FAQ’s for Construction Auctions

Are there benefits to buying construction, plant and machinery equipment at auction?

Yes absolutely. Most importantly, within the construction, plant and machinery niche, the equipment is often very high value and also very difficult to get hold of. Auctions present a good opportunity for you to come across what you are looking for at a cheaper price for a slightly used option. The types of assets are generally sold via auction too. It’s the best place to look for plant and machinery and similar assets due to the growth in popularity over the past 10 years.

Can I view the machinery prior to bidding?

Machines stay with the client, so any viewings can be organised on their behalf via them directly, or we can assist here at BPI.

What are the fees and deposit requirements for Plant and Machinery auctions?

Generally the fees range from 5-15% plus VAT. It depends on the catalogue average lot value. If the kits expensive then the % is lower and visa versa.

Can I sell Machinery and Plant with BPI Auctions?

Yes. You can register to sell on the website for free and find further information on selling with BPI here – Sell . We may conduct a profile lookup for verification. We can also send an agent out for free if it’s a fleet clearance.
