My goal is to ensure that I am open to delivering items or meeting at other locations instead of just having porch pick ups. Also ensuring that any swaps I organize are centrally located with carpooling encouraged.

REFLECTION QUESTIONIn Our Communities Support a Sharing/Reuse EconomyWhat are some of the barriers to sharing economies? What is your plan for supporting or creating one in your community? If you focused on purchasing items second-hand, did you have success? What did you learn in the process?
Rebecca O'Linn 4/04/2024 10:10 AMTransportation - many folks are unable to participate in swaps or pick up items that are outside of their normal routes.
My goal is to ensure that I am open to delivering items or meeting at other locations instead of just having porch pick ups. Also ensuring that any swaps I organize are centrally located with carpooling encouraged.
