How do I make a moving cache?

[+diosma1]

Hi . I was interested in starting up a moving cache that would move all throughout Europe. I have a few questions about these.

 

1. Is it allowed?

2. Do I have to switch owners whenever it is in someone elses possession?

3. Will reviewers of a foreign country allow it or not?

 

Also, would you have any tips for them??

 

Thanks so much

You can't anymore, at least not on this site.

Not allowed any longer. There are a few existing ones that were grandfathered in.

New moving caches have not been published for over a decade. You may have seen one of the grandfathered ones from the 2000-2002 era.

 

This is covered by the "Cache Permanence" guideline:

 

5. Geocache Permanence

 

Geocaches are placed for the long term.

 

Cachers will expect your cache to remain in place for a realistic and extended period of time. Therefore, caches that have the goal to move (traveling caches), or temporary caches (caches hidden for less than 3 months or for one-time events) will not be published.

 

I would recommend using a travel bug. A travel bug can be attached to a container with trade items inside, and it can move from one larger cache container to another.

Thanks for all the replies . I thought of a travel bug too but I don't want to buy something off the internet so it isn't an option.

There are some brick and mortar stores, but why not buy online?

Well there are none of those stores in Ireland I don't think and it's just a pet peeve of me and my parents.

What about a cache then?

I know that, I have made caches already

Get someone to order it for you. My daughters mom is like that and don't like to order anything online. She is always hitting me up to order it for her.
