Read full description

Small towns run on favors. TownRun makes them easier to ask for. Someone in your circle is already driving into town today. TownRun lets you catch that trip — a gallon of milk, a bag of feed, a load that needs a truck bed — instead of making the drive yourself. HOW IT WORKS Post what you need. Pick a store, list your items, add a tip. Neighbors in your circle see it and one of them picks it up on a trip they were already taking. Or post your own trip. Say where you're headed and when. Neighbors can send requests along any part of your route. BUILT ON PEOPLE YOU KNOW TownRun works through circles — small groups of neighbors who have connected with each other. You only see requests from people you've accepted, and they only see yours. No strangers, no open marketplace. NO PAYMENTS, NO FEES TownRun doesn't process payments or take a cut. Reimbursement and tips are settled directly between neighbors, cash or however you already do it. The app just records the tip up front so everyone's on the same page. WHAT YOU CAN POST Shop & Buy — ask a neighbor to pick up groceries, hardware, feed, anything from a store. Neighbor Haul — something that needs a truck bed. Furniture, materials, a load that won't fit in a car. Store Run — heading to the store yourself? Post it, and neighbors can send requests along before you go. Trips — going one way, there and back, or through a few towns? Announce the route and neighbors can request a pickup or drop-off on any leg. Made in Wenatchee, Washington, for the places where a trip into town is a real errand.
