No One Does Everything We Do

When sellers compare offsite auction providers, they often assume the services are similar.

List the equipment. Market the sale. Find a buyer.

Simple enough, right?

Not exactly.

The truth is that selling equipment successfully requires much more than running an auction. It takes valuation expertise, professional marketing, a trusted selling platform, transaction management, and a plan for getting equipment to its new owner.

That’s where Ritchie Bros. stands apart.

We’re the only company that supports every stage of the selling process, creating a complete service experience from appraisal to final equipment removal. Better yet, everything we offer at a traditional auction site is available for an offsite auction as well.

It Starts Before the Auction

Every successful sale begins with understanding what your equipment is worth.

Our team works with sellers to evaluate equipment, analyze market conditions, and develop a strategy designed to maximize results. That insight helps you decide what to sell, when to sell it, and how to position it for buyers.

Whether you’re selling a single asset or an entire fleet, our equipment appraisal and valuation expertise helps build confidence before your equipment ever reaches the market.

More Than a Listing

Anyone can post equipment online.

What drives results is putting that equipment in front of the right buyers.

Our specialists create detailed listings that help buyers make informed bidding decisions, while our global marketing team promotes your equipment through targeted email campaigns, digital advertising, online marketplaces, and our extensive worldwide buyer network.

Combined with our selling solutions, this approach helps generate greater visibility, stronger buyer engagement, and more competitive bidding.

A Trusted Auction Experience

When auction day arrives, we handle the entire selling process.

Your equipment can remain at your location while buyers from around the world compete for it. Sellers gain access to the same trusted auction experience, proven processes, and global reach that have made Ritchie Bros. an industry leader.

Whether you’re participating in a live auction, online event, or offsite sale, buyers gain access through our trusted auction marketplace.

Support Through Settlement

Our job doesn’t end when bidding closes.

We manage buyer payments, process transactions, and handle settlement, helping simplify the administrative side of the sale so you can focus on your business.

From appraisal to proceeds, we’re there every step of the way. The result is a streamlined selling experience backed by a team that understands the entire transaction lifecycle.

Even Equipment Removal Is Covered

Here’s where the full-service circle comes together.

Many companies stop supporting sellers once the equipment is sold. We don’t.

Through VeriTread transportation services, buyers can access transportation solutions that help move purchased equipment from your property to its next destination. With access to vetted carriers and logistics support, the process remains smooth long after the sale is complete.

The Complete Selling Solution

Appraisal. Listing. Marketing. Auction. Settlement. Equipment removal through VeriTread.

No other company delivers the same end-to-end support for equipment sellers. Whether your equipment is located at an auction site, a jobsite, or your own yard, Ritchie Bros. provides a complete selling solution from start to finish.
