Overview
Gear Grab is a hire shop on Waiheke, we have a wide range of everyday gear. We are always upgrading and adding awesome new items to our stock.
It is our brand new business that opened in May 2024. Created by me (Jordan) and my husband (Justin). Being locals we know the struggle when you are unable to do everyday tasks without having to wait for delivery of items. Our shop was created for locals and tourists that only need to use the item once or to bring extra fun to Waiheke.
Gear grab started as an idea by my husband and then eventually became a reality.
Our store consists of party, gaming, outdoors, household, tech and more.
Hire prices are unbeatable and affordable for everyone.
It is 18+ to hire and license required. We are also open 6 days a week, Closed Tuesday. But we have 7 day returns available, just ask in the shop 🙂
If you are on the island for a holiday or just needing to get your property in order Gear grab is the place to go.
