How to sell your furniture fast before you move

Start three to four weeks before you leave

Big furniture takes the longest. Put everything online early, even what you still use: buyers can reserve it and pick it up on your last days.

Take one clear photo per item

Daylight, a tidy background, the whole item in the frame. For furniture, add a second photo of any wear: buyers trust sellers who show it.

Say when and where to pick up

Your area and a pickup date save you many messages. Be clear about who carries what: “ground floor, you'll need two people” sells better than a surprise.

Reply fast, and keep a waiting list

The first buyer is not always the one who shows up. When an item is reserved, keep the others on a waiting list: on Bagsy, buyers can join it themselves.

Share in several places

Post your link in your neighbourhood groups, expat groups, school and work groups. One link means you can post it everywhere in a minute.

Mark sold items straight away

Nothing annoys buyers more than asking about something already gone. One tap on Bagsy updates your page for everyone.
