Hi All

I hope everyone is well.  I have a long shot question,  does anyone know the best place to sell a used greenhouse.  We have this one, which we no longer want.


Any advice is welcome.

    It's lovely! Most people seem to advertise online. Yours is made a bit more complicated by the very pretty walls. A buyer usually dismantles and removes the greenhouse and reassembles it in his own garden. I'm  not sure if it would be possible to do that with the brickwork.

    I agree - it's a beautiful greenhouse.
    eBay probably has the widest audience.
    I'd imagine Spring is the best time to advertise, 2nd best time is probably now.
    Hope you find a buyer 🤞

    PS - I think eBay still has Free-listing days, so maybe worth a try on one of those days.

    Another option would be nextdoor.com.  Sign up to the site in your local area.  You might find someone local interested, as not much travel. 

    I agree- how would brickwork work?  I assume they'd need to re- brick the entire base at their own home.

    Do you have a local freebie advertiser such as FridayAd?

    New brickwork would be a small price to pay for such a beautiful greenhouse. Hope you find a good home for it.

    Maybe contact your local allotment association or horticultural society?

    Usually around here it is "free to good home", with the new owner dismantling it themselves!

    It is a tiresome job dismantling one, and not breaking or losing some parts or glass!
