Members must comply with the laws in the jurisdiction of the property in the Listing, in relation to the possession of weapons.  Where possession of weapons is permitted, we require that all weapons that are present at a listing must be properly stored and secured. If a weapon is in plain sight or discoverable by guests, hosts are required to indicate its presence in their House Rules. Guests are also required to provide notice of, and obtain consent for, any secured weapons prior to booking, and should use the messaging feature to do so.

If prior notice of a secured weapon is not provided and the host or guest prefers to cancel the reservation, LDS Stays will allow cancellation without penalty.

Note: All weapons present in a listing must be secured regardless of whether they have been disclosed. Members who violate this expectation may be suspended or removed from the site.

What is considered a weapon?

Any mechanism that can be used to fire a projectile is considered a weapon. This includes, but is not limited to: Standard firearms, air guns, self-defence or deterrent devices such as tasers, pepper spray or bladed item, ammunition of any kind, and imitation firearms.

What are accepted types of secure storage?

Locked cases or cabinets and visible locking devices are acceptable storage options. Secured storage must guarantee that only authorized users have access.
