Selling a second hand stairlift? Whether you’re moving home, upgrading to a new model, or simply clearing space, there’s reliable options available for turning your unwanted stairlift into cash.
At UK Stairlifts, we understand the process can feel overwhelming.. That’s why we offer a simple and hassle-free stairlift selling service. We work closely with trusted partners to give you the best possible deal.
Can You Sell a Used Stairlift?
While stairlifts are often custom-fitted, many straight stairlifts—and some curved models—can be removed and resold. Their value depends on their age, condition, and brand, and whether they can be reused.
Not all buyers accept all second hand stairlifts, and private selling can be slow and uncertain.

What Affects the Value of a Used Stairlift?
Several factors influence the resale value of your stairlift:
-
Make and model – Popular or newer models tend to retain more value.
-
Type – Straight stairlifts are easier to resell than curved ones.
-
Condition – A well-maintained stairlift with minimal wear is more attractive to buyers.
-
Age – Most stairlifts over 7–10 years old have limited resale potential, but we may still remove them for parts or recycling.
Even if your stairlift isn’t eligible for resale, we can usually arrange removal and responsible disposal, so you’re not left with the hassle.
