+Frenchy57 Posted December 8, 2023 Posted December 8, 2023 Can we make any object a trackable ? (Obviously keeping in mind the size and being non offensive) Quote
+GeoCharmer81 Posted December 9, 2023 Posted December 9, 2023 If you are considering attaching an already existing trackable tag to an item, then, yes. If you mean putting a 'new' trackable code on an item, there are some guidelines that must be followed. 1 Quote

The other 2/3rds has her Harley trackable. We saw a bowling ball trackable online... Pretty much everything you might want to know about Trackables. Read section 4 to view what GeoCharmer81 explained on Guidelines. Much of it is based on coins made. We found it was cheaper (and a heck of a lot easier ) to use one of the manufacturers shown in 4.4... As both Charmer and TriciaG said, if it's simply one trackable made, I feel it's easier to buy the cheapest trackable and use it's code. Just search "unactivated Geocaching trackables" for an example, but even Shop Geocaching sometimes has sales. Quote
