2dehands Car Scraper — Belgian car listings, prices and dealers

2dehands is the largest classifieds site in Belgium, with around 100,000 live car listings from dealers and private sellers. This Actor turns the car listings into a clean table: what the car is, what it costs, and who is selling it.

Press Start. The defaults return listings with no configuration needed.

Each row has 24 columns and most carry 22 of them, because 2dehands does not fill in every detail: in a 100-row sample the engine size was there 21 times and the engine power 6. Every row also has source_site and scraped_at. About one listing in six is a van or light commercial vehicle, which 2dehands files under cars. Where a dealer is identified, the identity comes with the row — no second request and no extra charge.

Read this part before you buy: a seller is named only when 2dehands itself labels the listing as a business. That was 18 in 100 rows on a sample run, and 14 in 100 the day before, so expect it to move. 2dehands leaves most sellers unlabelled, and an unlabelled seller is treated as a private person: seller_name, seller_url, dealer_id and seller_type all come back empty. seller_url needs a labelled dealer who also lists a website, which no row in that sample had. Some of those unlabelled sellers really are dealers, and this Actor will not guess — a profile picture or a website in a profile is not proof of a business, and guessing would mean publishing private people's names. You still get the car, the price and the city on every row. Phone numbers, email addresses and sellers' descriptions are never collected, for anyone.

What people use it for

Price monitoring, where you re-run a saved search on a schedule and watch a segment of the Belgian market move. Research on the labelled dealers, where the seller fields matter as much as the cars. And feeding a comparison or valuation tool that needs Belgian market data it cannot get from an official API.

Input

Field	What it does
searchTerms	Makes to filter by. Leave empty for everything.
postedAfter	Only keep listings posted on or after this date (ISO 8601). 2dehands shows dates by day, so this filter works by day. Handy for daily runs that should return just what is new.
maxItems	Hard stop, so your bill is predictable.
proxyConfiguration	Off by default. Most runs do not need one.

There is no location input. 2dehands only offers distance filtering through an internal endpoint that its robots.txt asks crawlers not to use, and this Actor respects that. If you pass a location anyway, the run stops and tells you, rather than quietly returning the whole country and charging you for it. Filter by city in your own pipeline instead.

Pricing

$3.00 per 1,000 listings, dropping to $1.50 per 1,000 on higher Apify plans, plus $0.005 each time a run starts. There is no separate charge for dealer details, and platform usage is not passed on to you.

You are charged for rows you actually receive. If you set a maximum charge for the run, it stops cleanly at that limit instead of overshooting it.

Scope and limits

Public listings only. Nothing behind a login.

2dehands' listing pages are not strictly sorted by date, so postedAfter checks two full pages of older listings before it stops, to avoid missing new ones that sit behind promoted ads.

If 2dehands changes its page structure, the run goes red. It does not return zero rows and report success — a silent scraper is worse than a broken one, because you find out weeks later.

A run that is blocked or cut short partway also goes red, even though the rows it did collect are in the dataset and yours to keep. Red here means "this is not the complete answer", not "you lost the data" — on a schedule, a run that quietly came back short is the thing you most need to hear about.

Every run also publishes the site's own result count next to the rows it delivered, so you can see "60 rows of 9,969 the site reports" without going back to the site to check. That number is what the site says, not a promise about what one run returns.

Same data, other countries

This Actor shares its output shape with the Marktplaats Car Scraper (Netherlands), the Otomoto Scraper (Poland) and the Standvirtual Scraper (Portugal). A parser you write for one keeps working on the others, and on the countries added next.
