The easiest way to buy and sell used furniture
We built a peer-to-peer marketplace tailored for used furniture. Our platform handles everything from discovery to sale, including scheduling pickup and delivery and processing payments securely. This takes the hassle out of buying and selling bulky furniture items locally.
We live in New York, NY and AptDeco is based here. After YC, we would continue to operate from New York.
New York has a large market of people who frequently buy and sell furniture, especially renters and city dwellers. It's also where we live and can iterate quickly with real users nearby.
