Sell Your Garden Furniture in the US

Faded and brittle rattan, especially synthetic
Incomplete sets with mismatched chairs

Selling garden furniture in the US

Peer-to-peer payment apps dominate private sales, and buyers will usually offer one before they offer cash. Sales tax does not apply to a private sale between individuals.

Distances are the real constraint. State plainly whether you will ship or collection only, because a buyer three states away will otherwise ask.

Demand rises through the spring cleaning season and again around college move-in in August, when furniture and small appliances move fastest.

Working out what yours is worth

Check every joint and frame for rust or splitting
Photograph it assembled, in daylight

Getting it ready

Check every joint and bolt on folding or modular pieces, and count the chairs against the table.
Assess the cushions separately and honestly. Faded, damp or mildewed cushions are worth nothing and can drag the whole set down.

Put in the description

Whether cushions are included, and their honest condition
Whether it folds, stacks or dismantles for transport

Material and set size lead: “Rattan Garden Furniture Set, 4 Seater with Cushions” or “Teak Garden Table and 6 Chairs”. Teak, rattan, aluminium and steel are entirely different markets and prices, so name the material first and say whether cushions are included.

A short, sharp season from April to July. Listing in spring is worth substantially more than the same set in September, so if it is autumn, storing it until March is usually the better decision.

It costs nothing to list

There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the $404 a buyer pays is the $404 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 garden furniture in the US?

List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. Peer-to-peer payment apps dominate private sales, and buyers will usually offer one before they offer cash. Sales tax does not apply to a private sale between individuals.

Has it been left outside all winter?

Answer honestly. Buyers can read weathering in the photographs anyway, and admitting it while pointing out that teak greys harmlessly is far stronger than a vague claim.

Does weathered teak reduce the value?

Not much. Teak greys naturally and many buyers prefer it, though a light sand and oil lifts the price for little effort.

Are missing cushions a problem?

Yes, because matching replacements are difficult. Mention clearly what is and is not included.
