Difference Between Hire and Rent
June 9, 2011 Posted by koshal
Hire vs Rent
Though people seem to use hire and rent alternatively, there actually exists a difference between hire and rent. It is interesting to note that both the words have two different meanings, namely, ‘to pay for the use of something’ and ‘to sell the use of something’. When we consider the words, hire and rent, both of them are used as verbs as well as nouns in the English language. The word hire has its origin in the Old English word hȳrian. On the other hand, rent has its origins in the Middle English. Even phrases such as for hire and for rent are used in the English language.
What does Rent mean?
These two words are used with difference in the sense that the word rent is normally used in situations involving a longer period of time as in the expressions ‘renting a house’, ‘rent a flat’, ‘rent a TV’ and the like. All these expressions involve a long period. Look at the two sentences given below.
How much would it cost me to rent a two-bedroom house?
How much would I need to rent an apartment in the city?
In the first sentence, you can see that the word rent is used in a situation that needs a long duration of time. In the second sentence also the word rent is used in a situation that needs a long duration of time. You do not rent an apartment or a two-bedroom house just for a few hours.
It is interesting to note that in American English the two words are interchanged. In short, it can be said that the word rent is used in situations that need both long and short duration of time. You often hear of the expression ‘rent a car’ in American English.
What does Hire mean?
On the other hand, the word hire is used in situations that need a shorter period as in the expressions such as ‘hiring a bike’, ‘hire a cycle’ and the like. These expressions involve a short period. You normally hire a bicycle for a few hours only. Observe the sentences given below as examples.
He hires a bicycle daily to go to his office.
She hired a car to go her friend’s funeral.
In the first sentence, you can see that the word hire is used in a situation that needs a short duration of time. In the second sentence also you can see that the word hire is used in a situation that needs a short duration of time. One does not hire a bicycle or a car for a long period like an apartment.
What is the difference between Hire and Rent?
• Both the words, hire and rent, have two different meanings, namely, ‘to pay for the use of something’ and ‘to sell the use of something’.
• The word rent is normally used in situations involving a longer period.
• On the other hand, the word hire is used in situations that need a shorter period. This is the major difference between the two words, namely, hire and rent.
• It is interesting to note that in American English the two words are interchanged.
These are the differences between rent and hire.

@LeeLinh99 they are similar
“I want to rent out that apartment”
“I want to hire that car so that I can drive”
But rent can also be a noun
“Have you payed your monthly rent?”

What’s the difference between «rent» and «hire» in British and American English?
The tip I used to teach was the verb, hire, should be used for things which are transportable hence, you hire a car, sports equipment, a boat, a bike etc.
Rent, on the other hand, is primarily used for property, e.g.; to rent a holiday residence; «office space for rent»; and «We’re living in rented accommodation».
But I realize that tip doesn’t cover everything and here’s why.
In the UK, when I was a child and before credit cards became the norm; families who couldn’t afford to pay the full price of household furniture, electrical appliances; including colour TVs, and even alarm clock radios were «bought» on HP (hire and purchase) – once popularly called the «never-never». Recently, I discovered that in the US a similar system for purchasing goods exists but is known as Rent-to-Own. link
The same discrepancy lies with car rentals in the US and car hire in the UK but in neither case do you end up purchasing the vehicle.
We hire personal trainers (I suppose they are transportable and for a limited period) but we also rent designer dresses and rent movies or videos (BrEng).

In the US the word rent is for objects (cars, tv’s, house, tool) and the word hire is for people/service. I cannot think of an example when this is not the case (I am sure a few odd examples exist though).
Upon getting comment from @user814064 I would add:
Rent can be used for a person/service if it is designated for a brief period. But in all of those cases the word hire could also be used.
In the example: «Rent a pilot» it would mean that you will use a pilot’s service for one time or a short contracted time. It would also be perfectly acceptable to use «hire a pilot».
My answer is very similar to the other answers, but my emphasis is on how much you want to interact with the object/person.
One example I can think of that illustrates my point, and only differs in the use of hire/rent would be:
I’m going to rent a backhoe to do some landscaping.
I’m going to hire a backhoe to do some landscaping.
Rent means to pay for the utility of an object, property, or service provided by another individual. You could rent a boat, you could rent a house, you could even rent a date in some illicit websites, though I wouldn’t recommend it.
Hire means to pay for a service provided by another individual or organization, BUT, as seen in the definition, it can also mean ‘to engage in temporary use for a fee’, and «hire out a car» is acceptable, with the understanding that an organization is providing the car for use. «Hire» is, however, used mostly to say «pay for temporary service of an individual or organization», and while hiring a car does sometimes appear, more commonly it is used to indicate the hiring of a professional, such as a lawyer or baker. It can also mean hiring a company, such as hiring a catering service, hiring a law firm, or hiring a construction crew, in each case the organization provides the service. It can ALSO mean to add someone to a work force, as in ‘hiring on an employee’.
The difference here is that «rent» is usually used for objects, and even though it technically can be used for ‘renting out’ a person, the connotation of renting someone is a stronger degree of obligation on the person being ‘rented out’. You have jurisdiction to do whatever you desire to your ‘rented’ property (beyond irrepairable damage), but when you hire someone or something, it is under the connotation that the organization or individual holds control over their own actions or property (though I would not recommend damaging rented property, as the renter will likely make you pay for the damages!)
