Rent a air mattress from a neighbor near you

Holiday guests need a bed for three nights, and an air mattress is a closet-filler the other 362. Borrow a queen with the built-in pump from a neighbor.

What it costs to rent a air mattress

Rental counters typically charge about $8 to $20 a day for a air mattress, plus a damage waiver and tax. On Rentsome, neighbors set their own daily rate, and it is usually lower because they are not running a store. Every booking adds a 15% service fee (minimum $2) and sales tax, both shown before you confirm. A refundable security deposit is held on your card, never charged, and released 72 hours after you return it.

A new air mattress runs roughly $40 to $200. At about $14 a day, renting stays cheaper until you have used it around 9 days in total, before counting storage, maintenance and the resale value you never get back.

Renting a air mattress: common questions

How does the security deposit work?

It is a hold on your card sized to the item’s declared value, never a charge. It releases automatically 72 hours after you return the item, unless the owner files a damage claim within that window.
