Listing availability, expiry and renewal

Keep public inventory accurate by confirming availability and closing ads that are no longer current.

Availability checks

Local Ads may ask sellers to confirm that an older listing remains available. This keeps search results useful and reduces enquiries about items that have already sold.

What to do

  • Confirm the listing if it remains accurate and available.
  • Edit the price or description if circumstances changed.
  • Mark it unavailable or remove it when the item is sold.
  • Do not create repeated duplicates to keep an old listing visible.

Common questions

Why did my listing disappear from public results?

It may have expired, been closed, require an availability confirmation or be under review. Check My listings for its current status.

Can I restore an expired listing?

Where renewal is available, open the listing in your account, confirm the details and use the available renewal action.
