Example chest freezer listing

Frigidaire 14.8 Cu. Ft. Chest Freezer

Frigidaire chest freezer with two baskets and drain. It held freezing temperature during a 24-hour check. Interior is clean; surface rust near one hinge is pictured. Garage pickup with buyer-provided dolly and help.

Replace every detail with facts you verified. Never reuse a model, measurement, test result, or condition claim that does not apply to your item.

Plan a safe, clear handoff

State whether it must travel upright and whether the buyer needs a truck, dolly, and help lifting from a basement or garage.

Meet in an appropriate location, keep payment terms clear, and do not make unsupported safety or working-condition claims.

Chest Freezer selling questions

How much should I ask for chest freezer?

Start with comparable local listings for the same or closest model, then adjust for capacity, age, and energy use, verified freezing performance, condition of seal, baskets, and exterior. ListNestly's Price Advisor can help organize those confirmed factors without claiming a live market average.

What photos should I take of chest freezer?

Include exterior from all sides, clean interior, baskets, drain, and lid seal, thermostat, plug, and model plate. Add clear close-ups of every defect rather than relying on a vague condition label.

What problems should I disclose?

Disclose anything known or observed, especially worn lid seal or excessive frost and compressor noise or weak freezing. Say exactly what you checked and identify anything you did not test.

What information belongs in the listing?

Include cubic-foot capacity and dimensions, temperature check performed, defrost method and drain, plus honest pickup or delivery expectations.

Should I offer delivery?

Offer delivery only if you can do it safely and describe the fee, distance, unloading help, and timing clearly. State whether it must travel upright and whether the buyer needs a truck, dolly, and help lifting from a basement or garage.
