Borrow the ladder instead of buying one.
Your street already owns a carpet cleaner, a tile saw and a projector. They’re in somebody’s garage, used twice a year. Tingo Tango is a way to lend them to the people you actually know.
Free. No listings are public.
How it works
1. Start a circle, or join one
A circle is a group you join by invite — your street, your kid's class, the Thursday climbing crew. You send people a link.
2. List what you've got
A photo and a line of description. You choose which circles see each thing, item by item.
3. Lend it, and get it back
People ask with dates attached. You say yes or no. Everyone gets a nudge before it's due back, and again if it's late.
Nothing here is public
There is no browsing Tingo Tango from the outside. Things are visible only inside the circles you share them with, and you decide how far each one travels — just your circles, or one person further out, so a ladder can reach a neighbour’s neighbour. Requests from a hop away always name the person you have in common.
You can also take one thing, or your whole shelf, out of one person’s view. They are never told, and nothing in the app hints at it. Lending to neighbours only works if saying no is easy and quiet.
It works best once a few neighbours are on it
Start a circle for your street, list the one thing you own that nobody else needs to, and send the link to three people.
