Brisbane workshops
Add your Brisbane workshop to AAPPI
Not on AAPPI yet? Submit your workshop details below. After a short verification call, your listing goes live and pre-paid pre-purchase inspection bookings start arriving.
Why add your workshop
Pre-paid bookings
AAPPI collects from the buyer at booking. By the time the car arrives, the inspection is paid for.
Less paperwork
Digital checklist on a tablet, photos attached automatically, PDF report generates itself. No Word docs.
A profile that ranks
Your AAPPI workshop page is built for SEO so buyers searching “{your workshop} pre-purchase inspection” find you.
Who should apply
AAPPI is built for honest, qualified workshops doing pre-purchase inspections at scale — not generic mechanic listings.
- Independent automotive workshops with at least one licensed Australian mechanic
- Mobile mechanics who can travel to a buyer or seller across greater Brisbane
- Multi-bay service centres that already perform pre-purchase inspections occasionally and want a steady booking source
- Workshops that take pride in honest reporting — pass / fail / advisory based on what's actually there
Requirements
Standard checks every AAPPI workshop completes before going live.
Trade qualifications
Licensed Australian mechanics on staff with current trade qualifications. We verify trade licence numbers during onboarding.
Insurance
Current public liability insurance with a certificate of currency. Standard workshop coverage.
Standard workshop equipment
Hoist (for in-shop inspections), OBD-II scanner, basic diagnostics. Mobile-only inspectors don't need the hoist but still need the diagnostic kit.
Honest reporting commitment
Pass / fail / advisory ratings reflect what the mechanic finds — not what helps the sale go through. AAPPI buyers depend on it.
