5 smart apps to buy, sell or donate your items

Today, ecology is at the center of debates and we ourselves must question our way of consuming. Buy again and again to throw away better? There are better ways and the solutions to do so are not lacking. We are not going to look again and again at the market behemoths that are The good cornerVinted or the Facebook Market Place, but rather on more specific and original applications. Get ready for nice surprises and to do business.

Depop

Depop is a fashion marketplace where you will find rather vintage items. If you’re looking or want to sell Air Jordan 3s, some 90s escape Adidas neon jackets or a slightly distressed Levi’s denim coat, this is where it’s at. We are really into nostalgic fashion and the second-hand side. As the application is global, the choice is vast. The ads feed looks like like two drops of water to that of Instagram so you won’t be disappointed.

Wallapop

If you don’t want to travel too far from where you live, you can use wallopop. The app will ask for your location and offer you announcements for objects that are not far from you according to the distance filter you have chosen (1km, 5km…). A clever way to trade without having to travel the city. A sofa is always easier to move on foot for 200m than by car in traffic jams for 10 kilometres.

Geev

Rather than selling or paying, you can also give or receive without spending. Geev is indeed based on the principle of donation and gratuity. Thus, you can make people happy by donating your objects or recovering them without the need for a transaction. A great initiative that allows you to extend the life of objects but also to give food when you realize that you can’t eat it. The application is quite successful, but you will have to be on the lookout if you want to be the first person to benefit from the best plans. You want to know more ? We did a whole topic on Geev a while ago…

Beebs

All people who have children too often find themselves surrounded by objects that they no longer use and which end up gathering dust. Beebs is a platform that has thus specializing in announcements concerning everything that affects 0-14 year olds. You will therefore find strollers as well as clothes or books, for example. Practical for new parents who can also equip themselves at a lower price. If you sell, the shipment is made easier for you with the printing directly at your home of the label which allows you to drop off the package free of charge at a relay point.

Hello Neighbors

In terms of ecology, nothing beats proximity. Hello Neighbors allows you in this way to take advantage of service or equipment rentals not far from your home. Why buy a drill that you’ll use once a year if someone in your neighborhood can rent it to you for $20? All you have to do is post your ad on the app and you’ll get responses from people around you. Those who use the application are rather in a spirit of mutual aid and the return of social ties in the neighborhoods. What even allow you to meet good people and improve neighborly relations.
