Why barter? It just makes sense.

Did you know that every day Americans throw 200 million tons of stuff away? It doesn't magically disappear to some distant galaxy; it ends up in landfills in our neighborhoods. We have to change how we live to save our planet.

When you barter, you put existing resources back into our economy without putting more strain on our planet to produce more.

Barter Planet is a free online community that allows you to trade what you have for what you need. We’re currently in beta, and we welcome your feedback.

In our blog, we share more about our vision. As our site grows in the days and months ahead, our goal is to build a community together to help create a better world.
