Giving Away in Munich.

Munich is one of Germany's most expensive cities, which makes passing things on rather than throwing them out really worth it. Students from LMU and TU München, professionals from across Europe and families move here for work or study, and in shared flats and old apartment buildings furniture and belongings change hands all the time. Givore turns the whole city into a digital giveaway corner: find things to pick up for free near you, or pass your own belongings on to a neighbour instead of throwing them away.

A City of New Arrivals.

Year after year, Munich draws people from across Germany and abroad for the jobs, the universities and the quality of life. Every move leaves someone with furniture, appliances and household things to clear out. Givore turns that constant churn into an opportunity: what you no longer need and offer to give away is often exactly what a neighbour is looking for.

Viertel by Viertel.

Every Munich neighbourhood, or Viertel, has its own character, but sharing is part of life everywhere. From the flea market on the Theresienwiese to the free shelves in apartment hallways, reuse is woven into the city. Givore brings that habit to your phone and makes it visible to the whole neighbourhood.

High Rents, Smart Sharing.

In Munich every square metre costs, and new furniture eats into the budget fast. A sofa that will not come along on the move, a shelf left over — too good for the bulky waste. Offer it on Givore to give away, and a neighbour will happily come and collect it. Here especially, free furniture is real money saved.

A Student City.

With LMU, TU München and many other colleges, Munich has a huge student community. Find free furniture for your room, a desk, books and everything you need to settle in. At the end of term, give away whatever is left to the next person moving in.

Popular Neighbourhoods in Munich.

Schwabing

A lively Viertel of students, creatives and professionals right by the Englischer Garten. With people constantly coming and going, there is almost always a sofa, shelf or chair to give away near you.

Haidhausen

A charming old-building Viertel east of the Isar with young families and professionals. One of the most active areas for giving away furniture, clothing and household things.

Maxvorstadt

The university quarter, home to LMU and TU München. A great place to find desks, books and furniture for a student room, especially around the start of term when many people move.

Giesing

A down-to-earth, established Viertel with a mixed community. People move house often here, which keeps a steady flow of furniture and things available to pick up.

Sendling

A family-friendly district in the south with a settled neighbourhood. A good place to find a free fridge, a washing machine or furniture when someone is moving on.

Neuhausen

A popular western Viertel with families, students and professionals near Nymphenburg Palace. Where so many people move in and out, there is almost always something useful to give away.

Free Stuff & Giving Away in Munich — FAQ

Common questions about finding free furniture, second-hand things and giving away in Munich.

With Givore you can find free furniture across every Munich Viertel. The most active areas are Schwabing, Haidhausen, the Maxvorstadt and Neuhausen. Open the map in the app to see which free furniture is available near you right now. Because students and new arrivals are always moving in Munich, neighbours constantly list a sofa, wardrobe or table they would rather give away than throw out.
"Zu verschenken" is the German phrase for "to give away" — handing something over for free, with no money involved. You see it in classified ads and on boxes left in apartment hallways. Givore is essentially a digital version of that for the whole city. Instead of hunting for a physical giveaway box in your area, you open the app and see right away what is free to pick up near you, and you can pass on your own things with a single photo.
Yes. The big classifieds sites do have a "give away" section, but it gets lost among countless listings for sale. Givore is built for giving away from the ground up: there are no prices and no haggling, everything is free. You offer your things to give away near you, or find free furniture, clothing and electronics in the app without sale listings in between.
Often, yes. Before you register bulky waste and wait for a collection date, you can simply offer your sofa, wardrobe or table to give away on Givore. It is usually faster, costs nothing, and your old piece gets a second life with a neighbour instead of being scrapped. The exact rules and fees for bulky waste can vary by district and provider, so giving away is frequently the simpler option.
Passing on clothes in Munich is easy with Givore. Take a few photos of the pieces you want to give away, add your location and list them in the app as things to give away. Your neighbours in Munich see your offer and get in touch to arrange a pick-up. That way your clothing gets a second life directly from person to person.
Givore is ideal when you are moving to Munich. In such an expensive city it really helps to find free furniture, kitchen things, decor and everything you need to set up your new place without spending money. Students and professionals are always moving in Munich, so there is almost always something to give away. And when you move on yourself, you pass what you no longer need to the next new arrival.
Givore is completely free for everyone. And no — charging money is not allowed. Everything listed on Givore has to be given away for free. That is exactly what sets us apart from Kleinanzeigen or Facebook Marketplace: no prices, no bargaining, just neighbours in Munich helping each other.
Yes, with a few simple precautions. Meet in a busy spot — by a front door, on a visible street or at a U-Bahn or S-Bahn station. Use the Givore chat to coordinate without sharing your phone number. Most hand-overs are quick and straightforward, and the Givore community treats each other fairly.
