I laughed at this

We certainly are! We're rapidly expanding this year and Europe is definitely one of our most requested markets

Well, we thought so as well when we initially entered the space. But if you're checking out near Fisherman's Wharf in SF and you want to spend the day in the mission, commuting back to your hotel to pick up your things become a lot less practical. The majority of users are Airbnb customers, but do see quite a few hotel guests use us as well

You're absolutely right. In Europe a lot of ski trips are done by travel agencies, with busses and housing in apartments. And you almost always have to check out at 10AM. So it mostly takes away a day on skis (which is awesome for the few that do make it out on the "travel days" )

We do a few things to keep it risk free for store owners. For one, we are the ones providing insurance, so they're never the target of a claim. Besides that, we allow store partners the right to refuse service - or ask to inquire about what's being stored. None of our locations have ever had to do that, but it takes care of the scenario where a store partner fears people are storing something illicit.

Hi,

I'm Cody's co-founder. That is literally the origin of Bounce. "Bounce" your things away from you and back to you when you need them again. As mentioned it obviously comes with a host of challenges that you don't have in the current decentralised and static model - but I do believe it's achievable. And it's definitely something we want to tackle long term!

I love your name idea ;) SMS. Are you in SF?

Hmm. That does sound neat. When and where do you launch initially?

How do I get stuff to and from my "Everywhere locker". And when and how can I retrieve it again?
