Yard sales can provide you with a great way to find a swing set like this for sale, but it’s always going to be hit or miss with something like this. If you’re the type of person who loves to go yard sale surfing, however, there’s no reason why you can’t check out as many as you like to find the products you’re looking for. Just keep in mind that you may have to wait a while to find a metal swing set for sale, and even if you do, it may not be in the condition you want!

Craigslist is hit or miss the same way yard sales are, but you can always post a wanted ad on Craigslist if you’re looking for a specific product like a metal swing set. Of course, you still may not get any takers, and it really depends on the place where you live. It goes without saying, but if you live in a busier city, chances are good you’re going to find the products you want sooner than you would if you live out in the middle of nowhere. If you’re willing to travel, you may have better luck.

When you buy a big product on eBay, the biggest issue is going to be the shipping. Most sellers are not willing or able to send something as big as a swing set, but eBay also offers a local pickup option for anyone in the area. For something like a swing set, you’ll probably have the least luck using eBay, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a viable option at all. Just remember that it’s probably going to be a last resort and that you may or may not ever find what you’re looking for here.

As opposed to eBay, Facebook is probably one of the best options for looking for a metal swing set. You can join local sales groups and see what people in your area are selling. You can also post wanted ads here and people can share them with other groups, so you’re more likely to reach people quickly with an ad on Facebook than you would just about anywhere else. Chances are good you’ll find someone selling the type of product you want here—and if not, you’ll find someone who knows someone else who is looking to sell a metal swing set instead.

Last but not least, you never know when a specialty forum will have the metal swing set of your dreams. These types of forums are out there, but they can be hard to find. A “treasure hunting” forum that focuses on yard sales, garage sales, and flea markets is a great place to get started, as people tend to post information about good finds or leads they may know about in any given area. Of course, you might prefer to find a group that focuses on something more local to you, or you might even find a forum focused on metal swing sets entirely! Mommy forums are also a great option for this type of find, too.

Conclusion

Did you find a great place to pick up your new swing set? As you can see, there are a lot of options out there, and you should be able to find a good used product when you’re patient and check out a lot of venues.

But remember that there are some safety concerns with a metal swing set like this, too. What should you do to make these swing sets safe for your kids?

The most important thing to keep in mind is that you should anchor this set to the ground for maximum safety. Use stakes, sandbags, or—better yet—concrete around the legs.

You can also sand down any sharp metal edges at the seams for more safety.

Keep all this in mind and your kids will be safe and sound playing on their new swing set!
