Selling a cardigan in Whitby
Whitby is a lakeside commuter town with a preserved nineteenth-century main street and a harbour, sitting between two larger neighbours in the eastern part of the region. It has grown steadily rather than in a boom, so the housing stock spans a wide range of ages.
Families moving up the housing ladder within the region drive most of the supply, so furniture and children’s equipment change hands locally and repeatedly rather than being sold outside it.
The commuter rail station and the harbour are the two landmarks everyone knows. Driving is easy and parking is not a constraint, so anything large is straightforward to arrange.
On outdoor equipment, ask where it spent the winter. Anything left under a deck or in an unheated shed through freeze-thaw cycles will have suffered regardless of how little it was used.
Whitby, in Ontario, has around 140,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Whitby
Winter clothing and sports equipment move from October, and the spring thaw brings the strongest few weeks for furniture, bikes and garden items.
