On the shore of Sarasota Bay, a lagoon on the Gulf Coast, Sarasota serves as the county seat of Sarasota County. Barrier islands between the bay and the Gulf include Lido Key, St. Armands Key, Bird Key and the northern part of Siesta Key, and SR 789 heads out to them as the Ringling Causeway before becoming Gulf of Mexico Drive. Interstate 75 runs about five miles east of downtown, the Tamiami Trail carries US 41, Washington Boulevard carries US 301, and Fruitville Road is State Road 780. Named districts include the Rosemary District, Burns Square, Newtown, Pinecraft, St. Armands Circle and the Caples-Ringling Estates area. Ca' d'Zan, the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, Mote Marine Laboratory and Sarasota Jungle Gardens are well-known stops. New College of Florida and Ringling College of Art and Design both call the city home. Sarasota County Public Schools runs the public schools. If your home is on one of the keys, say which key and street when booking; on the mainland, giving Fruitville Road, Washington Boulevard or the Tamiami Trail as a reference works well.

Common questions about renting in Sarasota

Sterling Wash, Dry & Fold charges $55 a month for a set. A single washer or dryer on its own is $40 a month. Delivery is $45, charged once, and repairs are included for as long as you rent.

Is this rent to own?

No. Sterling Wash, Dry & Fold rents the machines and keeps owning them. There is no purchase built into the payments and nothing owed when you stop, which is the main thing separating this from Aaron's and Rent-A-Center.

Do I need hookups?

For a standard set, yes: hot and cold water, a drain, and a 120V outlet, plus a vent or a 240V line depending on the dryer. Tell Sterling Wash, Dry & Fold what you have when you enquire and they will say straight away whether it will work. Some operators carry ventless machines for places without a vent.

What happens when I want to stop?

You tell them and they collect the machines. That is the difference between renting and rent to own: there is nothing left owing and nothing to sell on.
