CurbPin, the live map of things people left on the curb

Field notes

CurbPin organizes curbside reuse around freshness rather than ownership or transaction: a contributor adds a photo, street location, and category, then later users can verify whether the item remains available. Each report carries a posting or verification time, and the available status vocabulary is deliberately practical—“still there,” “fetched,” or “gone.” The site names furniture, appliances, toys, and building materials as example categories and includes community guidelines alongside account deletion.
