Used chest of drawerses in Udaipur typically sell for ₹3,850 to ₹23,000 (about $40 to $240). A chest of drawers is judged by how the drawers run — a buyer will open every one, so make sure they slide before you photograph anything.
Selling a chest of drawers in Udaipur
Udaipur is built around a series of lakes with palaces on and beside them, and it is one of the country’s best-known destinations for both tourism and weddings. Marble processing and handicrafts are substantial local industries alongside the visitor economy.
Hotels and guesthouses replace furnishings on a commercial cycle here far more than in ordinary cities, and the wedding trade means occasion clothing is bought, worn once and sold on in genuine volume.
On occasion clothing, ask how many times it has actually been worn. A great deal here is worn once for a wedding and is genuinely as-new, but the answer is what separates that from a hire-trade piece.
Udaipur, in Rajasthan, has around 460,000 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. Jaipur, Jodhpur and Kota are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Udaipur
Demand climbs ahead of the festival season and again in the run-up to wedding season, when clothing, jewellery and home items all move faster.
What chest of drawerses are worth
What lifts the price
- Solid wood with dovetailed drawer joints
- Antique and mid-century pieces
What pulls it down
- Drawers that stick, drop or fall off their runners
- Particleboard construction with sagging bases
Working out what yours is worth
- Open and close every drawer fully
- Photograph the top and any water marks honestly
Getting it ready
- Check the drawer bottoms from underneath, which is where thin ply bows or drops out entirely.
- Wipe the top. It is the surface buyers look at first and usually carries ring marks or heat damage.
Photograph
- All drawers open at staggered depths, showing they run freely
- The inside of one drawer, showing the base and joints
Put in the description
- Number of drawers, and whether any are lockable or have dividers
- Material and finish — solid wood, veneer, painted or laminate
Lead with material, drawer count and style: “Solid Pine Chest of Drawers, 5 Drawer, Waxed” or “1960s Teak Chest of Drawers, 6 Drawer”. Drawer count is a real search term because buyers are matching a space, and the era matters for anything mid-century.
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 chest of drawers in Udaipur?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. The old city around the lakes is narrow and largely unsuitable for vehicles, so agree a landmark outside it for anything large. The newer parts of the city are straightforward to drive in.
Can it be painted?
Say what the finish is. A waxed or oiled surface needs different preparation from a laminate, and a large share of buyers for chests are planning to repaint.
