That's an evem better point. Why doesn't Home Depot do tool rental delivery & pickup via gig work?

  I’m not sure about the “via gig work” portion of it, but they do in fact do tool rental delivery and pickup. I rented a Dingo last month (a small digging and leveling machine that you ride behind on a platform) and this was provided as an option. It was not really clear when I looked whether HD employees took it or whether they subcontracted the service out using something like gig work. IIRC the fee was $100 USD each way. That was prohibitively expensive for me and was nearly the price of the 24h rental itself which was around $280 if I remember correctly. I fortunately own a truck with a hitch (the Dingo came with its own flatbed trailer) but I could theoretically see it as an option for those who didn’t own one. Though at that price you might as well pay the $300 to $400 or so to have a hitch installed on your car instead provided you own one that could tow the Dingo (which most cars could, it’s pretty light).
