Used tumble dryers in Montreal typically sell for C$130 to C$530 (about $94 to $375). Dryer values split sharply by type: heat pump models sell well above vented and condenser ones because of what they cost to run.
Selling a tumble dryer in Montreal
Montreal has the most distinctive moving culture in the country: a very large share of leases end on the same day at the start of July, and for about a week the entire city changes address at once. The second-hand market is built around that single date.
The July moving week produces a concentration of second-hand furniture that has no real equivalent elsewhere in Canada. Prices in the days either side of it are the lowest of the year, and the choice is at its widest.
Measure the outdoor staircase, not just the doorway. The spiral and half-turn stairs on many buildings here defeat sofas and mattresses that would fit anywhere else, and the seller may never have taken it out that way.
Montreal, in Quebec, 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. Quebec City, Laval and Gatineau are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Montreal
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.
What tumble dryers are worth
What lifts the price
- Heat pump models, which are far cheaper to run
- Recent purchase with proof of age
What pulls it down
- Vented models, which are the least wanted type
- Missing vent hose on vented machines
Working out what yours is worth
- Run a full cycle and check clothes actually come out dry
- Pull out and inspect the condenser and lint filters
Getting it ready
- Identify the type: vented, condenser or heat pump. This is the single biggest factor in what a buyer will pay.
- Clean the lint filter and, on a condenser or heat pump, the condenser unit itself — a blocked one looks like neglect.

Common questions
Where can I sell a tumble dryer in Montreal?
List it free here and arrange the handover with the buyer yourself. The outdoor staircases that front so many buildings here are narrow, steep and often spiral, and they defeat more furniture than anything else. Establish the stairs before the price, and remember that winter makes all of it considerably harder.
How old is it?
Give a year or an honest estimate. Buyers price the remaining life, and dryers over about eight years are a gamble they want to make knowingly.
