Sell Your Cat Tree in Montreal

Used cat trees in Montreal typically sell for C$38 to C$170 (about $27 to $120). Cat trees are cheap new at the budget end, so second-hand value depends almost entirely on how clean and sturdy it is.

Selling a cat tree 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 July moving week produces a concentration of second-hand furniture that has no real equivalent elsewhere in Canada. Prices in the days either side of it are the lowest of the year, and the choice is at its widest.

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 cat trees are worth

What lifts the price

  • Solid, stable bases that do not rock
  • Sisal posts with rope intact

What pulls it down

  • Shredded sisal and torn carpet
  • Small single-post units, which sell for very little

Working out what yours is worth

  • Inspect the sisal posts for shredding
  • Clean thoroughly and photograph in daylight

Getting it ready

  • Vacuum every platform and the carpet surfaces, and clean out any enclosed bed thoroughly.
  • Be honest about whether the previous cat sprayed on it. That is a smell that does not come out and it must not be a surprise.

Photograph

  • The whole tree upright, whole, against a plain wall
  • The base and any wobble point, plus every worn, shredded or stained area

Put in the description

  • Overall height and base footprint
  • Whether it dismantles, and whether all fixings are present

Steady all year, with a small lift after Christmas and when people take on new cats in spring. Tall, clean, sturdy trees sell within a week.

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 cat tree 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.

Does it smell?

Answer honestly, including whether the previous cat sprayed on it. This is the one thing that makes a cat tree worthless, and it cannot be hidden at collection.

How much is a cat tree worth in Montreal?
