Handbag Hire HQ is no longer operating, and its website no longer loads. It was a UK handbag rental service that launched in July 2007. Shoppers could borrow handbags and purses for a period of time instead of buying them. Services like this usually appealed to people who wanted to try a designer or occasion bag without paying the full retail price, or who liked to change their accessories often. We could not find any recent information about the company, so there is no sign that it plans to return. The details of how it worked are no longer available, including which brands it stocked, how long rentals lasted and what membership options it offered. Anyone interested in renting a handbag should look at other rental or subscription services that are currently trading and check their terms, insurance and damage policies before signing up. If you still have an account, deposit or open order with Handbag Hire HQ, keep any records you have, such as emails and bank statements. Your card provider or bank may be able to help with any money still owed to you. We have left this page up for reference only, and it is not a recommendation.
