The answer is yes, but how do you go about selling your used utility, garden or storage sheds? Who would want to buy a used storage shed, and how do you decide what to charge when listing your used storage shed for sale? Read along, and I’ll show you how to sell your old shed, who you can sell them to, and how much you can make selling your old used shed.

Here’s a boring stat that can actually help you make a little more money for your used sheds.The person most likely to buy a used utility shed is a male, between the ages of 42 and 59, he makes $50,000 plus per year, and most of his children are out of the house. These marketing numbers came from Quantcast.com, and are for a website called UsedShed.com.

With the information above, you should be able to find places to advertise your shed where it will catch the attention of men over 49. Try advertising your used shed for sale anywhere older guys hang out, and in local publications that they like to read. I like to advertise locally, since It doesn’t make any sense to advertise a used shed for sale in Washington, in a Boston newspaper.

I would start by advertising in local papers in the home and garden section. I know that as a 45 year old male, I love sitting at the local coffee shop, or over Breakfast, and reading the weekly Nickel, or the local classifieds. These types of classified ads are going to be the best way to sell your used shed.

Using Craig’s List would be another good way to sell your old garden shed. Craig’s List has sections for every statel has classified ads for every state, some metro areas, and local regions, if you don’t fall into a metro area. By listing your used shed on Craig’s List, in the Home and Garden section, you should be able to sell your shed quickly to someone in your local community.

The last thing is, what do you charge for your storage shed? The rule of thumb is half the purchase price, but it varies depending on the age, type and condition of the shed in question. This is especially true when talking about wooden garden type utility sheds. Wooden sheds weigh a ton, and they are going to be a pain to move, especially if they are old and falling apart. If you have a wooden shed that you want to sell, make sure that you make the price low enough to peak someone’s interest, or you won’t be able to sell it.
