How to sell things for other people to upcycle?

I own a print shop. I have a lot of pieces of equipment that would be great to upcycle, but I don't have time and I don't know how to advertise them. For instance, two large light boxes and flashes off an industrial camera, an industrial fan, small dollies, etc.

Hi Chris a great place I always go looking for fun thing to upcycle is the Facebook marketplace and browse for things close to me. Another option is always Craigs list.
I think you'd have great success posting each item on Facebook marketplace. You can find buyers for anything there!
Advertise them on your local Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace.
you can set up an account on amazon where you can sell items also the facebookmarket place and a lot of areas have online yardsales
Look for sites online for free listings. Nextdoor and 5 Miles for example are for selling.
Take photos and put on facebook marketplace. That's probably the easiest way to do it. You can then accept venmo, paypal, or facebook pay and do a porch pick up so you don't even have to come in contact with buyers.
Do you have a flea market near by? Maybe you could set up shop for one weekend and ask other sellers if they want to pay for your inventory?
Honestly, I think FB Marketplace is easiest. You won't have to worry about shipping. There are even services like Jack Rabbit that your buyers can contract with to come and pick up the items if they want. And you can do curbside.
Hello I would recommend Craigslist or Facebook marketplace.
Facebook Marketplace is the place to sell large items.
Am always the odd one out. Not on Facebook. I use local free advertising avenues in my area. No shipping costs and curbside pick up. Or meet at the local Police Department or Sheriff's Station. Choice of payment is up to you, I only deal in cash.
If you decide to donate them instead and take the donation credit on your taxes, consider a local vocational school that might come pick them up.
Seth is correct when my dad passed away we made many many trips to Goodwill. They are more then happy to give you a receipt where I filled in the values (which have to be realistic).
Facebook marketplace!
Hubby has an account on Nextdoor where he browses.
Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist would be the easiest
Hi Chris, advertise on facebook marketplace, ask small fee or nothing, the free stuff moves very fast!
