Used cots in Orange typically sell for A$77 to A$385 (about $54 to $270). Cots sell well because they are bulky to buy new and used only briefly, but buyers check one thing first: whether every fixing and instruction is present so they can rebuild it safely.
Selling a cot in Orange
Orange sits high enough to have genuine cold winters and occasional snow, which makes it cool-climate wine and apple country, and there is a large gold mine on its doorstep. That gives it both an agricultural economy and a mining payroll, which is an unusual combination.
Mine rosters bring households in and out on contract cycles, while the surrounding orchards and vineyards run on a seasonal workforce. Cold-weather clothing moves here on a genuine seasonal cycle rather than a fashion one.
Driving is easy and the centre is compact. Winter here is real rather than nominal, so for anything being collected in the colder months it is worth agreeing a daylight time.
Orange, in New South Wales, has around 42,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Sydney, Newcastle and Wollongong are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Orange
Seasons are inverted relative to the UK and North America: warm-weather items move from September, and winter gear from around May.

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
- Bite marks and splintering along the top rails
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
- 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 all fixings and the instructions are present
Steady all year. Cot beds sell faster than plain cots because they last longer, and solid wood outsells board.
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.
