Built for canoe hire operators

Canoe Hire Software, Downstream

From half-day paddles to multi-day expeditions, HireHelm manages trip bookings, shuttle logistics, and customer safety — all from one dashboard.

Without HireHelm

You're coordinating shuttle pick-ups over the phone while trying to brief the next group

Paper waivers blow away or get soaked — and you're exposed if there's an incident

Customers book a canoe trip but turn up without paying, wearing the wrong kit

Multi-day hires are tracked on a whiteboard that only you understand

You can't take bookings outside office hours so you're losing weekend and holiday revenue

Offer point-to-point river trips, guided tours, or hourly lake hire with flexible availability rules.

Collect digital waivers and send route maps, safety tips, and kit lists before customers arrive.

Track canoes, paddles, buoyancy aids, and dry bags. Know what's out on the river and when it's due back.

Take deposits at booking and collect balances before departure. No chasing payments on the riverbank.

Everything included

Every feature is included with your HireHelm plan. No add-ons, no hidden costs.

Set up river routes with launch and collection points. Customers choose their trip, and you manage shuttle logistics from the dashboard.
