Bulldozers and tractors in Australia: prices and what to ask

Updated 4 November 2026

Approximately, according to sellers' websites in November 2026, a new 45 HP compact tractor in Australia lists at A$23,990 to A$25,990, and a compact tractor with a loader at about A$55,550. Used track dozers start from roughly A$35,600 for a mid-size model and pass A$120,000 for large ones. To get current prices for your machine and city, describe it on BlaBlaPrice.

Rules to check before you buy

Warranties differ widely between makers. Listings show cover of 12 months or 1,000 hours, 36 months or 2,000 hours, and one five-year tractor warranty. Australian consumer guidance says most agricultural warranties last around 12 months, so ask which hours count and who may service the machine. Some warranties can be voided by servicing done by the owner rather than a trained technician, so keep every service record. Driving a tractor on public roads in Western Australia is covered by separate orders, permits and pilots, so check your state's road rules before delivery.

Season and timing

Summer runs from December to February and winter from June to August, and the season shapes how a machine is used. Summer heat means early starts, which makes cab air-conditioning, offered on some compact tractors, a real comfort. In winter, daylight hours are shorter, so agree delivery dates early. Buying in November gives you time to take delivery before the hottest weeks of summer.

How machines are bought and delivered

Prices are quoted in Australian dollars, and listings give engine power in horsepower and warranty limits in hours, so compare machines on HP and hours rather than on price alone. Ask the seller to price delivery to your city separately. The distance between cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide can add a large freight cost to a machine of this size, so a seller close to your site may be the better offer.

What to put in your request

Say whether you want to buy or rent, and name the machine type, such as a compact tractor or a track dozer. Add the model if you know it, the year, the engine hours and the condition. Describe the scope of work and the city where the machine will be used, and give your budget. If you rent, state the lease term. With these details, sellers can reply with a price that fits your job.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe the machine in your own words in a free chat, and you can add a photo. BlaBlaPrice reads the request, asks for missing details, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Australia, and shows the prices and businesses it finds. Sellers registered on the site reply in the chat with their own offer, price and terms, while your contact details stay hidden until you choose to share them. You can also send the request link to local sellers yourself. For related machines, see heavy equipment and excavators.
