Craigslist Scraper — Listings, Prices, Locations & Details

Scrape Craigslist listings from any city and any section: for sale, cars & trucks, housing, apartments, jobs, gigs, services and more. Get title, price, location and map coordinates fast, or switch on detailed mode for the full description, structured attributes, dates and every photo.

Great for price research (used cars, furniture, electronics), rental market analysis, arbitrage and lead generation.

Why this one

• Any area, any category: sfbay, newyork, losangeles, london... with your keywords and price range.
• Structured attributes in detailed mode: for cars you get year, makemodel, odometer, condition, fuel, transmission, title status, even vin when listed.
• Coordinates (latitude/longitude) for mapping.
• Two price levels: cheap fast mode from search results, or detailed mode.
• Paste any Craigslist search URL if you already have your filters set.

Limits

Craigslist shows up to a few hundred results per search. For more, split by area, price range or keywords.

How much does it cost?

You pay only for results delivered, at a fixed price per item. Apify platform usage is included in that price, so there are no compute costs on top. Errors and items that couldn't be found are free.

What you get	Price	Example
Listing (detailed)	$0.002 each	1,000 listing (detailed)s = $2.00
Listing (search results)	$0.0005 each	1,000 listing (search results)s = $0.50

The Apify Free plan includes $5 of monthly credit, enough for about 2,500 listing (detailed)s per month at no cost. You can also set a maximum spend per run.

On paid Apify plans it gets cheaper automatically: 10% off on Starter, 20% on Scale and 30% on Business.
