About DVD rental
Plenty of films never reach a streaming service, and plenty more vanish from one without warning. DVD rental on Rentoodle is the simple way round that: you borrow the disc from someone in the UK who still owns it, watch it, and post it back. Box sets, world cinema, documentaries, steelbooks and 3D discs all turn up.
Plenty of films never reach a streaming service, and plenty more vanish from one without warning. DVD rental on Rentoodle is the simple way round that: you borrow the disc from someone in the UK who still owns it, watch it, and post it back. Box sets, world cinema, documentaries, steelbooks and 3D discs all turn up.
It suits a weekend with a full series to get through, a film that only exists on disc, and the children's titles that get watched four times in a week. Discs are light and cheap to post, so most hires are done by tracked delivery, and a lender nearby may prefer to hand one over. Lenders keep 75% of each rental.
Most box sets are booked by the week, because owners set the price for longer periods and two days is only the default minimum. Hirers verify their identity before a first booking, and the Rentoodle Lender Guarantee covers each booking up to £30,000. A hire costs what the lender is asking, with no platform fee added.

DVD rental FAQs
How does DVD rental work on Rentoodle?
Choose the disc or set and the dates, then book. New hirers verify their identity once for £2 and pay nothing on top of the lender's price. Discs usually travel by tracked delivery, and some lenders offer local collection instead.
How long can I keep a box set?
As long as the lender's listing allows. The default minimum hire is two days, and longer periods are set and priced by the owner, so a full series is usually booked by the week. Message the lender if you need more time.
What if a disc is scratched or lost in the post?
Tell the lender promptly and keep the packaging. Hirers are responsible for items while they are in their possession and are liable for replacement, so post returns by a tracked service. Every booking is covered by the Lender Guarantee up to £30,000.
