KerbAlert
Every kilo counts.
Each item picked up through KerbAlert is added to a live landfill counter, right here.
From kerb to your place in three steps.
-
1
Spot it
Pins are free things people have put out. Orange ones went out in the last couple of hours, so be quick. Tap one for a photo and how far away it is.
-
2
Head over
Tap "I'm on my way" so others can see someone's heading there. No messaging, no arranging, no wasted trips.

Grab it
Once you're at the kerb, mark it collected. The pin comes off the map for everyone, and the landfill counter goes up.
Only someone at the kerb can say it's gone.
The collect button fills up as you walk towards an item and only unlocks within 75 metres. So when something's marked collected, the person was right there at the kerb.
The same button, as you get closer.
- Snap a photo
- Drop the pin where it's sitting
- Pick how long it stays up, 1 day to 1 week
Giving something away? Put it on the map.
It takes less than a minute, and people nearby see it straight away. When it's gone, the pin comes off by itself.
List something freeFree stays free.
Selling is 99c.
Want a few dollars for something? List it for 99c and it stays on the map for 7 days. Not sold yet? Another 99c gives it another week. Selling is coming soon.

- Buyers never pay a fee.

KerbAlert started with a simple idea: good stuff shouldn't end up in landfill just because nobody knew it was there. It's built by Kiwi Code NZ, a small local studio.
