How Peddling Post makes selling in Birmingham easy

We all have that chair, antique mirror or mystery storage-bin item we keep meaning to list online. And yet—there it sits. Anyone else’s eyes immediately drift to their designated “stuff to sell” corner?

Situations like this are exactly what led Rashel Post to launch Peddling Post in 2019.

When her youngest son was diagnosed with severe autism, her nine-to-five corporate job was no longer possible. Needing to figure out a new career, she did what many people in Birmingham do when times get tough—slipped on her entrepreneur hat and created something new from the ground up that worked around her real-life demands.

“My original thought for Peddling Post was simple: help people sell their unwanted valuables.”

And it worked. What started as a way to create more flexibility for her family quickly grew into a thriving local business built on making a complicated process feel easy.

Great question! Whether you’re clearing out an entire home or just have a few select pieces you’d like to sell, Peddling Post helps you figure out the smartest way to go about it.

  • Have a full house to empty? They can help coordinate an in-person estate sale.
  • Need to sell just a few items? They’ll photograph, research and list them across 100+ online selling platforms.
  • Decided whether to sell, donate or toss? They’ll help you decide.

To get started, all you have to do is reach out to Peddling Post through their website, and their team takes it from there. They’ll schedule a time to evaluate your items, handle pricing, create listings and manage buyer messages, offers and negotiations. This means no pricing guesswork, no awkward marketplace meetups and no inbox full of “is this still available?”

Once your items sell, you get paid!

For items that don’t sell—no worries. Peddling Post helps coordinate the next step, whether that’s donation or another solution, so nothing gets left hanging.
