Motorcycle Collection

When a motorcycle is ready to be sold, moving it can be an important part of the discussion. A running bike stored on a driveway presents different practical details from a non-running motorcycle in a garage or a machine with locked wheels. Sharing those details early helps explain what a proposed handover would involve.

Contact We Buy Motorcycles through Sell Motorbike to discuss assessment and motorcycle collection arrangements. Start with the make, model, year, running condition and actual storage location. Collection availability, timing and any applicable terms must be confirmed directly for the particular motorcycle and sale.

Discuss collection alongside the sale details

An enquiry about collection begins with the motorcycle itself. The bike's condition and purchase suitability need to be discussed before anyone assumes a sale or a pickup has been agreed. Explain whether you are asking about a potential purchase or following up on terms already discussed.

Include your suburb and postcode as well as any difference between your contact address and the bike's location. If the motorcycle is stored with another person, state who can provide access. Do not leave access arrangements until the last moment when they may affect whether a proposed handover can proceed.

Location and access information to provide

The purpose of the first enquiry is to explain the situation. You can provide more precise access details during direct contact, but mention any obvious restrictions from the start.

• Suburb and postcode where the motorcycle is physically stored.
• Whether it is on a driveway, in a garage or at another location.
• Whether the motorcycle rolls, steers and has usable brakes.
• Missing keys, locked wheels or other movement restrictions.
• Slopes, steps, narrow gates, low clearance or restricted access.
• Who is available to provide access and discuss the handover.
• Loose parts, luggage or accessories intended to accompany the bike.

Running and non-running motorcycles

A bike that can be moved normally

State whether the motorcycle starts and whether it can be moved at its storage location. Do not assume that running condition alone explains everything about access. A narrow entrance, an inaccessible parking space or a different person controlling the keys can still be relevant to the arrangements.

A bike with movement restrictions

Describe locked wheels, steering restrictions, missing parts or damage that prevents ordinary movement. If you are unsure what can be moved safely, say so. Details about the restrictions should be discussed before any collection is confirmed, rather than left for the handover itself.

Documents, keys and items included

Confirm which records and keys belong with the motorcycle, along with any accessories or removed components included in the sale. Keeping those items accounted for helps avoid confusion about what is changing hands. Mention missing documents or unresolved ownership circumstances during the purchase discussion.

Collection does not replace an agreement about the sale. Before the motorcycle changes hands, confirm the purchase terms, payment arrangements, relevant ownership paperwork and responsibility for any transport. This website does not establish a collection price, a fixed timeframe or automatic collection coverage for every address.

Confirm the practical arrangements before handover

If the motorcycle's condition or location changes after your enquiry, explain the change before confirming arrangements. A different address, removed component or new access restriction may alter the practical details that were previously discussed.

1. Describe the motorcycle and its location.

   Use the enquiry form to explain the bike's identity, condition and access situation. This provides a clear starting point for discussion.

2. Discuss whether a purchase can proceed.

   Clarify any missing information, ownership circumstances and the proposed sale terms. An initial enquiry is not a booking or an agreement to collect.

3. Confirm collection details directly.

   Where collection is agreed, confirm the address, access contact, timing and any applicable conditions. Ask questions about anything that remains unclear.

4. Prepare the items agreed for the sale.

   Account for the motorcycle, keys, records, accessories and separate parts. Confirm payment and documentation arrangements before the handover takes place.

Enquiries across our Australian service areas

Our listed service areas are Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Adelaide, Newcastle, Ballarat, Geelong, Canberra, Central Coast, Wollongong, Sunshine Coast and Toowoomba. Include your suburb and postcode rather than only the nearest major city. The bike's actual location matters when discussing any next step, particularly if it is stored at a different address from where you live.

You can submit the online enquiry outside telephone hours. If you prefer to talk through the details, call 0493 825 076 Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Tell us which bike you are contacting us about and whether there are circumstances that need explaining before a sale can be considered.

Send your motorcycle details

Use the enquiry form at the top of this page to enter your name, phone number, email, motorcycle make, model, year and running condition. The message field gives you room to explain kilometres, ownership history, modifications, damage, storage location and anything you are unsure about.

Start with the facts you have. If a document, date or diagnosis is missing, say so rather than guessing. Keep a copy of your enquiry details and confirm any proposed purchase, payment and handover arrangements directly before agreeing to proceed.
