Timed online auctions run by the dealer that has bought, sold and appraised this machinery since 1991 — from single surplus lines to complete plant closures. Registration is free.
From a single surplus line to a complete plant closure, we manage the entire auction process end to end — handling the logistics, generating buyer demand, and working to secure the strongest possible return with minimal disruption to your operation. With 30+ years in food processing equipment and a proven global network of buyers, every sale we run is well-managed, well-marketed, and aligned with your goals.
We are an active equipment dealer as well as an auction house, so our valuations are grounded in live transaction data — not guesswork. Our sales team already knows who is buying, what they will pay, and how to position your assets for the strongest possible return.
Our database holds tens of thousands of qualified contacts across the food and processing industry. We segment by equipment category and buyer profile so the right machinery reaches the right buyers at exactly the right moment.
Every sale is amplified by our in-house marketing team through paid search, social, remarketing, and email campaigns — maximizing exposure and driving a steady stream of qualified bidders from the day your auction opens.
We pair digital reach with printed flyers mailed straight to our active buyer base — a proven, time-tested channel that consistently lifts visibility and engagement for every upcoming sale.
Our trusted rigging partners specialize in food-grade and processing equipment. Machinery is disconnected, dismantled, and shipped with precision, and your facility is cleared cleanly and on schedule.
Every auction is hosted on BidSpotter, one of the largest industrial bidding platforms in the world — opening your sale to a global network of motivated, registered buyers.
No two sales are alike. We tailor the format to your situation, your timeline, and the value of your assets — from a single surplus line to a complete plant closure.
When an entire facility comes down, we manage the full liquidation — every line, every asset, every detail. We coordinate cataloging, marketing, sale, and removal so the plant is cleared on your timeline.
Idle and redundant equipment ties up capital and floor space. We sell surplus assets from ongoing operations with minimal disruption, turning machinery you no longer need into working capital.
Hosted on BidSpotter, our online timed auctions reach motivated buyers worldwide. Open bidding creates competition and transparency, helping you achieve fair market value on every lot.
When an auction is not the right fit, we broker negotiated sales directly to qualified buyers in our network — often the better path for specialized, high-value, or time-sensitive assets.
Need to know what your equipment is worth before you decide? Our appraisal and asset-recovery services give lenders, insurers, and owners a defensible valuation and a clear recovery plan.
From rigging and disconnection to crating, transport, and site cleanup, we coordinate the physical side of every sale with partners who know how to handle food and processing equipment.
From the first conversation to final settlement, we manage every stage of the sale so you can stay focused on running your business. Here is what to expect when you partner with us.
We start with a conversation about your timeline, your goals, and the equipment in play. Whether you are closing a facility, retiring a line, or clearing surplus, we assess the assets and recommend the approach that recovers the most value.
Because we are an active equipment dealer as well as an auction house, our valuations are grounded in real-time market data, not guesswork. We build a strategy around your assets, set realistic expectations, and agree on terms before any work begins.
Our team documents each lot on site: make, model, specifications, condition, and high-quality photography. Accurate, detailed listings build buyer confidence and drive stronger bidding.
We put your equipment in front of the right buyers through targeted email campaigns to tens of thousands of industry contacts, paid and social advertising, remarketing, and direct mail. Qualified bidders are often identified before the sale opens.
Every auction is hosted on BidSpotter, one of the largest industrial bidding platforms in the world. Buyers register, inspect, and bid online, giving your sale global reach and a transparent, competitive close.
We collect funds from winning bidders, reconcile the sale, and remit your proceeds on a defined schedule. You receive a clear accounting of every lot sold.
Our trusted rigging partners understand food-grade equipment. Machinery is disconnected, dismantled, and loaded with care, and the facility is cleared on schedule so you can hand over a clean site.
Most auctioneers sell what crosses their dock. We know the food and protein processing market because we buy and sell in it every day.
Straightforward answers to the questions sellers and buyers ask us most.
Start with a conversation. We review your assets, your timeline, and your goals, then recommend the approach that recovers the most value — whether that is an online auction, a negotiated private sale, or a combination of both. There is no cost to find out where you stand.
Terms depend on the size and nature of the sale. We agree on a clear fee structure up front, before any work begins, so you know exactly how proceeds are handled. Call us at +1 847 673 0300 for a quote on your specific situation.
A typical online auction runs a few weeks from cataloging to close, with removal scheduled in the days that follow. Full plant closures take longer because of the volume of assets involved. We build the schedule around your deadlines and tell you up front what is realistic.
Yes. We routinely sell surplus assets from ongoing operations with minimal disruption to production. We coordinate inspection and removal around your schedule so the sale does not interfere with your business.
We promote every sale through targeted email campaigns to tens of thousands of industry contacts, paid and social advertising, remarketing, and direct mail to our buyer base. Because we are an active dealer, we often know which buyers are looking for your assets before the auction opens.
We collect funds from winning bidders, reconcile the sale, and remit your proceeds on an agreed schedule once payment clears and lots are removed. You receive a clear accounting of every lot sold.
All of our auctions are hosted on BidSpotter. Create a free BidSpotter account, register for the specific auction, and you can bid online from anywhere once your registration is approved.
Yes. Most auctions include a scheduled inspection date when registered bidders can view equipment in person before the sale closes. Inspection details are listed on each auction page. We encourage buyers to inspect, as items are sold as-is, where-is.
A buyer’s premium is a percentage added to your winning bid that forms part of the total purchase price. The premium for each sale is stated in the terms and conditions on the auction page before you bid.
Winning bidders pay within the window stated in the auction terms, then arrange removal during the scheduled pickup dates. We can connect you with experienced rigging and transport partners to disconnect, load, and ship your equipment.
Our auctions reach buyers worldwide, and equipment is regularly shipped internationally. Buyers are responsible for export logistics, but our rigging and freight partners can help coordinate crating, transport, and documentation.
Auction equipment is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty — which is why we provide detailed listings and inspection opportunities. If you are looking for reconditioned machinery with support, ask us about our separate reconditioned equipment inventory.
