Return Hubby Mattress Crafters
The free resale kit

Sell your mattress yourself and keep every dollar

This free kit helps you sell your mattress on Facebook Marketplace. You do the selling and keep the money, and this page gives you the listing, the price and the steps.

What the kit is. A ready to paste listing for your exact mattress, a starting price, seven simple steps, photo and safety tips and a printable PDF. It is there to help you sell the mattress yourself.

What we do not do. We do not list, sell, collect or buy the mattress for you.

Your refund. Once you sell the mattress, your 120 night trial ends for it and it can no longer be refunded. We can only refund a mattress we collect or one you dispose of through the Return Hub, otherwise anyone could buy our mattresses, sell them on and get a full refund as well.

Try it for a week first. Many customers list it for a week and compare the offers with a return. A pickup refunds 100 percent of the mattress price less the $250 pickup fee, so if an offer beats that, selling is the better deal. If not, take the listing down and pick another option in the Return Hub while you are inside your 120 nights.

Your other options. Book a pickup for the $250 fee and get 100 percent of the mattress price back. Or take it to your local tip, or cut through the cover and foam so it can not be slept on again, film it and upload the video in the returns portal for 100 percent of the mattress price back with no fee. We need the video because without it someone could claim a refund and keep sleeping on the mattress.

Worth checking before you book a pickup

Compare selling with a return

A pickup return refunds 100 percent of the mattress price, and there is a flat $250 pickup fee. Selling costs nothing, and on our lower priced models it can put more in your pocket. Put in what you paid and see both side by side.

Return it: refund after the $250 pickup fee$0
Sell it: a realistic asking price$0
Sell it: money in hand even if you take an offer$0

Asking price guidance is roughly 45 percent of what you paid, which is where clean, lightly used name brand mattresses tend to move within days on Marketplace. Your mattress, your price, so ask more if it is near new.

The whole process

Seven steps to sold

1

Dress the bed

Put fresh sheets on, make the bed properly and open the curtains. A made bed in daylight photographs like a bed someone wants, a bare mattress against a wall photographs like a problem.

2

Take five photos

One straight on from the foot of the bed, one from each side, one close up of the label so buyers can see the brand and model, and one of the mattress stripped to show it is clean and stain free.

3

Copy your listing from this page

The generator below writes the title and description for your exact model, including the details buyers ask about anyway: size, firmness, age, and why you are selling.

4

Price it to move

Start at about 45 percent of what you paid, rounded to a friendly number. Marketplace buyers expect to haggle, so build in a little room and decide your walk away number before anyone messages.

5

Post it on Facebook Marketplace

Open the Facebook app, tap Marketplace, tap Sell, choose Item, add your photos, paste the title and description, set the price and your suburb, and tap Publish. It is live to your whole region in under five minutes.

6

Answer with one message

Reply to every enquiry with the same line: it is available, pickup only from your suburb, cash or bank transfer on handover. Serious buyers confirm a time, everyone else disappears, and that is the filter working.

7

Hand it over safely

Daytime pickup, another adult home with you, money received before the mattress leaves the door. Most buyers bring a ute or trailer, so you never lift anything further than the driveway.

Small things that speed up the sale

Photo and safety tips

Photos that sell

  • Shoot in daylight with the room lights on as well
  • A made bed for the hero shot, then the stripped mattress to prove condition
  • Get the brand label sharp and readable, it does half your selling
  • Wipe the frame and clear the floor, clutter in frame reads as neglect
  • Hold the phone level with the mattress, not looking down at it

Selling safely

  • Pickup only, from your driveway or garage if you prefer not to have strangers inside
  • Daytime handovers, with another adult home
  • Cash on handover, or watch the bank transfer land before it leaves
  • Never hold an item for a stranger who promises to come later, first confirmed time wins
  • Ignore any buyer who wants to overpay you or pay through a link, that is always a scam

Selling and your refund. Once you sell your mattress, your 120 night trial ends for it and it can no longer be refunded. Tell buyers plainly that it is a used mattress, keep it clean and stain free, and hand over the care instructions if you still have them. The 15 year warranty covers manufacturing defects for the original purchaser and does not transfer with a private sale. If you are unsure whether selling or returning suits you better, run your numbers through the calculator above or email us at info@mattresscrafters.com.au.
