Kijiji – currently Canada’s most popular online classified advertising service – has released it’s 2016 Second-Hand Economy Index. In it, Kijiji revealed some interesting observations about how Canadians acquire and dispose of used goods, and more importantly, how this practice impacts the Canadian economy.
You can read the full report here, however, I’ve created some infographics to highlight some of the interesting findings.

Nice graphics.
It’s funny that, personally, I almost exactly fit the “average” in terms of how I source 2nd hand goods. This year I will step it up, as I have almost and entire basement worth of stuff to sell!
Thank you! Me too, I guess average isn’t that bad …lol!
Makes a great argument to invest in the Second Hand Business industry.
Great article!
It does! Thanks Clarence!
