Boz is a digital platform that lets people lend and borrow everyday items locally, tools, gear, and more.

We buy too much and borrow too little. From power tools to camping gear, most of us own expensive items that only get used once or twice before being tucked away to collect dust. That’s where Boz comes in. Boz is a digital platform that makes it easy to lend and borrow everyday items within your local community, from tools to gear and everything in between.

Why buy something your neighbour already owns? Boz keeps things simple by giving you a trusted space to share, borrow, and make better use of what’s already around you. With peer-to-peer listings, location-based browsing, and options to lend for free, koha, or a set price, it’s flexible for everyone. In-app messaging, secure checkout, and ratings mean borrowing feels safe and convenient, while helping cut down on clutter, waste, and unnecessary spending.

Good For You. Better For The Enviroment.

Have you ever wanted to join a camping trip but didn’t have a tent? Wanted to give surfing a go but don’t know anyone with a board? Decided to tackle a DIY project but didn’t have the tools? Or thought about gardening but didn’t want to buy hedge shears you’ll use once a year?

That’s exactly where Boz comes in. Boz is here for the moments when you’re ready to dive in but don’t have the gear. Instead of missing out or overbuying, you can borrow from your neighbours, share what you already own, and be part of a community that makes things possible without the waste.
