Used tool sets in Surrey typically sell for C$38 to C$285 (about $27 to $200). Hand tools barely wear out, so a complete set from a decent maker holds value for decades.
Selling a tool set in Surrey
Surrey is among the fastest-growing cities in the country, with a young population, large family households and a great deal of new housing. Practical household goods and children’s equipment dominate what changes hands.
Spread out and built for driving, with easy parking almost everywhere, which makes furniture and appliance collection simple. Distances within the city are longer than they appear on a map.
For children’s equipment, check the manufacture date and whether it has been recalled. Car seats in particular expire, and a seat past its date should not be resold at any price.
Surrey, in British Columbia, has around 570,000 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. Vancouver, Burnaby and Richmond are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Surrey
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.

Brand, piece count and type: “Halfords Advanced 200 Piece Tool Set, Complete in Case”. Piece count is the main search term. Say honestly whether it is complete — “complete” or “missing 4 pieces, listed below” both work far better than silence.
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.
