Parked Plastic: A Local Swap’n’Sell for Discs
If you’ve played disc golf for a while, you probably have a few stacks of extra plastic sitting in a closet, the garage, or the trunk. Some never quite clicked. Others were replaced by newer favorites. Meanwhile, someone nearby is searching for exactly what you’ve got parked away.
That’s where Parked Plastic comes in — a simple, local website built for our disc golf community. Think of it as a 24/7 Swap’n’Sell: connect with nearby buyers and sellers all year long, instead of waiting for the annual swap meet.
What You Can Do
- Post extra plastic you’re not throwing — give your discs a second life in someone else’s bag.
- Browse listings with useful filters like brand, mold, plastic, condition, weight, and flight numbers.
- Trade or sell locally — connect with nearby players, avoid shipping, and meet up at your home course.
How It Works
- Create an account to manage your listings and messaging preferences.
- Post a disc with photos, price, and details (brand, mold, plastic, condition, weight).
- Share and respond — buyers can find your listing and reach out. Mark items as pending or sold when they’re off the market.
Why Local?
- Meet at familiar courses or league nights.
- No shipping surprises; see the disc in person.
- Keep good plastic in play — support the local scene.
Meet-Up Safety Tips
- Meet in a public, well-lit place (course parking lot works great).
- Aim for daytime meetups; bring a friend if it’s late.
- Agree on price and condition ahead of time in messages.
- Inspect the disc in person before paying.
- Use simple, instant payments (cash or e‑transfer) and avoid shipping when possible.
- Trust your gut — if something feels off, walk away.
