Every day, sellers in your area list thousands of items as "collection only" — sofas, fridges, bikes, anything too bulky or fragile to ship. PickupPal is the fastest way to find them near you.
Enter your UK postcode, choose how far you'll travel (5 to 100 miles), and see only listings the seller has marked as buyer-collects. No items that also offer postage. No scrolling through irrelevant out-of-area results. The whole point is local.
KEY FEATURES
• True collection-only filter — every result is buyer-collects only, never items that also ship.
• Distance-based search with 5, 10, 25, 50, or 100 mile radius.
• Sort by ending soonest, nearest, or price.
• Live auction countdowns and end-time displays.
• Multi-photo gallery for every listing.
• Tap-through opens directly in the eBay app or Safari.
• Light, dark, and system themes.
WHY IT EXISTS
Marketplace search filters for "Local Pickup" tend to quietly include items that ALSO offer postage — items the seller would prefer to ship.
For anyone furnishing a flat, clearing a garage, project-hunting a bicycle, or who just prefers a 10-minute drive over a 3-day delivery, this is the eBay companion built around that use case.
PRIVACY
PickupPal has no servers and no user accounts. Your postcode is stored only on your device and sent to eBay's public search API as a query parameter — nothing else. There are zero third-party SDKs: no advertising, no analytics, no crash reporting, no tracking, no IDFA. The privacy policy is short because there's almost nothing to disclose.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Results appear immediately after you enter your postcode — no signup walls, no tutorials. Each card shows the title, price, distance, photos, and the buying options the seller enabled (Auction, Buy It Now, Best Offer). Tap a card for the full detail with multi-photo gallery and a "View on eBay" button.
