Buying from a Leeds seller, or selling from Pudsey
If you are in Pudsey and bought something elsewhere, send the listing, the seller's address and a time they are in. The item is checked against the photos before it is loaded, and if something is wrong you get a call before any money changes hands.
If the seller is in Pudsey and the buyer is not, the same rules apply in reverse. Sellers in older terraces should remember that the item has to leave through the front door, so if it went in with the legs off or in pieces, it will need the same treatment going out. Existing flat-pack can be taken apart for the journey and rebuilt at the buyer's home. Business sellers on Grangefield Industrial Estate clearing desks or racking usually have a loading door, which makes those straightforward collections.
What to send for a Marketplace pickup in Pudsey
- The listing link or screenshots, so the item can be checked against them on arrival
- Both postcodes and the seller's name and phone number
- If the seller is on a terrace off Lowtown or Robin Lane, ask whether the piece is upstairs or in the cellar, since it can only leave by the front door
- Measurements of the item and your front door, especially for sofas and wardrobes
- For a business seller at Grangefield, ask which unit it is and when the shutter is up, so the van is not waiting in the yard

Marketplace Collection in Pudsey: your questions
Can you pay the seller for me?
Pay the seller yourself; the item is checked first and you confirm you are happy before it is loaded.
What if the item is not as described?
You get a call with photos before anything is loaded or paid for, and you decide whether to go ahead.
Can you collect from a Pudsey seller for a buyer in another town?
Yes. Send both addresses and the listing, and a fixed price comes back for the run.
How soon can you collect?
Tell us when the seller needs it gone. It can sometimes be the same day when the diary allows, so it helps to book as soon as you have agreed the sale.
