Rentalic
Rentalic, launched in March 2010 and based in San Mateo, California, is an online, rental marketplace that encourages collaborative consumption and efficient use of our resources by enabling individuals or businesses to easily and securily rent any good, service, or property; such as video games, cameras, lawn mowers, tents and even private driveways as temporary parking spots. Following the emerging trend of peer-to-peer renting, Rentalic offers a place for “people who need stuff” to connect with the “people who have stuff".〔 Rentalic's vision is to, "Help make the world a better place by building economically and environmentally sustainable communities",〔 through their mission to, "Help people save money, make money, and save the environment by encouraging reuse and sharing through person-to-person renting."〔
==How It Started==
"Punsri Abeywickrema (founder of Rentalic) needed a wheelbarrow to redo his backyard but he didn’t want to buy one for a one time use. The first weekend he worked on the yard, he borrowed a neighbor’s wheelbarrow. The second weekend, he felt bad asking to use it again, so he rented one from a local store. "I thought this might be a problem across society," he says. "There were many wheelbarrows in the vicinity just sitting idle, but that feel-bad factor prevents us from asking for favors." Abeywickrema has software experience from working at PayPal, LinkedIn, and online gaming company Zynga, so he created Rentalic.com."
