This guide shows exactly where to sell your old geyser fast and for the best price.

How much can you get for an old geyser in Mysuru?

Working storage 15–25L (2–5 years): ₹1,000–₹3,000

Working instant 1–6L (2–6 years): ₹600–₹1,500

Not working / scrap: ₹200–₹600

Best ways to sell old geyser in Mysuru

1. OLX — best for maximum price

OLX gets you the best price. List under Electronics & Appliances with clear photos and the brand and capacity in the title. Buyers across Vijayanagar, Kuvempunagar, Gokulam, Hebbal and Saraswathipuram browse regularly, and the cool winter keeps demand for working storage geysers healthy.

2. Quikr & local groups

Quikr adds reach, and Mysuru’s layout and society WhatsApp groups and area Facebook buy-sell pages (Jayalakshmipuram, Vidyaranyapuram, Bogadi) are excellent for quick local sales. Nearby buyers collect the unit themselves, so you skip shipping and get cash the same day.

3. Appliance dealers, plumbers & scrap

Second-hand appliance dealers and plumbers/electricians around Devaraja Market and Sayyaji Rao Road buy working geysers to refurbish and resell. A dead or leaking unit goes to a kabadiwala for scrap — but the copper element and inner tank carry metal value, so a dedicated scrap dealer often pays better.

4. Exchange when buying new

Upgrading? Croma and Reliance Digital stores in Mysuru run exchange offers, and brand service centres sometimes adjust the old unit. Amazon and Flipkart offer exchange discounts at checkout on new water heaters too, though OLX usually fetches more cash.

Tips for selling in Mysuru

Sell before winter: List in October–November before Mysuru’s cool season pushes geyser demand and prices up.
Mention capacity & brand: “25L Racold storage” or “3L instant” in the title helps Mysuru buyers find the right fit fast.
Get a plumber to uninstall safely: Have it disconnected and drained so buyers can inspect it intact and leak-free.
Dead tank has copper value: A non-working geyser’s copper element and tank fetch more at a metal scrap dealer than a generic kabadiwala rate.
