We buy cars all over Hervey Bay
Hervey Bay is a relaxed place to live, but a private car sale here is anything but. You list the car, answer scam messages and wait in for buyers who want a test drive along the Esplanade. Then you need to be sure the payment is genuine before you hand over the keys.
Sell your car to us and skip that. We are a licensed NSW motor dealer (MD 077404) buying cars Australia-wide, the Fraser Coast included. We can buy your car in Pialba, Scarness, Torquay or Urangan, inland in Urraween and Kawungan, or out at Craignish and Dundowran Beach. We buy cars in Toogoom, Burrum Heads and River Heads, and we also buy cars in Maryborough, Bundaberg and Gympie.
The cars we buy in Hervey Bay
This is caravan and beach country. Plenty of people here drive a tow vehicle, a 4WD set up for K’gari, or both. We buy your Ford Ranger, Toyota HiLux, Prado or LandCruiser. We buy the comfortable everyday cars too, from SUVs like the Mazda CX-5 to sedans like the Toyota Camry. See what we look for in utes and 4WDs and SUVs.
We are buying cars, utes, SUVs and 4WDs from 2021 or newer with 100,000 km or less. Older or higher kilometres? Send it through anyway and we will tell you straight away if we can help.
Selling a car in Hervey Bay without the hassle
Finished the big lap, swapping two cars for one, or simply ready for a change? A valuer who has priced cars since 1992 makes you a genuine offer by phone, not an online estimate. Once you accept, we pay a deposit, often the same day. The inspection happens at a time and place that suits you. The balance is paid into your bank account, and the car is collected only after you confirm the funds have cleared. How it works walks through each step.
Still under finance? We deal with your lender directly and pay you any equity. Read about selling a car under finance. Weighing up a trade-in? See selling instead of trading in.
Paperwork in Queensland
In Queensland the seller starts the transfer. TMR says you must transfer the registration within 14 days of the sale, and the seller pays no fee. The buyer pays the transfer fee and vehicle registration duty. Until the transfer goes through, you remain liable for tolls and fines. When you sell to us, we prepare the sale paperwork and help with the transfer. Read our guides to selling a car in Queensland and selling a car in Australia.

Selling a car in Queensland
The practical side, so nothing catches you out. Rules change from time to time, so we confirm what applies to your car on the call.
- Registration authority
- Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR)
- Transfer of ownership
- In Queensland the seller starts the transfer. TMR says that after you sell, you must transfer the registration within 14 days, and the seller pays no fee. The buyer pays the transfer fee and vehicle registration duty. Until the transfer goes through, you remain liable for tolls and fines on a car still registered in your name. When you sell to us, we prepare the sale paperwork and help with the transfer, so your part is done correctly.
- Safety certificate
- Usually not. Queensland's version of a roadworthy is the safety certificate, and a private buyer of a registered car is owed a current one. TMR exempts cars traded to licensed motor dealers, so when you sell to a licensed dealer the private-sale rule usually does not apply. We confirm what applies to your car on the call.
- Good to know
- Vehicle registration duty, Queensland's stamp duty on cars, is the buyer's cost, not yours. Compulsory third party (CTP) insurance is bundled with your Queensland rego. If you pay the rego by direct debit, TMR says to remove it so no payment comes out after you have sold the car.
What to have ready
- Photo ID
- Registration papers
- Service logbook and receipts for any recent work
- Loan details, if the car is under finance
- Bank account details for your payment
We prepare the sale paperwork and help with the transfer of ownership, so you do not have to chase forms.

Real sellers, quoted in their own words.
Within 10 minutes of my enquiry I was contacted by Dean. It all happened in less than an hour from the initial enquiry. I had a deposit in my bank account that night.
“Dean communicated with me at every stage, from the preliminary enquiry to getting the vehicle inspected to the settlement and organising pick up.”
Chris Mercedes-Benz GLE 300 d “We truly appreciated your streamlined service and the fact that you delivered on your word.”

Selling your car in Hervey Bay: your questions
Straight answers. If yours is not here, call us and ask.
1800 73 55 73Do you buy cars in Urangan, Pialba and Point Vernon?
Yes. We buy cars all over Hervey Bay, from Point Vernon, Pialba and Scarness to Torquay, Urangan, Eli Waters and Kawungan. We also buy cars in Toogoom, Burrum Heads and River Heads, and down the road in Maryborough. The inspection happens at a time and place that suits you.
How does collection work from Hervey Bay?
Once you accept the offer, we pay a deposit, often the same day. The inspection happens at a time and place that suits you, and the balance is paid into your bank account. We arrange collection only after you confirm the funds have cleared, so the car stays in your driveway until you are paid.
Do I need a safety certificate to sell my car in Hervey Bay?
Usually not. Queensland's version of a roadworthy is the safety certificate, and a private buyer of a registered car is owed a current one. TMR exempts cars traded to licensed motor dealers, so when you sell to a licensed dealer the private-sale rule usually does not apply. We confirm what applies to your car on the call.
Will you buy a 4WD that has been driven on K'gari?
Yes, send it through. Beach driving is part of life on the Fraser Coast, and sand and salt water are hard on underbodies, brakes and bearings. Tell us on the call about any rust, recent servicing and what is fitted, such as recovery gear, a snorkel, a lift kit or a fridge setup. An honest description helps us make an offer on the 4WD you actually have.
What cars are you buying right now?
We are buying cars, utes, SUVs and 4WDs built in 2021 or later with 100,000 km or less. Any make is welcome, and we have strong demand for European and prestige models, dual-cab utes and family SUVs. If your car sits just outside that, send it through anyway and we will tell you straight away whether we can help.
When do I get paid?
Once we agree on a price, we can often pay a deposit the same day. After an inspection, the balance is paid into your bank account by bank transfer. The car is collected only after you confirm the funds have cleared, so you are never left without the car and without the money.
Can I sell my car if I still owe money on it?
Yes. We deal with your lender directly to pay out the loan, then pay you any equity left over. Cars under finance usually take 2 to 3 business days to settle. If you owe more than the car is worth, the difference has to be covered before settlement, and we show you the numbers before you decide.
