0.000 HBDCheck Out What People WASTE & I SAVE - Free Upcycling Income - Strolling Around For Free Strollers
I just sold another perfectly fine baby stroller I found on the curbs by my apt, so I thought I'd show some examples of what I've saved from being crushed in a garbage truck -- and passed on to families who need them! I find a lot of high-end strollers. If they're not in perfect condition, I sell them online for parts. For example, the frame may have a crack in it, or the brakes don't work, but everything else is perfect. This is a strong income stream for me. Parts make a lot of money. When strollers are appropriate to sell for cash on Craigslist, I list them and they move fast. People are happy to get a good deal, or a same day solution when they're in a bind. The most important thing to me is the pride I get in saving these from being wasted to help the environment, others and myself at the same time. It's a triple win. People either want to or talk about helping, or they take action and help. Everyone can make an impact if they choose to. ### Here are just SOME complete strollers I've sold for cash, usually in the $75-$350 range: ### City Mini Baby Jogger #1  ### City Mini Baby Jogger #2  ### Yes, City Mini Baby Jogger #3  ### Yessss, City Mini Baby Jogger #4  ### Bugaboo Cameleon 3 - got $350 cash for this one to someone living two blocks away. Found three buildings from my doorstep. Easy.  ### Maclaren Triumph  ### Maclaren Triumph Twin  ### Maclaren Volo  ### Maclaren Major Elite Stroller  ### UPPAbaby G-Luxe (very common)  ### Maxi Cosi Stroller Taxi  ### Peg Perego Pliko  ### Let's not leave the pets out with a Burley Tail Wagon DOG Stroller/Bike Trailer. The woman was thrilled to get this for her dog at the beach that day. I found on the curb nearby with a note saying "trash" on it.  ---------- ### Here's a recent example of when I take a complete stroller apart and sell it online for much more. These were initial estimates. Most sold for more. I find countless strollers to sell as parts. ### https://steemitimages.com/DQmPhY4pXJPUSsx6C7TegG4groCDn4dSFmkijtGdZ3qaepP/IMG_0876.jpg ------- ### Sometimes I take larger accessories or parts that I prefer not to ship and try to sell them for cash ### ### Bugaboo Cameleon Chassis With Wheels  ### City Mini Baby Jogger Second Seat  ### Britax Stroller Ride On Board  I've sold hundreds of stroller parts sales. Many parts go for $30, $50, $75, $100+, etc., ALONE because they're from discontinued models. These are just a few for ideas and inspiration. Parts Ideas: - Front Wheels - Rear Wheels - Canopies - Seat Cover(s) - Undercarriages - Belly Bars - Car Seat Adapters (can be big $ for small parts) - Seat Straps - Frames/Chassis - Seat Frames - Bassinets - Brake Mechanisms - Spring Loaded Release Systems - Locking Mechanisms - Etc... Most importantly, I make sure I test and inspect everything to make sure that everything is safe. I also clean (rubbing alcohol does wonders), hand wash the fabrics, and oil things as needed. I also find a ton of car seats and their adapters I'll post another time. Thanks for reading. Don't be shy to share this post if you feel it'd help others. @steemmatt
