Move Loot

Move Loot was a company and online marketplace for the buying and selling of secondhand (used) furniture. Move Loot was headquartered in San Francisco, CA. Move Loot served the following markets: San Francisco Bay Area, New York, New York, Los Angeles, California, Raleigh, North Carolina, Durham, North Carolina, Charlotte, North Carolina and Atlanta, Georgia.

Overview
Users submitted photos of their goods online for appraisal, and the company then managed aspects of the selling, shipping and installation process. The company assessed furniture prior to posting it, and had minimum standards for style and quality. Move Loot earned 50% of the selling price when items were sold. Part of the company's business paradigm was for less furniture to be sent to landfills and to increase the length of time furniture was used.
