Our upcoming auction in Maltby (UK) on 29 March<\/a> features quite a unique consignment. Bidders at the online sale can bid on top-quality all-terrain cranes from UK-based crane hire company Ainscough<\/a>. In preparation for crane sale, Ainscough completed a thorough inspection service project at its Stockton-on-Tees facility, making each of the ten all-terrain cranes \u2018ready to work\u2019 for their next owners.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the company\u2019s major de-fleet program, each Ainscough crane has undergone an extensive inspection and defect rectification, ensuring they meet a high standard of operation and presentation, in addition to an online report from the Ritchie Bros. Maltby team. Buyers have the opportunity to personally inspect the cranes on March 27 and 28, with an operator from Ainscough on site on March 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cranes that represent the Ainscough brand<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you have a legacy of 80,000 successfully completed projects in 30 locations globally, your equipment needs to be constantly maintained to the highest standards. This is the case with Ainscough. Their fleet has a history of 2,300,000 safe lifting hours worldwide and they make sure that all cranes undergo the same thorough maintenance process across the depot network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“When someone buys an Ainscough crane, we want them to be able to use it immediately, knowing it has gone through a full detailed inspection process. It’s not just a crane we want to sell at auction; it’s a crane that represents the Ainscough brand,” said Ritchie Bros., Graham Weights, Head of Engineering at Ainscough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing Ritchie Bros.<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This high standard of operation meant that Ainscough had to find a reputable company with a global reach to handle the sale of its cranes. The Company chose Ritchie Bros. to find buyers at the upcoming Maltby auction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Having previously sold cranes with Ritchie Bros, we know that this final part of our asset lifecycle is in good hands, reflecting the strength of our brand standards to a global audience. And when the new operator gets into the cab, they will be pleasantly surprised with how extensive our inspection service program is,\u201d Weights added.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
