Used cabin bags in Burnaby typically sell for C$38 to C$160 (about $27 to $115). Cabin bags live or die on dimensions, because a bag that exceeds an airline’s limit is useless to the buyer.

Selling a cabin bag in Burnaby

The university clears student housing every spring, and the rental market across the region is expensive enough that people move frequently. Tower living also means furniture is sold rather than stored when it no longer fits.

The rapid transit line runs through the city and the stations are the natural meeting points for anything portable. Tower housing is common, so confirm lift access and loading-bay booking before agreeing to collect furniture.

In tower housing, confirm lift access and whether the building requires a loading bay to be booked. Many buildings here do, and turning up without one wastes an afternoon for both of you.

Burnaby, in British Columbia, has around 250,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Vancouver, Surrey and Richmond are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What cabin bags are worth

What lifts the price

  • Dimensions within common airline limits
  • Recognised luggage brands

What pulls it down

  • Oversized bags exceeding standard limits
  • Cracked shells

Working out what yours is worth

  • Weigh it empty and state the figure
  • Roll it loaded to test the wheels

Getting it ready

  • Measure it externally including wheels and handles, in centimetres, and be precise rather than quoting the manufacturer’s claim.
  • Weigh it empty, since cabin allowances are often weight-limited as well as size-limited.

  • A tape measure across the widest external dimension
  • The interior fully opened, plus any wear, scuff or fault

Put in the description

  • Empty weight in kilograms
  • Wheel, handle and zip condition

Small enough to post economically, unlike a full-size case. Measure the packed box for volumetric pricing before you quote.

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.
