Need to sell your car quickly? Whether you’re moving interstate, facing unexpected bills, upgrading to a new vehicle, or simply want that old car gone today, sometimes speed is the priority.
This guide covers the fastest ways to sell your car in Brisbane, what to avoid if you’re in a hurry, and how to get cash in hand within hours rather than weeks.
The Reality of Selling a Car Quickly
Let’s be honest about your options. The method you choose involves trade-offs between speed, convenience, and money:
Private Sale (Slowest)
Selling privately through Gumtree or Facebook Marketplace might get you the highest price, but it takes time. You need to take photos, write ads, respond to enquiries, arrange inspections, deal with no-shows, negotiate, and handle paperwork. Realistically, this takes weeks to months.
Dealer Trade-In (Medium Speed)
Trading in at a dealership is faster than a private sale but requires you to be buying another car from them. You’ll typically get less than market value, and it still takes a day or two to finalise.
Cash for Cars Service (Fastest)
This is the fastest option. Call in the morning, get a quote in minutes, and have your car removed with cash in hand by the afternoon. No advertising, no strangers, no waiting.

7 Tips for Selling Your Car Fast
1. Have Your Documents Ready
Nothing slows down a sale like missing paperwork. Before you start, locate your photo ID and registration papers (proof of ownership). If you’ve lost them, contact Queensland Transport or the buyer to discuss options.
2. Know Your Car’s Condition
Be prepared to accurately describe your vehicle. Know the make, model, year, approximate kilometres, and any issues (mechanical problems, body damage, missing parts). Accurate descriptions lead to accurate quotes and faster sales.
3. Be Realistic About Price
If speed is your priority, accept that you may not get top dollar. A quick, guaranteed sale at a fair price is often worth more than waiting months for the “perfect” buyer who may never come.
4. Remove Personal Belongings First
Before any buyer arrives, clear out your personal items. Check the glovebox, under seats, boot, and door pockets. This speeds up the handover and prevents awkward moments.
5. Ensure Access to the Vehicle
If your car is in a locked garage, behind a gate, or in a tight spot, make sure you can provide access. Tow trucks need room to load. Clear access means faster pickup.
6. Be Available and Flexible
The more flexible you are with timing, the faster your sale. If you can be available at short notice, you may get same-day pickup.
7. Choose the Right Buyer
For speed, choose a buyer who offers same-day service, handles paperwork, provides free removal, and pays immediately. Avoid anyone who wants to “think about it” or pay later.
What to Avoid When Selling Quickly
Don’t Spend Money on Repairs
If you’re selling for cash quickly, don’t invest in repairs. The cost rarely increases your sale price proportionally. Sell as-is to a buyer who accepts any condition.
Don’t Accept “Pay Later” Arrangements
Only deal with buyers who pay immediately. Promises to pay later often lead to complications. Cash for cars services pay on the spot.
Don’t Ignore Red Flags
Be wary of buyers who quote high over the phone then drop the price significantly when they arrive. Reputable services give honest quotes upfront.
