Our neighbors say it best
"I would recommend Neighbor without any qualifications. I can depend on them, I trust them, and I would recommend them to anyone."
Annette H. | Neighbor Host Since 2017
"It truly feels like your neighbor is just coming in and just dropping stuff off... I haven't had any concerns about people coming in and storing stuff."
Josh R. | Neighbor Host Since 2017
"I felt very comfortable trusting my space and my home to people who I knew were going to use it for their own personal benefit, but also help me in the long run as well."

House rules
Here's how you can ensure that your experience on Neighbor goes as smoothly as possible.
Always Communicate on Neighbor
Always use Neighbor’s mobile app or website to message your host or renter. Communicating through Neighbor’s platform ensures our support representatives can effectively support our users. Neighbor can only help resolve issues that occur within the platform.
Set expectations
In your listing or reservation, discuss your needs. Topics include frequency of access, restrictions, vacations, or anything else you think is important.
Always Pay on Neighbor
Never offer or accept payment outside the platform. Neighbor's automatic payments platform is built to provide safe transactions and prevent disputes.
Follow the Golden Rule
We believe the world could use more "love thy neighbor." The best experiences come by treating others, their property, and their time with kindness and respect.
