Equipment and Bike Rental
Outdoor Equipment and Bike Rental Overview
Elon Outdoors rents a variety of outdoor equipment for short-term usage. Bikes are also available to be rented for a semester or academic year. To request outdoor equipment or a bike rental, you must use the rental request forms below. Once your request is submitted and approved, you will be contacted with any additional details regarding your reservation. Requests must be made at least 2 days in advance for outdoor equipment.
All equipment is picked up at the ELOA office (Koury Athletic Center 106). Payment is due when equipment is picked up and can be made via credit card (debit not accepted).
Equipment will be inspected upon checkout and check-in. Staff will assess damage/replacement fees based on the condition at check-in. Late fees will be assessed for any equipment returned after the time specified on the rental request. Late fees are $10 per day, per piece of equipment.
Rental bikes will become available for the Spring 2025 semester beginning Thursday, January 30th at the ELOA office (First come first serve while supply last).
*ELOA does not work on privately owned bike. Requests for personal bike repairs should contact a local private bicycle repair company.
