List your overrun in two minutes

STEP 01

List your overrun in two minutes

Snap a photo on your phone. Add a title, price, and trade category. Set pickup, delivery, or both - and you're live. Most listings take under two minutes, start to finish. Do it from the ute while the concrete's still wet.

  • Timber, steel, cable, conduit, plumbing fittings, roofing, tiles, pavers - anything left over from a job
  • Photo upload straight from your camera roll
  • Set a fixed price or mark as negotiable
  • Choose pickup at your site, a buyer-arranged courier, or delivery if you're heading that way
The right buyers find you

STEP 02

The right buyers find you

Buyers search by keyword, browse by trade category, and filter by suburb, postcode, or state. Your listing shows up for tradies looking for exactly what you have - in their area, at a price that makes sense. No algorithm guessing; they're searching for what you've listed.

  • Search by keyword or browse by category
  • Filter by suburb, state, or postcode
  • Category browsing by trade - electrical, plumbing, structural, and more
  • Sort by newest or price
Message, deal, and get paid

STEP 03

Message, deal, and get paid

Members on a Tradie or Crew plan message each other directly - no middleman, no platform holding your money, no waiting for funds to clear. Agree on the price, sort out pickup or delivery through the chat, and confirm your payment method before the buyer arrives. Cash on pickup is the norm; bank transfer works too. You keep 100% of what you sell for. Overrun's only fee is the flat monthly membership - nothing comes off the sale.

  • Direct in-app messaging between members on a Tradie or Crew plan
  • Pickup at your site, or the buyer arranges their own courier
  • Payment direct between buyer and seller - cash, bank transfer, whatever suits
  • 0% commission on any sale, ever - just the flat membership fee

How fast will it sell? Depends on what you've got and where you are. In-demand materials in a metro area can move within days. Niche items or regional listings take longer. Clear photos and a fair price do most of the work.
