Moving date around the corner? Need to unload lots of stuff quickly so you can get to packing? Whether you just want to make a fresh new start or looking to downsize, there’s no better chance to make some extra money than with mobile apps. Growing in popularity over the last few years, marketplace apps make it easy to post and sell your items locally. Before contacting moving and storage companies in Hayward for an estimate, you may want to sell your items!
One of the most used marketplace apps is Letgo. Easy to use, fast, and most importantly, free, Letgo helps sellers connect with local buyers. All you have to do is upload a picture of what you want to sell, via the app, without the need to add a title to your post. Once someone contacts you, you can chat instantly and privately.
As one of the leading moving and storage companies in Hayward, we often recommend 5miles, an app launched back in 2014. Yet another widely popular app for buying and selling, all that’s needed is to upload a photo of what you want to sell, along with a short description of the item. Connecting you specifically with people in your area via geolocation, your personal information is kept confidential while users can post feedback and ratings.
Poshmark is by far one of the biggest social marketplace apps for fashionistas. If you have way too many clothes, definitely consider using Poshmark to post photos of your jeans, tops, dresses, accessories, and other items. With a unique approach to selling, this app requires you to take a ‘covershot’ of your item, using filters to create a polished look. Once your item is sold, Poshmark will send you a pre-addressed, pre-paid label. Affix it to your package and drop it in the mail, or have it picked up by the letter carrier.
Of course, Facebook is one of the quickest, easiest ways to connect with local people to sell or buy. Use this popular social networking platform to post on Marketplace or a Buy and Sell group in your area. In both cases, you’ll need to post a photo and short description, then potential buyers can contact you directly on the post or through the Messenger system.
