Sell Your Used Veterinary Equipment
Welcome to the other half of our series on buying and selling your used equipment on usedvetequipment.com.
If you’re looking to sell some of your equipment, you’re not alone. There are many reasons why you might pursue this option as a veterinarian…
Maybe that new in-house chemistry analyzer or the extra kennels you purchased didn’t get used as much as you expected—and you’re not seeing the return on investment you wanted…
Maybe you want to upgrade, but you aren’t sure what to do with your current equipment. Or, maybe times are tight and you need to increase your cashflow.
Whatever your reason, selling your used veterinary equipment can put some cash in your pocket, while also helping out a fellow member of the veterinary community who needs the machine, gadget, or gear you’re selling.
If that sounds great to you and you’re ready to get started, we recommend visiting usedvetequipment.com. Here’s why…
List Anything! Whether you’re looking to sell an ophthalmoscope, an autoclave, an x-ray processor, or a vehicle… there’s no item too large or too small.
Set Your Own Price. You choose how much you’d like to sell for, and you can accept or reject any offer that comes your way.
We’re Here to Help. We’ve done this thousand of times—so no matter what you need to ship, we can help you with logistics and also ensure prompt payment from your buyer.
Since this is a community-based platform, you’ll find interactions to be secure, reliable, and honest.
Affordable. There’s no cost to you to list your equipment (including unlimited photos and videos to showcase your items), and no time limit in which to sell.
Good for Animals and the Environment. Reusing and repurposing equipment is not only a great way for the veterinary community to share resources to improve animal care everywhere—but it can also help keep materials out of landfills.
Stellar Service. Just check the site, and you’ll find reviews from tons of happy buyers and sellers! Like this one below…

Selling is simple on usedvetequipment.com. But, we also have some tips to help you get the most success out of your listing.
For the most success when you sell your equipment, be sure to include…
Pictures! You can include as many pictures as you’d like to on your listing, and video if that will help to show your item.
Images will help your equipment sell—and most smartphones are perfectly capable of producing the high-quality photos you need.
Try photographing from different angles, cleaning the items before you take pictures, and removing any distracting clutter from your shot so the focus is solely on the equipment you’re selling.
Detailed Descriptions. Include all relevant details about the brand name, manufacture date, current condition, size and weight, the reason for selling, etc.
Also, let potential buyers know how the item has helped you in your daily practice—and how it can help them.
A Smart Pricing Strategy. Sometimes, pricing used equipment appropriately can be difficult—you know there will be some depreciation, but what’s a fair price?
The easiest way to get a starting point is to research similar items that have recently sold.
And, if you’re hoping to sell fast—it helps to go a little under the going rate or to include shipping in your price.
And that’s it! Once your equipment is listed on usedvetequipment.com, you can easily connect with colleagues who are interested in buying.
With each sale, that’s money you can invest back into your practice for expanding, upgrading, marketing, or compensating your amazing team members.
Plus, you’d be helping out a fellow practitioner in the veterinary community—someone who really wants the equipment you don’t need anymore. It’s a win-win for both of you.
Good luck, and happy selling!
