Selling a cot in Kalgoorlie
Kalgoorlie is the gold town of the desert interior, built around one of the largest open pits in the world, and it has been mining continuously for well over a century. A large part of the workforce flies in and out rather than living here, and the heat and dust are constants.
Mining rosters govern the whole market. Households are set up for a contract and cleared when it ends, and a downturn puts a great deal onto the market at once. Heat and dust also shorten the life of anything mechanical, so equipment turns over faster than elsewhere.
Driving is the only option and the town is laid out on a grid, which makes meeting simple. Roster weeks matter more than hours here, so establish when the seller is actually in town before anything else.
Kalgoorlie, in Western Australia, has around 30,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Perth, Bunbury and Geraldton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Kalgoorlie

What cots are worth
What lifts the price
- All fittings, bolts and instructions present
- Adjustable base heights working properly
What pulls it down

Working out what yours is worth
- Bag every bolt and fitting with the cot when dismantling
- Check the bar spacing and safety label
Getting it ready
- Check the mattress base and the slats for cracks, and confirm the drop-side or height adjustment still locks properly.
- Measure the mattress size it takes, since buyers need to know whether their existing mattress fits.

Put in the description
- Cot or cot bed, and the mattress size in centimetres
- Whether a mattress is included, and its age and condition
Dismantle it before collection if you can, and keep the fixings in a labelled bag taped to a rail. That single step makes the handover smooth and is the sort of thing buyers remember when they rate you.
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.
