# Feature: booking items

![Becky](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hubfs/Bec.jpg)

by [Becky](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/author/becky)

The whole purpose behind Warp It is to help organisations reuse a wide range of items including office furniture and fixtures, stationery, corporate wear, uniforms, and even lab and medical equipment.

To make it even easier transfer ownership, you can book items before they are placed on the Warp It reuse system.

Here’s a quick guide to help you do this.

#### **Booking an item**

When viewing an item with an available date for the future, the following will appear on the marketplace.

 

![book this item](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/book%20this%20item.png?width=358&height=188&name=book%20this%20item.png)

When clicking the 'book this item' button, the following popup appears.

 

![pop up](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/pop%20up.png?width=686&height=389&name=pop%20up.png)

 

Clicking yes will confirm the booking.

![book thisitem2](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/book%20thisitem2.png?width=339&height=137&name=book%20thisitem2.png)

 

**Watching an item if already booked**

 

When you view an item and it already has a booking, you'll be offered a watch item option.

 

![watch](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/watch.png?width=354&height=214&name=watch.png)

Upon clicking 'add to watch list', the following popup appears for confirmation. Clicking yes will confirm you have created a watch item.

 

![YES](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/YES.png?width=630&height=375&name=YES.png)

 

**When an item becomes available **

 

When an item is available in five days or less and has a booking against it, a notification will be sent to confirm that pre-claiming is available.

![claim](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/claim.png?width=760&height=626&name=claim.png)

 

**Claiming an item**

 

When clicking the button, the item is claimed and you'll be taken to the confirmation screen.

![confirm](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/confirm.png?width=731&height=469&name=confirm.png)

 

 

Emails will then be sent to the item owner and the item claimer. 

 

![emails](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/emails.png?width=745&height=253&name=emails.png)

 

![email](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/email.png?width=725&height=556&name=email.png)

 

Trade is now complete!
