A significant selection of construction equipment, vehicles and site assets from Riggs Plant Ltd. has been brought to market following the company’s closure. The sale represents a strong opportunity for construction hoist hire businesses, contractors, plant and tool hire companies, scaffolding businesses and construction professionals seeking additional equipment to support current and upcoming projects. The disposal comes at a time when many construction and infrastructure firms continue to look for cost-effective ways to source machinery across a range of works.

The catalogue includes flatbed vehicles, panel vans, construction hoists, goods hoists, ladder lifts, scaffold hoists, diesel generators and a wide range of lifting and site equipment. Key assets include a 2012 Volkswagen Crafter CR50 flatbed van, a 2015 DAF LF 150 7.5T flatbed lorry, 2023 and 2020 Maber MBC500-120 construction hoists, a 2018 Maber MBC2000/150 construction hoist, 2016 De Jong AT30L goods hoists, a Mosa GE 115 PSX diesel generator, a Stephill SSDX16 diesel generator and various Mace Bumpa and IMER lifting units. This assortment reflects the operational footprint of a busy construction support business and offers a broad range of equipment for firms looking to expand or refresh their fleets.

Commenting on the sale, Robin Latham, Business Development at BPI, said:
“It’s always disappointing to see a long-standing business close its doors, but this auction ensures that the equipment can continue to deliver value within the industry. The range on offer will be particularly attractive to construction hoist hire companies, contractors and anyone needing lifting and site support equipment. By bringing these assets to market through a transparent, competitive auction process, we aim to help realise the best possible return while giving buyers access to comprehensive selection of machinery and site equipment.”

The auction will close on 27th November at 1pm, with all assets located in Hellingly, BN27.
