Used fridges in Glasgow typically sell for £60 to £250 (about $81 to $335). A standalone fridge is a simple sale: get the dimensions right, prove it cools, and be clear about whether it is under-counter or full height.
Selling a fridge in Glasgow
A large student population plus high turnover in the West End private rental market keeps furniture and household goods circulating. Winter here is long and genuinely cold, so coats and heating-adjacent items move on a seasonal cycle rather than steadily.
The Subway and the rail network cover the city well and most small handovers happen around a station. Tenement stairs are the real constraint on anything large: many flats are several floors up with no lift, so agree who is carrying what before either of you commits to a sofa.
Measure the stairwell, not just the item. Tenement stairs turn tightly and a sofa that fits the doorway may not make the half-landing, which is the commonest reason a collection here falls through.
Glasgow, in Scotland, has around 635,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Dundee are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Glasgow
Two practical things shape a UK sale. Bank holidays and the run-up to Christmas slow collections right down, so build a few extra days in. And postage from mainland Britain to Northern Ireland, the Highlands and the islands carries surcharges that catch sellers out — quote for the buyer’s actual postcode rather than a flat rate.

Type, capacity and brand: “Under Counter Fridge, 130L, Beko, White”. Under-counter versus full height is the primary filter because it decides whether the fridge fits the buyer’s kitchen at all. Add the dimensions in the description without fail.
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.
