Selling a skirt in Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh was the steel capital of the country and rebuilt itself around universities, medicine and robotics after the mills closed. It sits at the confluence of three rivers on very steep hills, crossed by more bridges than any other city in the world.
Steel-era closures left heavy workshop tooling in private hands, and two large universities clear student housing each May. The century-old housing on the slopes carries genuinely old furniture with it.
The hills and the bridges make routes far longer than the map suggests, and many houses are reached by public stairways rather than roads. Establish the approach before agreeing to anything heavy.
Many houses here are reached by public stairways rather than by road. Establish how many steps there are between the item and a vehicle before you agree a price on anything heavy.
Pittsburgh, in Pennsylvania, has around 300,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Philadelphia, New York and Los Angeles are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Pittsburgh
