Stuffstr
The joy of less stuff - an app that keeps track of your stuff.
Stuffstr provides a simple interface through which users can manage their ‘library’ of possessions and encourages them to donate, repair or give away their disused or unwanted stuff. The app helps consumers find local clothing donation sites to recycle their old clothes. These sites will accept all fabrics, textiles and brands and will offer store discounts as a reward. The app is also capable of automatically importing past and future purchases from Amazon in addition to processing online receipts from over 700,000 retailers. These new partnerships aim to address two similar problems. The first is the burden of household clutter: Stuffstr founder, John Atcheson, claims that there is more than $7,000 worth of unused stuff sitting in the average American household. The second is the need to deal with textile waste. A recent study has estimated that 85% of textiles in the US end up in the landfill.
