Second-hand Home & Living Items in Kenya
Buying and selling home & living items on Juuhudi
Second-hand home and living items can help you furnish, organise and personalise a space without purchasing every detail new. Browse mirrors, lamps, curtains, rugs, kitchenware, storage pieces and decorative objects offered by people across Kenya. Start with your room measurements, colour palette and practical needs, then compare listings based on condition, material, size and location. Ask for exact dimensions and close photographs when scale or wear is difficult to judge, particularly for curtains, rugs, mirrors and fragile pieces. For electrical items, arrange to test them before paying; for kitchenware, check surfaces, handles and food-contact areas carefully. Local listings can make inspection and collection easier, while grouped purchases may reduce the effort required to set up a room. Juuhudi gives you a place to discover useful household pieces and ask sellers questions before agreeing on collection, delivery or payment arrangements. This gives you more confidence before making room in your home.
When your home changes, well-kept household items do not have to become waste or permanent storage. Choose the pieces that are clean, functional and worth another person's time, then photograph them in good light without distracting clutter. Add accurate dimensions, materials, colours, quantities and condition notes, and disclose chips, stains, cracks, missing parts or electrical problems. A descriptive title such as “pair of lined grey curtains” helps the right buyer understand the offer more quickly than “home item for sale.” For sets, show every piece and state whether you will separate them. Research comparable listings before setting a price, and explain whether an item is fragile, bulky or collection only. Buyers can message you through Juuhudi while your phone number remains off the public listing. Package small or breakable items carefully, agree on logistics clearly and remove or update the listing as soon as it is sold.
