Yepgot’s vision is to change the way the world consumes. Our houses are full of stuff we never, or rarely, use because when we need something, often our only option is to buy it new. This is a waste of money, a waste of the earth’s finite resources, and creates unnecessary pollution. Yepgot is creating a marketplace where you can share (rent out) items you have in your garage or around home to help out others and make some cash. OR borrow what you need, when you need it, at p2p prices rather than buying or renting from large companies.
