    Im moving into a place for a few weeks before i move away to the UK and need stuff like an iron, ironing board, kettle, cooking utensils etc

    I dont want to buy this stuff as i'll be moving to the UK and wont be able to bring it with me, is there anywhere in Dublin you can rent this stuff for a few weeks?

    Don't know of anywhere that rents stuff like that but most decent house/apartments that you rent should come fitted with this sort of stuff. Have you asked your landlord?

    If you look on gumtree or adverts.ie there are often people practically giving away this kind of stuff when they're moving away themselves.

    Cheers.

    But as the way is with these things when you actually want something theres nothing there for sale!

    I suggest you check a few secondhand shops.

    There's a for free section over on Adverts. You might be able to pick some stuff up over there.

    Yeah I can't imagine anywhere that would actually rent these things. You can get cheapo toasters, kettles etc fairly easy so there'd be no market for it.

    Best bet, as mentioned, look at freebie lists and failing that just shell out for the cheapest ones you can find. Sure you only need them for a few weeks so they should last that long.
