Used cookers in Geelong typically sell for A$155 to A$670 (about $110 to $470). Read this part first: if it is a gas cooker, it must be disconnected by a qualified gas engineer, and that single fact shapes the whole sale.
Selling a cooker in Geelong
Geelong built its wealth on wool and then on car manufacturing, and the closure of the plant reshaped the city into a port, university and health town instead. It is the gateway to the surf coast, and close enough to Melbourne that a great many people commute.
Manufacturing decline left a deep pool of good tools in private hands, and the university turns student households over annually. Commuter families moving down from Melbourne add a steady stream of furniture in both directions.
On tools from a manufacturing background, ask their age and whether they ran daily. Ex-industrial equipment is often excellent value here but it has done far more hours than a domestic machine of the same year.
Geelong, in Victoria, has around 290,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Melbourne, Ballarat and Bendigo are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What cookers are worth
What lifts the price
- Complete with shelves, trays and grill pan
- Standard widths that fit common gaps
What pulls it down
- Missing shelves and grill pans
- Non-standard widths that fit few kitchens
Working out what yours is worth
- Test every hob zone
- Measure the width and state it clearly
Getting it ready
- Establish whether it is gas, electric or dual fuel, and arrange proper disconnection for anything on gas.
- Clean it thoroughly — oven interior, shelves, hob, and under the burners. Presentation moves the price here more than on almost any other appliance.

Put in the description
- Make, model and approximate age from the rating plate
- What has been tested and what works, including grill, timer and every ring
Fuel, type and width lead: “60cm Freestanding Electric Cooker, Double Oven, Fan Assisted” or “Range Cooker, Dual Fuel, 90cm”. Width is a hard constraint in a fitted kitchen, so it belongs in the title, and fuel type filters out the buyers who could never have used it.
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.

Common questions
Where can I sell a cooker in Geelong?
Put it on WishThrift free and deal with the buyer direct. The city is compact and driving is straightforward, and the rail line to Melbourne makes small handovers easy without a car. For anything large, the waterfront and the centre are easier to load from than the older inner streets.
Who disconnects it?
For gas, a qualified engineer must, and that is not negotiable. For electric, a hardwired cooker needs an electrician or a competent person to isolate it properly.
