Rentals on ShareGrid automatically close 48 hours after the scheduled end date to help ensure timely payments. However, if there are unresolved issues—such as missing gear, a late return, or billing discrepancies—you can still take action. This article explains how to handle these situations and when to contact ShareGrid Support.

Can a Closed Rental Be Reopened?

In most cases, yes. ShareGrid Support can reopen a rental even after it’s been auto-closed. This helps the platform resolve disputes, adjust charges, or document ongoing issues.

What to Do if Your Rental Was Auto-Closed with Unresolved Issues

  1. Gather Key Details
    Prepare your rental ID, dates, and a clear description of the issue.

  2. Contact ShareGrid Support
    Submit a request via the Contact Page and explain the situation.

  3. Request a Reopen
    Let the team know why the rental needs to be reopened—e.g., missing items, late return, or payment issues. If needed, support will reopen and adjust the rental as needed.

Common Scenarios and What to Expect

1. Missing or Late-Returned Equipment

  • Even if the rental is marked as completed, ShareGrid can note the issue and update the rental in the backend.

  • Promptly contacting support allows accurate documentation and may impact fees, claims, or follow-up communications.

2. Damage, Theft, or Disputes

  • These issues can still be resolved after closure.

  • ShareGrid’s support process is independent of rental status—so don’t worry if the rental is marked complete.

Key Reminders

  • Rentals auto-close 48 hours after the end date.

  • Auto-closure does not prevent issue resolution.

  • Always contact ShareGrid Support promptly to report unresolved problems.
