Frequently Asked Questions

How much and what can I send in?

As part of our service, you can send one large box up to 150cm × 150cm × 150cm and weighing no more than 30kg. Additional boxes are welcome, but extra courier charges may apply. A minimum of 5 items is required to use this free collection service. If you have fewer than 5 items, we’re still happy to accept them, but you’ll need to arrange and cover the courier costs.

We accept outdoor clothing and gear that’s in good condition or better and fully functional. If it’s something you’d expect to find at retailers like Cotswold Outdoor, or similar outdoor shops, it’s likely a great fit for Outdoor Revival.

When filling out our Collecting Request Form we will ask for a list of the items you plan to send. Each request is reviewed individually to determine whether the items are suitable for resale. We don’t want to disappoint you by accepting items we don’t believe we’ll be able to find a new home for. Some large campsite tents, furniture and gear can be difficult to ship so we can no longer accept some of these items.

If you’re unsure about an item, feel free to contact us at info@outdoorrevival.co.uk and we’ll be happy to help.

All your items will be stored securely and are fully insured against theft and damage.


How should I prepare my gear?

Before sending your items to us, please make sure everything is clean, dry, and in good working condition. We don’t expect items to look brand new, but they should be free from heavy dirt, strong odours, or obvious damage that would affect performance or resale. We do not test, clean, or prepare any items sent to us, so please ensure they are ready for their next adventure.

Fasten zips, empty all pockets, and if possible pack matching items together (for example, boots as a pair or a tent with its poles and pegs). If you have original stuff sacks, bags, or accessories, include those too - they can help your gear sell faster.

Taking a few minutes to prepare your items properly helps us photograph, list, and sell them more quickly, and ensures buyers receive gear they can trust.

Pack your items in a sturdy box no larger than 150cm × 150cm × 150cm and weighing no more than 30kg.


How long does it take to sell my gear?

Every item is different. Some pieces sell within days, while others may take a little longer depending on the brand, condition, season, and price. Popular brands and high-demand items tend to sell much quicker - for example, wild camping tents and ultralight gear typically move faster than campsite tents and furniture.

Once your gear is listed, we promote it through the Outdoor Revival marketplace and our marketing channels to give it the best chance of selling quickly. You can also adjust the price at any time to help speed things up if needed.


How much will I get paid?

You receive 95% of the item’s asking price. A 5% commission (minimum £2.99) is applied to each item sold. You do not receive the shipping cost as Outdoor Revival will be responsible for the shipping of all items and will be covered under our 'goods in transit' insurance.

When a buyer purchases your item, payment is collected immediately. The funds are held securely by Stripe until the buyer confirms they have received the item and it meets their expectations. Once confirmation is received, the funds are automatically released to the bank account you provided during sign up. It may take up to 7 days for the funds to appear in your account. If the buyer does not confirm receipt of their item, payment will be released automatically after 14 days. This is a legal requirement designed to give buyers sufficient time to raise a dispute if needed.


What happens if I want to amend the price or other details on the listing?

You can Login to your account to update or change any details on your listing.


What if my gear doesn't sell?

When you select the Doorstep to Trail service, you agree to have the items you send us listed on our platform for a minimum of 90 days (there is no maximum). If an item doesn’t sell, you can choose to either have it returned to you or donate it to a charity selected by us. At any time, you can:

Have the item(s) sent back: You can request that your item(s) be returned at any time. Please note that you will be responsible for all return shipping costs.

Donate the item(s): If an item(s) doesn’t sell, you can choose to donate it. We will select a suitable charity to receive your donation.
