Used greenhouses in Perth, Western Australia typically sell for A$115 to A$765 (about $81 to $540). Greenhouses are worth good money and are genuinely dangerous to dismantle — older ones are glazed with horticultural glass that breaks into blades, and the buyer needs telling before they arrive.
Selling a greenhouse in Perth
The resources industry brings people in on contracts and takes them out again, and a worker leaving at the end of a contract usually sells a whole household rather than shipping it. Those clear-outs are where the best-value listings come from.
Almost everything is collected by car and the city is built for it, so distance matters less here than in the eastern capitals. The coastal suburbs run a long way north and south, and it is worth naming a suburb rather than saying Perth.
Because freight from the east is slow and expensive, check that any spare parts you might need are available locally before buying something unusual. It is the difference between a bargain and a project.
Perth, in Western Australia, has around 2.1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Bunbury, Geraldton and Busselton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Perth
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 greenhouses are worth
What lifts the price
- Aluminium frames with no corrosion or twisting
- Complete with door, vents and all fixings
What pulls it down
- Broken and missing panes
- Missing glazing clips, which are needed in quantity
Working out what yours is worth
- Count the panes and note how many are broken or missing
- Bag every glazing clip and fixing before dismantling
Getting it ready
- Establish what the glazing is: horticultural glass, toughened glass or polycarbonate. They dismantle very differently and the risk is not the same.
- Count the panes and note any that are cracked or missing, and check the aluminium frame for bent sections.
