Junk-Selling Apps

The 'Tradr' App Allows Users to Easily Sell Junk and Handmade Goods

If you have a significant amount of junk piling up in your home or garage, this app makes it easy for you to get rid of it and make some cash while you're at it.

Unlike services such as eBay and Craigslist, Tradr allows users to upload photos, write a description and place an add in one single place. The simplified platform is modeled after the dating app Tinder, to make it even easier for users to navigate, purchase and sell junk.

The simplified platform is perfect for buyers trying to find second-hand items and ideal for sellers looking to quickly unload their unwanted goods.
