Used cots in Norwich typically sell for £40 to £200 (about $54 to $270). Cots sell well because they are bulky to buy new and used only briefly, but buyers check one thing first: whether every fixing and instruction is present so they can rebuild it safely.
Selling a cot in Norwich
Norwich was one of the largest cities in medieval England and has the street pattern and the churches to show for it, with a Norman castle and cathedral still dominating the centre. It has a large university, a strong independent retail scene and a mustard brand known everywhere.
The university clears student housing every June, and the independent and vintage trade here means goods circulate repeatedly. The old housing stock brings genuinely old furniture onto the market.
The medieval centre has narrow lanes and extensive pedestrian zones, so agree a spot on a wider road for anything large. The city is compact and small handovers are genuinely easy.
Norwich, in England, has around 195,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. London, Birmingham and Leeds are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Norwich
Two practical things shape a UK sale. Bank holidays and the run-up to Christmas slow collections right down, so build a few extra days in. And postage from mainland Britain to Northern Ireland, the Highlands and the islands carries surcharges that catch sellers out — quote for the buyer’s actual postcode rather than a flat rate.

What cots are worth
What lifts the price
- Current safety standard labels intact
- Solid wood construction with no splits
What pulls it down
- Missing fittings, which make reassembly impossible
- Drop-side designs, which are no longer recommended
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the bar spacing and safety label
- Inspect the top rails for bite damage and splinters
Getting it ready
- Find or download the assembly instructions, and gather every bolt, allen key and fixing. A cot missing fixings is close to unsellable.
- Check the mattress base and the slats for cracks, and confirm the drop-side or height adjustment still locks properly.

Put in the description
- Cot or cot bed, and the mattress size in centimetres
- Whether all fixings and the instructions are present
Type and mattress size: “Solid Pine Cot Bed with Mattress, 140x70cm”. A cot bed converts to a toddler bed and is worth more than a plain cot, so make the distinction clear. State whether a mattress is included, because that is a significant part of the value.
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.
