Used suitcases in Laval typically sell for C$47 to C$225 (about $34 to $160). Single suitcases sell steadily because people replace them one at a time, and wheel condition drives the price.
Selling a suitcase in Laval
Laval is a large suburban city immediately north of Montreal, with family housing, high car ownership and a predominantly French-speaking population. Household goods and children’s equipment make up most of what moves.
The July moving date that dominates Montreal reaches here too, though less intensely. Family households upgrading and downsizing produce a steadier supply through the rest of the year.
On garden furniture and anything stored outdoors, check for winter damage. Snow load and freeze-thaw split frames and perish fabric far faster than a few summers of use would.
Laval, in Quebec, has around 440,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Montreal, Quebec City and Gatineau are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Laval
Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.
