Used iPhones in Montreal typically sell for C$150 to C$1,150 (about $110 to $810). Almost all of the spread comes down to two things buyers check before anything else: which generation it is, and what the battery health reads.
Selling an iPhone in Montreal
Montreal has the most distinctive moving culture in the country: a very large share of leases end on the same day at the start of July, and for about a week the entire city changes address at once. The second-hand market is built around that single date.
The outdoor staircases that front so many buildings here are narrow, steep and often spiral, and they defeat more furniture than anything else. Establish the stairs before the price, and remember that winter makes all of it considerably harder.
Measure the outdoor staircase, not just the doorway. The spiral and half-turn stairs on many buildings here defeat sofas and mattresses that would fit anywhere else, and the seller may never have taken it out that way.
Montreal, in Quebec, has around 1.8 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Quebec City, Laval and Gatineau are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Montreal
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.

What iPhones are worth
What lifts the price
- Battery health above 85% — buyers ask for this figure before they ask about scratches
- Carrier-unlocked, with the original box, cable and IMEI clear on checks
What pulls it down
- A locked handset, or one with any finance or iCloud lock still attached
- Aftermarket screen repairs, which buyers spot from colour and touch response
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the model and storage in Settings > General > About
- Search sold listings for that exact model, storage and battery band
Getting it ready
- Read Settings → Battery → Battery Health and note the maximum capacity percentage. Buyers will ask, and a listing that states it up front outsells one that does not.
- Find the model and storage in Settings → General → About, and check whether the carrier line says Unlocked.
Photograph
- Front, screen on and showing the home screen, so the display is provably working
- Every crack, chip or deep scratch, photographed close and lit
Put in the description
- Exact model and generation, and the storage capacity in GB
- Whether the screen or battery has been replaced, and whether with genuine parts
iPhones sell within days when priced correctly, and values step down noticeably each September when new models are announced. If you are selling anyway, selling before the announcement is worth real money.
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.

Common questions
Where can I sell an iPhone in Montreal?
List it free here and arrange the handover with the buyer yourself. The outdoor staircases that front so many buildings here are narrow, steep and often spiral, and they defeat more furniture than anything else. Establish the stairs before the price, and remember that winter makes all of it considerably harder.
Has the screen been replaced?
Answer honestly. A third-party screen is not a dealbreaker if disclosed and priced for, but a buyer who discovers it later has a genuine grievance.
