Used mattresses in Sharjah typically sell for AED 150 to AED 990 (about $40 to $270). Be realistic about this one: used mattresses are the hardest item in the home to sell, and a great many listings never find a buyer at any price.
Selling a mattress in Sharjah
Sharjah is the most affordable of the northern emirates to live in and a large share of its residents commute into Dubai, which makes it a family and household market rather than a luxury one. Practical goods move here: white goods, children’s things and furniture that has to last.
Families move between the northern emirates far more often than they leave the country entirely, usually chasing rent, so goods here tend to circulate locally rather than being dumped by someone leaving for good.
The commute into Dubai shapes the day, so most handovers get arranged for evenings or the weekend rather than the middle of a working day. Collection by car is the norm and parking around the residential blocks is generally straightforward.
Sharjah has around 1.8 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Kalba, Khor Fakkan and Dubai are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Sharjah
Domestic courier coverage is quick and cheap by international standards, and most of the population is within a short drive of everyone else.
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
- Unknown age or history
- Any suggestion of pests, which ends the sale entirely
Working out what yours is worth
- Strip it and photograph the bare surface in daylight
- Lie on it and check for a visible dip
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 second side, also bare, because buyers assume you photographed the better one
- The fire safety label and any make or model tag
Put in the description
- Type — open coil, pocket sprung, memory foam or hybrid — and the firmness
- Approximate age, and whether it has always had a protector on it
State size, type and age: “Double Pocket Sprung Mattress, 3 Years Old, No Stains”. Age is the unusual case where volunteering it helps, because a buyer’s first assumption about a used mattress is that it is older than it is. Memory foam, pocket sprung and open coil are all real searches.
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.
