Machinery Auction Experts Launch One Day Event

Used plant and equipment specialist www.mrmachinery.com has announced its next online auction will be open to bids for just a single day.

Mr Machinery's usual events run for three days, but its upcoming reserved auction on Tuesday 6th September will be a one day special to help speed up the entire buying and selling process, with bids able to be lodged between 0800 hours (GMT) and 1600 hours.

A broad range of high-quality used plant and construction equipment will be available on the day, from cranes, excavators, and forklifts, through to trucks, trailers, and drilling equipment. Items up for sale at the auction have been sourced from not just the UK and Ireland, but from Romania, Poland, and Belgium too.

Mark Bacon, Managing Director of Mr Machinery, commented: "Our special one day auction should really speed up the entire process, which is positive news for both buyers and sellers. I’d urge any construction companies in need of high-quality used equipment to register for free at www.mrmachinery.com to see a full list of items up for sale, complete with in-depth inspection reports.

"And any company with surplus plant can take advantage of our free valuation service, where by simply uploading an image of their machine and adding a few basic details – such as the serial number and the year it was manufactured – they’ll get an assessment from our team of experts on the item’s potential value at auction."
