any food or beverages in any equipment other than high chairs or booster chairs. Please do not allow smoking near any of the equipment, as fibers and plastics can absorb the odor. Items returned to us beyond the normal use of the time you had the gear including vomit, smoke or heavy staining may result in a $25/item cleaning fee or full replacement if needed. 

At BabyQuip, we offer a family-friendly cancellation policy that balances flexibility for customers with fairness to our Quality Providers.
