Selling a car in Brisbane

Written safety certificates are required to transfer a registered vehicle in Queensland. Dealers handle that as part of the purchase, so it is not a job you need to do first. Payment is by bank transfer, and most sellers who accept an offer are paid within two to three business days. It is free, and there is no obligation at any stage.

Updated August 2026

Queensland runs its own used car cycle. Interstate wholesalers buy heavily out of Brisbane because southern retail prices often support paying more than a local yard would, and that competition shows up in the offers.

You submit once and buyers across Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan and both coasts price it, including the interstate buyers who arrange transport themselves.

What sells well in Brisbane

Four wheel drives, dual cab utes and anything tow rated sell hard. Convertibles and soft roaders do better here than in the southern states.

Do I need a roadworthy certificate to sell my car in Brisbane?

When you sell to a licensed dealer, compliance is generally handled on their side because they must meet it before they can retail the vehicle. Requirements for private sales differ by state and change from time to time, so confirm the current position with the QLD road authority. Your notice of disposal obligation stays with you either way.
