Furniture & Appliance Flipping: Profit from Items People Give Away
Anyone who can spot undervalued furniture and appliances and arrange collection can resell them for profit on local marketplaces.
Furniture and appliance flipping works on a simple principle: you acquire items for free or very cheaply from platforms like Gumtree or Facebook Marketplace, arrange transport and any basic repairs, then sell them at a profit. The core added value is logistics โ most free-item sellers have no van and no time, and you remove that barrier. Beginners should expect a longer turnaround from acquisition to sale and treat early deals primarily as market research for their own costs.
Every day people discard perfectly functional furniture and appliances simply because they can't be bothered with collection or selling. Free listings on Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace appear daily โ you just need to pick them up.
๐Source stock at zero or minimal cost
Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace carry dozens of free or near-free furniture and appliance listings every day. Owners simply want the items gone quickly.
