Equipment in the March 2 – 3 auction was stored at Ritchie Bros. sites in Denver, CO; Salt Lake City, UT; Williston, ND; and two separate locations in Billings, MT. The online auction attracted 11,000+ bidders from 49 countries, with approximately 95% of the equipment purchased by Americans, including 25% sold to Colorado and 10% to Utah.
“Immediately following the auction, we began receiving calls from customers asking how quickly they can get their equipment on the market to take advantage of the strong pricing we are achieving today,” added Mr. Apland. “We have IronPlanet sales every Thursday, our Marketplace-E platform is stocked 24/7 with premier assets, and our next Rocky Mountain regional event will be in May—whatever you need, we are here to help!”
