UseTogether is an on-line community in which you can borrow, give away or swap personal possessions with other members for free.

UseTogether is a community and an online platform through which people can gain access to resources without having to own them. Basically, members may lend, give away or swap objects and services at no financial expense. They may add things that they’re willing to share with others and they receive access to all the things other people have posted.

UseTogether means wielding the things we own in an intelligent and sustainable way, saving money, natural resources and getting to meet nice, like-minded people. We want the experiences objects have to offer and not the objects themselves. We want to listen to music, we don’t want the CD. We want to read a book, not to own a book. We want our grass cut, not the lawn mower. Pareto’s principle applies to the things we own as well: 80% of the time, we use 20% of our possessions.

UseTogether is for those who believe in trust between people, in the power of community and who are willing to give collaborative consumption a chance. UseTogether is for people who are willing to share; for those who understand that Sharing is caring and Living is giving.
