Examples of the machinery that SOLD at the auction

The excitement of the occasion has long been an attraction to sell and buy at auction, as well as the knowledge that on the fall of the hammer, a contract is secured.

Our auctioneers are all valuers and our local knowledge is invaluable in assessing not only the market but also the equipment and detail necessary to make the day a success. Many of our auctions are run simultaneously on-line, to ensure we capture as wide an audience as possible.

We adapt to manage small sales as well as large ones, and work with clients to enable the best possible outcome, from turning the idea of a small personal sale into a collective sale by drawing in other equipment from the locality or making a single seller auction a sucess in its own right.

It is vital to plan a sale with every eventuality in mind, from weather to car parking, and we spend as much time as necessary to organise the process.

The process includes:

• Valuation of equipment for sale purchase or for tax purposes
• Advice on the most appropriate method of sale
• Advice about the location and timing for the sale
• Advice about the site and how to conduct the sale
• Management of the auction day to ensure the best possible outcome
• Effective collection and prompt distribution of sale proceeds
