Our industry feels the impact of global market conditions—whether it’s oversupply, currency fluctuations, demand trends, or regional conflicts. Each of these factors affects product pricing. We monitor these influences closely and share updates openly with our sellers and customers.

Basic economics often drives product pricing. High demand with low supply typically leads to higher prices, while the reverse is also true.

Certain items fluctuate seasonally, like used toys, whose prices increase in late summer and early fall.

Location impacts price. Northern regions might favour heavier clothing, while proximity to ports or high-income areas can also elevate perceived quality and price.

Freight is key—our logistics team partners with freight forwarders and trucking companies to balance costs and pickup availability.

Direct donations or school drives often yield higher-quality goods, while bin collections vary by area. For example, high-end neighbourhoods may yield higher-value goods.

Reliable, high-yield products usually lead to higher prices. Consistent quality remains a top priority.

Proper packaging is crucial to maximizing the weight load. Capsacks and bales are the preferred options for textiles, while pallets, gaylords, and small bags are used for other secondhand items.

Maximizing load weight lowers freight costs per pound, which is crucial for graders, retailers and wholesalers.

The product’s destination can influence pricing due to currency fluctuations and the region’s stability.
