Sell your catering equipment for free

Replacing an oven, clearing a store room or closing a kitchen? Put the equipment you no longer need in front of people looking for catering kit. Standard listings are free. You choose the price and agree the sale with the buyer.

Add photographs to each item afterwards.

Your equipment. Your asking price.

Good equipment deserves another chapter.

Free standard listings

Create an advert without buying a promotion. Be clear about the price, condition and what is included.

One item or a stock list

Use the listing form, Excel or CSV. Add genuine item photographs before submitting for review.

Your conversation to manage

Speak directly with buyers. Arrange inspection, equipment payment and delivery between yourselves.

One item or a kitchen full

List commercial ovens, fridges, freezers, dishwashers, coffee machines, food preparation equipment and other catering kit in the right category. You can advertise individual items or a clearly described job lot. Choose the condition that fits, from new and refurbished to used-working or spares-repair. Describe any fault or missing part openly; equipment that is prohibited, recalled or unsafe to advertise is not allowed.

Start with a seller account

Create an account, choose Private seller or Business / dealer as appropriate, and verify your email address. For a few items, the listing form is the simplest place to start. Give each item a recognisable title with its brand and model, add a price and explain whether VAT is included, added or not applicable. You can save a draft while you gather the details.

Show buyers what they are getting

Photograph the actual item, its rating plate, accessories and any damage. Include the condition, measurements and power supply, and explain what is included in the price. A clear description of service history or a known fault is more useful than calling everything “excellent”. At least one genuine photograph is required before a native listing can be approved. Listings are reviewed before publication.

Have several items? Use a spreadsheet

Download the upload template, enter one item per row and upload the Excel (.xlsx) file or a UTF-8 CSV from your account. The site checks the rows and shows you any corrections before you apply the upload. Keep a unique, stable reference for each item so later uploads can update it. Add genuine photographs through each listing afterwards; the spreadsheet does not download photos from web addresses. New and changed items are saved for review.

Set a price you can explain

Consider the equipment’s age, condition, accessories and service history when setting your asking price. Be clear whether the price is for one item or the whole lot, and whether you are open to offers. If it needs repair, say what you know and what has not been tested. Buyers can ask questions through the listing before deciding whether to arrange an inspection.

Agree payment and collection directly

Messages arrive in your account so you can discuss the equipment with the buyer. Confirm the agreed price, payment arrangements and collection or delivery details in writing. Mention stairs, loading access, lifting requirements and any disconnection needed. Catering Equipment Market provides the listing and enquiry tools; it does not take payment for the equipment or provide buyer protection.

Can I advertise it elsewhere too?

Yes. You can keep the same equipment advertised on your own website, Facebook, eBay or another marketplace. Keep the description and availability accurate, and mark the listing sold or pause it here when it is no longer available. There is no need to promise a buyer an item that has already gone.

What does a standard listing cost?

Creating a standard equipment listing is free. You do not need to buy a paid promotion to create a standard listing. You remain responsible for your own sale arrangements and any collection, delivery or other costs agreed with the buyer.

A few things worth knowing

Questions before you get started?

Who am I buying from?
The independent seller named on the listing. Catering Equipment Market provides the listing and enquiry tools; it does not process equipment payments or provide buyer protection.
Can I advertise equipment elsewhere too?
Yes. Keep your adverts accurate and mark an item sold or pause it here when it is no longer available.
Do spreadsheet uploads include photographs?
No. The Excel or CSV upload prepares the details. Add genuine photographs to each item afterwards; the importer does not download images from web addresses.
Who arranges collection or delivery?
The buyer and seller agree this directly. Confirm any charges, loading access and disconnection requirements before committing.
