Used mattresses in Windsor typically sell for C$57 to C$375 (about $40 to $270). Mattresses are the one furniture category where hygiene rules the market, and honest disclosure matters more than condition.
Selling a mattress in Windsor
Windsor sits directly across the river from a much larger American city and is the country’s automotive town, with assembly and tooling work that has run for generations. It is the southernmost city in the country, which makes its summers genuinely hot by Canadian standards.
The automotive cycle moves this market as a whole rather than gradually — plant announcements change what is for sale within weeks. Tool and trade equipment is unusually good here because so much of the workforce is skilled.
Driving is the norm and the city is flat and easy to move around. The riverfront is the obvious landmark; border traffic can back up the approaches to the crossings, so avoid arranging anything near them at peak times.
Windsor, in Ontario, has around 230,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Windsor
Winter clothing and sports equipment move from October, and the spring thaw brings the strongest few weeks for furniture, bikes and garden items.

What mattresses are worth
What lifts the price
- A protector used from new, with no staining
- No sagging or visible body impressions
What pulls it down
- Any staining, which makes most buyers walk away
- Any suggestion of pests, which ends the sale entirely
Working out what yours is worth
- Lie on it and check for a visible dip
- State the age and whether a protector was used
Getting it ready
- Strip it and inspect both sides in daylight for stains, which for most buyers ends the conversation regardless of price.
- Check the edges and the centre for sagging by pressing down along the length — a dipped middle is what buyers are testing for.
Photograph
- The whole mattress bare and flat, shot from above in daylight
- The second side, also bare, because buyers assume you photographed the better one
Put in the description
- Size in feet and centimetres
- Type — open coil, pocket sprung, memory foam or hybrid — and the firmness
Slow, always. Expect weeks rather than days even when priced low, and expect enquiries that go quiet after the hygiene question. Clean, recent, protector-covered mattresses in common sizes are the ones that do sell.
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.
