Selling LEGO sets in Adelaide
Households turn over more slowly than in Sydney or Melbourne because more people own rather than rent. That means less volume, but what appears is more often a genuine downsize or a deceased estate rather than a share-house clear-out.
The grid layout and light traffic mean collection is genuinely simple here, and most of the metropolitan area is within half an hour of the centre. Parking is easy by the standards of the bigger capitals, so furniture pickups are uncomplicated.
On older furniture, check the joints and any veneer rather than the surface. A good deal of what appears here is genuinely old and well made, and those are the two places age actually shows.
Adelaide, in South Australia, has around 1.4 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Mount Gambier, Whyalla and Sydney are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
