Good things, closer to home.

Your neighbours.
Your circle.
More to share.

A shelf to put up. A carpet to clean. You might already know someone with just the thing. Borrow, lend and give things away with neighbours in your Cirklr circles.

Connect what is already there

Sharing starts
with a circle.

A circle is a group you share with: your housing association, neighbours or a local community. Items are shared into selected circles, so the right people can find them.

Three useful connections

Need a ladder?
Start with your circle.

  1. 01

    Join your circle

    Your housing association, neighbours or local group.

  2. 02

    Find a useful thing

    A drill for one shelf. A ladder for the curtains.

  3. 03

    Ask. Agree. Borrow.

    The owner accepts or declines. Together, you arrange collection and return.

A simple path to sharing. You can also lend or give items away.

A real kind of exchange

“Could I borrow
your drill?”

Anna shares a drill in Brf Björkgården. Alex asks to borrow it. Anna accepts, and they arrange collection in the conversation.

You choose what to share and in which circles. Owners decide which requests to accept.

Get your neighbours sharing

Room to get started

A little circle.
A lot of possibility.

Begin with the neighbours you know and the items you already have. There is plenty of room to start sharing without a membership fee.

Free access goes a long way.

You can send requests without paid membership if a shared circle containing the item has 20 or fewer members or 30 or fewer items.

Free access and membership

Before you begin

A few little
questions.

More answers
Who can see the items I share?

You choose which circles each item is shared with. People see items in the circles they have access to.

Do I need to lend before I can borrow?

No. You can join a circle and send a request without listing an item of your own.

Is borrowing always free?

Cirklr encourages free sharing. Owners may ask for compensation for operating costs. Cirklr membership is separate; see the free-access and membership rules.

A good place to start

What could you share
with a neighbour?

A drill in the cupboard. A ladder in the shed. Start with a circle and a few things you’re happy to lend.
