Home >>> F.A.Q.

What kind of toys do you have?

There are over 3000 fabulous toys to select from including baby toys, puzzles, games, construction sets, train sets, cooking, bath toys, musical toys, trucks, all the Fisher Price play sets and the full range of Little Tikes toys.

How much does it cost?

To use our services you pay a once-off joining fee of $27.50 and then simply pay per toy per week. After the first week, the rental is calculated on a daily basis.

How long can I borrow the toys for?

Minimum of one week. We suggest a maximum of 3-4 weeks.

What else do you have available?

We also stock an extensive range of reference books in our "Book Nook". These are available for members to borrow. We can also provide cake tins, cake decorations, tables and chairs for your child's next birthday party. Our dressups section has an extensive range of costumes available for hire.

Our "retail section" at the back of the library has a great range of gifts. Members will automatically receive a discount off most purchases. Layby facilities are available. We also offer free gift wrapping for your gifts.

Where are you?

We are located at "York's Corner" Lane Cove on Sydney's lower North Shore. We are in a small group of shops away from the main shopping centre so parking is easy. There is a lovely park next door so why not pack some morning tea or lunch and relax there before or after your visit to the Toy Library. View a map showing our location here.

How do I transport bulky toys?

95 per cent are transportable in cars, station wagons, utes and trailers to make it economical for your hiring. We do have a limited delivery service available (charges apply).

Do I need to book ahead?

Some of our larger play equipment is very popular so we recommend you book in advance for your party, playgroup function or corporate function. Items must be collected on the day nominated by you. A cancellation fee will be charged for toys not taken after we have reconfirmed your booking.

When are you open?

We are open from 9.30am to 3.00pm Monday to Friday. On Saturdays we are open from 9.00am to 1.00pm.

How does your referral system work?

You can nominate friends to join Lane Cove Toy Library at a saving of $10.00. For every referral we receive from you, we will give you a $10.00 credit for toy hire.
