So you recently used Airbnb or maybe you're planning on trying it for the first time on your next vacay, did you know there are also hundreds of other peer-to-peer travel websites around the world offering just about anything you can think of? Apartments, cars, planes, mail delivery, grocery delivery, electric scooters, desk space, you name it.
Trablr, like Kayak.com for mainstream travel, is the global hub for multiple peer to peer websites. Whether you need a short lift, a car for the day, an apartment for the weekend or a desk to work from once you arrive, Trablr will soon aggregate the results from multiple peer-to-peer services to help you find the best options without having to go from site to site no matter where you are.
Trablr is a Chicago-based startup working to add new travel partners and seeking funding to help take this travel experience to the next level. Please contact [email protected] to learn about investing or ways you could be apart of Trablr. Eddie Patzsch, the founder, will also be pitching at the next Built In Chicago Launch Event, October 24th at Rockit Bar and Restaurant.
How do our Twitter friends use peer-to-peer sites in Chicago?
@Iwonka: "I get a ride when I'm late to work sometimes from strangers on Lyft."
@Maxarkey: "I once had a random person from TaskRabbit come drill holes in my apartment for $15."
@dvdvuy: "If I'm feeling lazy I'll have a stranger from Instacart deliver my groceries."
How do you participate in the sharing economy in Chicago?
