The latest features, built for busy parents
Tell Schooly what you're after — "age 8–9 jumper at my school" — and get a notification the moment a matching advert is posted. No more checking back every day.
Snap a photo and Schooly suggests the title, category, condition and description for you. Review, tweak and post — your advert is live in under a minute.
Spotted something but need to check sizes at home first? Save any advert and come back to it later — it's waiting in your saved list.
See the difference your school community is making — items given a second life, estimated waste kept out of landfill, and value recirculated between families.
Rate your experience after a handover and see how others found buying or selling with someone — so you can trade with confidence.
Real benefits for your family and your school community
Uniforms, books and equipment at a fraction of the new price — or completely free. One family's outgrown kit is another family's back-to-school sorted.
Deal with parents at your own school and in your own area. Collection is around the corner, not across the country — and perfectly good items stay out of landfill.
Schooly speaks 13 languages, and every listing shows its real local price — €, £, $, kr or ¥. Wherever your school is, Schooly feels local.
Post a wanted ad for the uniform, equipment or book you need and parents at your school can offer theirs. It works for all kinds of books too — school-related or not.
Kids at different schools? Follow them all and buy, sell and browse across your whole list — the whole family's school gear, in one app.

With schooly you can:

Send messages, ask questions, have private chats with other buyers and sellers.
Schooly allows you to ask questions about uniforms, books or equipment you see listed and have private conversations with others to arrange for collection.
