In Japan, large appliances such as refrigerators can only be thrown away by making reservations the large-garbage collecting organization and paying a fee. Because of this, sometimes large appliances such as refrigerators are tossed into the forest. Happy fridge is an app that turns a whole town into a thrift store treasure hunt. After downloading the app, you can be a treasure hunter or a treasure provider. As a treasure provider, you can take a photo of your fridge, lamp, couch or other recyclable treasure and put it in front of your home to be picked up by treasure hunters.
