Sell your books in Dexter

Before you give your books away, let us look. We pay cash for books in Dexter, pick them up for free, and take nearly everything except magazines.

Free pickup services take your books for nothing. We pay you for them, and the pickup is still free.

Dexter is just up the Huron River from Ann Arbor, northwest of town and close to our office on Jackson Rd. It’s a river town with a long memory, home to the Dexter Cider Mill, with older homes near downtown and newer neighborhoods spreading out around it.

Dexter collections often lean outdoors: fishing, hunting, birds, rivers and Michigan travel, alongside the usual mix of fiction and family books. Because Dexter is close to us, small collections are welcome too.

What we look for in Dexter libraries

  • Fishing, hunting, birding and outdoor guides, especially older ones
  • Michigan and Great Lakes history and travel
  • Huron River and local history material
  • First editions of popular fiction with their dust jackets

How it works

  1. Send a few photos through the offer form, or just tell us roughly how many books you have.
  2. We reply the same day with a free value check and, if it fits, a time to come out.
  3. We look through everything and make a cash offer, explained book by book if you like.
  4. We pack and haul it all, for free.
