Used freezers in Vancouver, British Columbia typically sell for C$115 to C$470 (about $81 to $335). A freezer sells on capacity, star rating and being demonstrably clean inside — and the one rule that must be passed on is that it should stand upright for hours before being switched on.
Selling a freezer in Vancouver
Vancouver is the most expensive city in the country and the mildest, which is an unusual combination. Apartments are small and outdoor recreation is available year-round, so compact furniture and outdoor gear are the two things that reliably move.
Traffic and the bridges determine how long any collection takes, far more than the distance does. Parking in the denser neighbourhoods is difficult, and most apartment buildings require the lift to be booked.
Ask where the item was kept. The climate is persistently damp, and fabric, foam and particle board all suffer badly in an unventilated garage or storage locker.
Vancouver, in British Columbia, has around 675,000 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. Surrey, Burnaby and Richmond are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Vancouver
Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.

What freezers are worth
What lifts the price
- Chest freezers, which are efficient and in demand
- All baskets and drawers present
What pulls it down
- Perished seals
- Missing baskets and drawer fronts
Working out what yours is worth
- Run it and confirm it reaches and holds temperature
- Defrost fully and photograph the clean interior
Getting it ready
- Defrost it completely, dry it out and leave the door ajar so it does not develop a smell before collection.
- Check every drawer and flap for cracks, and note the model and capacity from the rating plate inside.
Photograph
- The whole freezer front on, door closed
- The interior with the door open, defrosted and dry, drawers visible
Put in the description
- External width, height and depth in centimetres, and internal capacity in litres
- Type — chest, upright, under counter or integrated — and whether frost free
Type and capacity lead: “Under Counter Freezer, 4 Star, 85L” or “Tall Frost Free Freezer, 6 Drawer, 60cm Wide”. Frost free is a genuine search, and so is chest versus upright, because they suit completely different spaces.
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.
