Selling a freezer in Lismore
Lismore sits in the Northern Rivers on a floodplain and was hit by catastrophic flooding in 2022 that reshaped the town. It has a long-standing alternative and creative culture, and a second-hand and repair economy that was well established here long before it became fashionable elsewhere.
Agree whether the item is in a part of town that floods, and check access if rain is forecast. Otherwise the town is small and driving is easy.
Ask directly whether the item was in the 2022 flood or any since. It is an ordinary question in this town rather than a rude one, and honest sellers will say so without being pushed.
Lismore, in New South Wales, has around 28,000 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 Lismore
Australia is a pre-launch market, so it is worth saying what a seller here should expect when it does open. Distance dominates everything: interstate parcels cost several times a metro delivery, and bulky items effectively only sell within a city. Most trade concentrates in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, and buyers in those cities expect to collect rather than wait. Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, so listings that follow UK or US timing arrive exactly half a year out of step — warm weather items want September, not March, and winter gear moves from around May.

What freezers are worth
What lifts the price
- Intact seals and working lid or door catch
- All baskets and drawers present
What pulls it down
- Heavy ice build-up on frost-free models, indicating a fault
- Compressors that run without reaching temperature
Working out what yours is worth
- Run it and confirm it reaches and holds temperature
- Check the seal and lid catch
Getting it ready
- Defrost it completely, dry it out and leave the door ajar so it does not develop a smell before collection.
- Check every drawer and flap for cracks, and note the model and capacity from the rating plate inside.
Photograph
- The interior with the door open, defrosted and dry, drawers visible
- The door seal all the way round, plus any dent, rust patch or cracked drawer
Put in the description
- Type — chest, upright, under counter or integrated — and whether frost free
- That it has been run and holds temperature, plus the state of the seal and drawers
Type and capacity lead: “Under Counter Freezer, 4 Star, 85L” or “Tall Frost Free Freezer, 6 Drawer, 60cm Wide”. Frost free is a genuine search, and so is chest versus upright, because they suit completely different spaces.
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.
