Selling a cot in Maryborough
Maryborough is a heritage river town with a great deal of nineteenth-century building stock still standing, and the traditional raised timber houses of the region are common here. That housing shapes what furniture suits and what does not, and older pieces circulate more than they do in newer towns.
Older housing stock changes hands with its contents more often than newer suburbs do, so genuinely old furniture appears here regularly. River flooding also forces periodic replacement of ground-floor contents.
The town is small and flat and everything is a short drive. Raised houses mean a flight of external stairs on a great many properties, so ask about access before agreeing to collect anything heavy.
Maryborough, in Queensland, has around 27,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What cots are worth
What lifts the price
- Solid wood construction with no splits
- Adjustable base heights working properly
What pulls it down
- Missing fittings, which make reassembly impossible
- Older cots not meeting current spacing standards
Working out what yours is worth
- Check the bar spacing and safety label
- Inspect the top rails for bite damage and splinters
Getting it ready
- Find or download the assembly instructions, and gather every bolt, allen key and fixing. A cot missing fixings is close to unsellable.
- Measure the mattress size it takes, since buyers need to know whether their existing mattress fits.

- Whether all fixings and the instructions are present
Type and mattress size: “Solid Pine Cot Bed with Mattress, 140x70cm”. A cot bed converts to a toddler bed and is worth more than a plain cot, so make the distinction clear. State whether a mattress is included, because that is a significant part of the value.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
