Used cots in Vaughan typically sell for C$75 to C$375 (about $54 to $270). Cots sell well because they are bulky to buy new and used only briefly, but buyers check one thing first: whether every fixing and instruction is present so they can rebuild it safely.
Selling a cot in Vaughan
Vaughan grew from farmland into one of the fastest-growing municipalities in the country within a generation, and it now has a subway connection and a downtown core that did not exist twenty years ago. Warehousing and distribution are a large part of what happens here, alongside a great deal of new housing.
New-build housing means households furnishing from scratch and then upgrading within a few years, which puts relatively young furniture onto the market. Larger lots also mean garden and outdoor equipment turns over regularly.
Driving is assumed and the road network is built for it, so collecting something large is genuinely easy here compared with the older city to the south. Agree a plaza or a landmark rather than trying to describe a subdivision.
Vaughan, in Ontario, has around 325,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Vaughan
Two practical things shape a Canadian sale. Interprovincial shipping costs can exceed the value of a mid-priced item, which is why so much trade here is collection-only. And winter genuinely interrupts handovers in much of the country, so agree a window rather than a fixed day between December and March.

What cots are worth
What lifts the price
- Current safety standard labels intact
- Adjustable base heights working properly
What pulls it down
- Missing fittings, which make reassembly impossible
- Older cots not meeting current spacing standards
Working out what yours is worth
- Bag every bolt and fitting with the cot when dismantling
- Inspect the top rails for bite damage and splinters
Getting it ready
- Find or download the assembly instructions, and gather every bolt, allen key and fixing. A cot missing fixings is close to unsellable.
- Measure the mattress size it takes, since buyers need to know whether their existing mattress fits.

- Any chew marks on the rails, which are extremely common and should be shown rather than hidden
Put in the description
- Cot or cot bed, and the mattress size in centimetres
- Material, and whether the height adjusts or a side drops
Dismantle it before collection if you can, and keep the fixings in a labelled bag taped to a rail. That single step makes the handover smooth and is the sort of thing buyers remember when they rate you.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.

Say so either way. Many buyers prefer to buy a new mattress regardless, so a cot without one is not a problem when stated up front.
