OFFLOADIT is an online marketplace app launched in 2021 that connects builders, contractors, DIY enthusiasts, homeowners, and businesses for buying and selling surplus and used construction materials, equipment, and building supplies. Founded by Steve Silva and Jim Firth in 2020 and based in Atascadero, California, the company aims to reduce waste in the construction industry, where a significant portion of materials ends up in landfills. The user-friendly mobile app allows users to list items quickly and search through hundreds of categories, including construction tools, machinery, and reclaimed materials. OFFLOADIT operates on a subscription-based revenue model starting at $9.99 and contributes a portion of sales to local Habitat for Humanity ReStores, supporting affordable housing initiatives. The platform promotes sustainability by facilitating efficient transactions and helping users find high-quality items at discounted prices.
