This weekend we challenge you to Kondo your Closet! If you haven't worn it in a whole year, maybe you don't need it? Share gratitude with your forgotten frocks and post them this weekend to be entered to win a $100 gift card to MUJI! See details and official rules below.
Kondo Your Closet — Freeya Spring Cleaning Giveaway!
When was the last time you wore that purple cardigan? Do the jeans in your drawer still fit or are you waiting for something? Quality, infrequently used clothing and gear retains value and can be so useful to others. Freeya challenges you to free yourself! Post between 4/21 and 4/23 and be entered to win a $100 gift card to Muji! See official rules for details.
Future Spring Cleaning Giveaways:
- What lurks in your garage?! Tools, forgotten holiday decorations, DIY gone bye, bye, bye? Best to plan this one out a bit. Mark your calendar for the Garage Clean Up & Out, May 5-7.
- What space do you need help cleaning up? Send us a note and let's make a giveaway with your theme in mind! Email community@freeya.com .

Spotlight on Freeya Superstar, Tay!
Tay is one of our earliest friends and when she shared how excited she was about her latest Freeya find, we had to share! Tay says, "I love Freeya! I peruse it all the time...It's a great (and cheap!) way to help the environment...And you never know what you'll find...Maybe even a brand new couch or fully grown Monstera!"
Did you Know?!
- Posting live animals goes against our terms of service. It's a slippery slope and while we love a cute batch of kitties as much as anyone, we're staying animal-free for the time being. If you're curious about what can and cannot be posted on Freeya, take a look at our FAQs.
- Annual Freeya Pro Memberships come with $59 to spend on Freeya merch and supplies .
- Responding to questions about your item is optional . The question and answer only become public if/when you respond.
- You can now message each other in the app during Scheduled Pickups. Look for the MESSAGE button on your Active Pickup screen! TLDR: The message feature is replacing the exchange of personal phone numbers. We heard you when you said you like your privacy!
Also, don't forget to confirm your pickup. Save your neighbors from heading to an item that's no longer there!
What version are we on?!
- iOS 1.2.0 and Android 1.2.0 (beep! beep! boop!)
- Pickup information is waaaay easier to find. And...zoom zoom you can get a real close look at where you're going.
- In-app messaging!! Whaat?! You can message with each other during a scheduled pickup transaction.
- Improvements on location input so you can find stuff near you. This will continue to get refined!
What's Coming Next?!
Our latest partnership with the The R ebuilding Center is so in sync with Freeya, you might think we were born to be partners! Keep a lookout for their fancy fixtures and treasures in the app.
We're always hustling to make sure you have tons of opportunities for amazing, free stuff. Whether it's coming or going out of your life, we hope you're having fun on Freeya. Don't forget to get yourself entered to win this weekend's Spring Cleaning Giveaway
