We’re creating a new eco-app for your smart phone and browser that connects you and your stuff to a new life…

What if all our stuff ended up in our watersheds and on our beaches?It already has, so our nonprofit company is creating a smart solution to this problem. And we need your help to bring it to North America and beyond!

You’ll find practical and entertaining ways to avoid buying things that aren’t easily reused, and DIY upcycling options for your stuff that range from fast-and-easy to weekend projects involving power tools.

If all you want to do is toss your item into a recycling bin, you’ll find accurate and up-to-date information about what goes where in your local recycling bins, and where to send things that aren’t accepted in your neighborhood.

We believe that if there’s something you need, chances are it’s already hidden in your stuff, or your neighbor has it. Our easy-to-use mobile app will be the hub that renews our stuff and our connections to each other. Keep reading for examples of how the app works, and check out our app walkthrough page with screenshots.

 HOW IT WILL WORK:

We are developing a massive database that will allow our app to connect you to solutions to renew your stuff. What you’ll find will depend on what you want to do with your stuff:

Want to find ways to reduce your use of this item in the future? We’ll connect you with practical, environmentally friendly, and entertaining alternatives.

Want to be a local hero and pay it forward? We’ll connect you with people who need what you have.

Want to get your DIY geek on and transform your item into something new and useful? We’ll connect you with inspiration and how-to details.

Want to share your DIY innovations and tips for a life less wasteful? We’ll connect you with an audience that appreciates and needs your wisdom.

Want to pass your item on to someone else who’s ready to upcycle it? We’ll connect you with artisans, individuals, and businesses who work with what you have.

Want to sell your item to someone who will pay for it? We’ll connect you with ways to turn your item into cash or credit in your pocket.

Want to receive your neighbors’ used stuff for your projects or business? We’ll connect you with our community to get the word out.

Want to simply toss your item into the nearest recycling bin? We’ll tell you exactly where that is, and clear up the confusion about what goes where.

Just want to throw your item away? We’ll tell you where “away” is, and what path your stuff will take to get there.
