Used fridge freezers in Canada typically sell for C$170 to C$660 (about $120 to $470). Large fridge freezers are heavy, awkward and cheap to buy new at the budget end, so condition and access do most of the pricing.
What fridge freezers are worth in Canada
| Condition | Typical | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| New with Tags | C$661 | Unused, tags or seals intact |
| Like New | C$562 | Barely used, no visible wear |
| Good | C$429 | Light signs of use, complete and working |
| Fair | C$297 | Heavily used, or a described fault or missing part |
| For Parts | C$165 | Not working or incomplete, sold as seen |

What pulls it down
- Failing door seals, which let in warm air
- Compressors that run constantly or cycle noisily
Selling a fridge freezer in Canada
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.
Canada’s resale market is concentrated in a handful of metro areas separated by very long distances, which makes it unusually collection-led — most buyers are looking for something they can pick up the same week.
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.
Shipping cost is the single commonest reason a Canadian listing stalls. Decide collection versus courier before you price it, and say which you are offering.
Working out what yours is worth
- Run it for a day and check both compartments reach temperature
- Close the door on a sheet of paper and check the seal grips it
Getting it ready
- Run it for a day and check both compartments reach temperature, and listen for compressor cycling rather than constant running.
- Clean it thoroughly inside, including the door seals, and check the seals still grip a sheet of paper.

Configuration, capacity and features: “Samsung 70/30 Frost Free Fridge Freezer, 300L, A+”. The fridge to freezer split is a genuine search term. Frost free is worth stating because it saves the buyer real effort and commands a premium.
Collection only. Defrost and dry it fully beforehand, and tell the buyer it must stand upright for several hours before being switched on — that advice prevents a ruined compressor and a complaint.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the C$661 a buyer pays is the C$661 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Common questions
Where can I sell a fridge freezer in Canada?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. 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.
Are all the shelves and drawers included?
Count them. Replacement shelves are model-specific, expensive and often discontinued, so missing ones matter more than they look.
Is a used fridge freezer worth selling?
Yes if it runs properly, though the sums are modest. Buyers care most about seals, temperature and whether all the shelves are there.
Who moves a fridge freezer?
The buyer, almost always. Say in the listing whether it is upstairs and whether it has been transported upright.
