Used strollers in Australia typically sell for A$77 to A$480 (about $54 to $335). Strollers sell on fold size and weight, because the buyer is thinking about a car boot, a bus or an aircraft cabin — so give both figures.

Selling a stroller in Australia
Bank transfer via PayID is instant and is what most private buyers will offer. Cash on collection remains common for larger items.
Australia’s second-hand market is strongly local and strongly seasonal, with most activity concentrated in the eastern capitals and buyers who expect to collect.
WishThrift has not opened Australia for trading yet, so this page is a guide rather than a live marketplace — the category becomes browsable here the moment the first Australian sellers list.
Seasons are inverted relative to the UK and North America: warm-weather items move from September, and winter gear from around May.
Working out what yours is worth
- Fold and unfold it several times to check the mechanism
- Spin each wheel and check for play in the axle
Getting it ready
- Fold and unfold several times to confirm the latch works, and test the brake on a slope.
- Wash the fabrics if removable and check the harness, wheels and recline mechanism.

Put in the description
- Brand, model, and weight in kilograms
- Folded dimensions, and whether it is cabin-approved
- Whether it folds one-handed, and the recline positions available
Brand, model and fold type: “Babyzen YOYO2 Stroller, Cabin Size Fold, 6.2kg”. Cabin-approved folds are a deliberate search worth real money. Put the weight in the title — parents carrying a stroller up stairs care about it a great deal.
Steady demand all year. Compact and cabin-approved models from recognised brands sell within days; bulky older strollers move slowly.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the A$479 a buyer pays is the A$479 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Common questions
Where can I sell a stroller in Australia?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. Bank transfer via PayID is instant and is what most private buyers will offer. Cash on collection remains common for larger items.
How small does it fold?
Give the folded dimensions in centimetres. Buyers are measuring against a specific boot or overhead locker.
What do buyers check first on a used stroller?
The fold mechanism and the wheels. A stroller that sticks when folding is the most common complaint, so demonstrate it works.
Should I wash the fabrics before selling?
Yes. Most stroller fabrics are removable and machine washable, and a clean stroller sells noticeably faster.
