Selling a car in Brisbane

Queensland is one of the few states where you legally must hand the buyer a current safety certificate before selling a registered car privately, and with fines over $700 plus the cost of the inspection and any repairs, that alone kills many private sales in Brisbane. Add the local reality that after the 2011 and 2022 floods and regular summer hailstorms, Brisbane buyers are unusually suspicious, running PPSR and written-off checks and haggling hard over any water or hail history, and because greater Brisbane sprawls from Caboolture to Beenleigh, every inspection means someone driving an hour across town, often for nothing. Selling to us solves all three: no private-sale safety certificate to organise, we buy flood, hail and accident-damaged cars on their merits, and we come to you with same-day payment.

Selling a car in Brisbane: your questions answered

Do I need a safety certificate (RWC) to sell my car in Brisbane?

Only for private sales, Queensland law requires you to give a private buyer a current safety certificate before handing over a registered car, with fines over $700 if you don't. Selling to a car-buying business means there's no private-sale certificate for you to organise, saving the inspection fee and any repairs needed to pass.

Who handles the rego transfer with TMR when I sell?

We handle the transfer paperwork on the spot. You simply keep your copy and lodge your notice of disposal with Transport and Main Roads online, which protects you from any fines or tolls the moment the car leaves your driveway.

My car has flood or hail damage, can I still sell it?

Yes. Brisbane's flood and storm history means private buyers run a PPSR check and walk away from anything with water or hail damage, but we buy flood-affected, hail-damaged and even written-off cars and price them on what they're genuinely worth.

Can I sell a car in Brisbane with finance still owing?

Yes. It's one of the most common situations we handle. We confirm the payout figure with your lender, settle the loan directly, and pay any remaining balance straight to you the same day.

Do you buy unregistered cars in Brisbane?

Yes, and unregistered vehicles don't need a safety certificate in Queensland, so there's nothing to organise. We collect it for free from anywhere in greater Brisbane even if it hasn't moved in years.

How quickly can you pick up my car, and which areas do you cover?

Usually the same day. We cover all of greater Brisbane including the Northside, Southside, Logan, Ipswich, Moreton Bay, Redcliffe and the Redlands, with payment in your account before the car is driven or towed away.
