Selling a BBQ grill in Edinburgh
Edinburgh is a university and finance city whose population swells enormously every August for the festival, and that single month does more to move second-hand goods here than any other part of the year. Outside it, the Old and New Town tenement stock means most people live in flats and buy furniture to fit them.
The Old Town is steep, cobbled and awkward for vehicles, with restricted access on several streets, so anything heavy needs a conversation about where a van can actually stop. Trams and buses cover the rest of the city and handle small handovers fine.
Check vehicle access before agreeing to collect anything heavy from the Old Town. Several streets are restricted or effectively impassable for a van, and the nearest legal stopping point can be a long carry.
Edinburgh, in Scotland, has around 530,000 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. Glasgow, Aberdeen and Dundee are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Edinburgh
Most private sales settle by bank transfer or cash on collection. Faster Payments clear in seconds, which makes a transfer as safe as cash for the seller — wait for it to land before the item leaves your hands.

What BBQ grills are worth
What lifts the price
- Stainless steel and cast iron construction
- Cast iron or heavy grates in good order
What pulls it down
- Rusted-through burners and fireboxes
- Warped or heavily pitted grates
Working out what yours is worth
- Light it and check every burner lights evenly
- Confirm the regulator and hose are present
Getting it ready
- On gas models, check the burners for rust-through and the igniter for a spark, and inspect the hose and regulator for perishing.
- Decide what happens to the gas bottle. Cylinders cannot be posted, most are exchange-only property of the supplier, and a part-full one should never be handed over casually.

Put in the description
- Fuel type, and burner count or cooking diameter
- Whether a cover, thermometer, tools or side burner are included
Collection. Never transport a barbecue with a connected gas cylinder — disconnect it first, and if the buyer is taking a bottle, it travels upright and secured, in a ventilated space, never a sealed boot.
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 a BBQ grill in Edinburgh?
Put it on WishThrift free and deal with the buyer direct. The Old Town is steep, cobbled and awkward for vehicles, with restricted access on several streets, so anything heavy needs a conversation about where a van can actually stop. Trams and buses cover the rest of the city and handle small handovers fine.
Is the gas bottle included?
Say plainly in the listing. Cylinders are usually the supplier’s property on an exchange scheme, and a buyer expecting a full bottle who gets none has a real grievance.
