Welcome to Travel Swop, your one stop travel swop shop.
What does Travel Swop do?
For every traveller that has reached the end of their journey and are making their way home, there is another traveller who has just touched down and is eager to pick up where you left off.
This is where Travel Swop steps in. We provide the connection between you and fellow travellers to swop not only your modus transportatus, but also travel tales and lifeline friendships in one easy and convenient location.
How does Travel Swop connect me with other travellers?
We provide a simple search function that allows you to drill down to country, city, the item and model you are looking for with the from and to dates the item will be available in the city you selected. This way you can plan your trip in advance to work out which city you need to land in to buy your transportation and start your journey.
Or if you get half way through your journey and you need to go home to you can update your location and date range to let people know that you are going to be in town and have a rocket ship for swop.

How to sell or rent your bike, car or motorbike?
For the Swoppa (you're the one looking to sell your bike, car or motorbike): It's very easy. You can create an account or sign in with your Facebook/Twitter account then add a new Swop. Fill out all the Swop details and give a date range that you expect to reach your final destination so that fellow travellers know roughly when you will be in the city that they are looking to buy your swop.
We recommend that you post your swop as soon as you have a rough idea of when/where you will be heading. Even if you just bought your motorbike/car/bicycle from Travel Swop we still recommend reposting it under your name so that you. This way other travellers will be able to start planning their trip based around your swop dates.
For example, if you touch down in Hanoi Vietnam, you find your perfect motorbike to travel across Vietnam and you plan to travel all the way down to Ho Chi Minh City in 4 weeks you should repost your motorbike with a date range (give it a few days leyway each side of your expected arrival date to Ho Chi Minh City as you may stay a little longer (after falling in love with the country) or a little shorter depending on how fast you travel and how long you stay at each location.
We ask for a small fee of $4 to register each Swop to cover the cost of hosting, to stop people posting crap for fun and also to continue the development of new features and functions for the site.
