Used play kitchens in Gloucester typically sell for £20 to £100 (about $27 to $135). Play kitchens are big, bought by parents in a hurry, and sold on two things — whether it is wooden or plastic, and whether the accessories are included.
Selling a play kitchen in Gloucester
Gloucester has a cathedral with cloisters familiar from film, a set of Victorian docks that have been converted into housing and museums, and a rugby club at the centre of local identity. It sits on the Severn with the Cotswold escarpment behind.
Ground-level storage near the river is worth asking about directly, because the Severn floods often enough here that it is an ordinary question rather than an accusation. The aerospace employers out towards the escarpment move engineers on contract, which puts well-kept tools and home-office kit onto the market in a steady trickle.
A great deal of the dock housing is converted Victorian warehouse, which means listed staircases, tight turns on the half-landings and no lift in buildings four storeys high. Ask which floor and whether the stairs turn before agreeing to move furniture; out in the suburbs none of that applies.
Gloucester, in England, has around 132,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. London, Birmingham and Leeds are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

- Any sticker damage, chipped paint or missing knob, close up
Put in the description
- Material — wood, plastic or a mix
- Whether lights and sounds work, and whether it dismantles for transport
Collection is normal, dismantled if possible. If you take it apart, bag the fixings and tape them to a panel — a kitchen delivered without its screws is a bad afternoon for a parent.
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.
