Inside This Week’s Machinery Auction Market – 150 Upcoming Sales inc Earthmoving Gear, Forklifts & Trailers

Ross’s regular online sales out of Perth pull together machinery from business closures, police forfeitures, and trade-ins, and this Welshpool auction is no different. The catalogue leans heavily toward earthmoving hardware, with a focus on components and spares rather than complete machines. That makes it a good stop for contractors or owner-operators chasing replacement parts without paying dealer prices.

Pumps feature across several lots, from water transfer units to heavier-duty setups, so check the listings for flow rates and condition notes if that’s your area. The spares side covers filters, hoses, and wear items, plus more specialised bits like final drives or hydraulic components, depending on what’s been catalogued. Given the mix, it’s worth scrolling through the full list rather than cherry-picking, as some lots may be grouped or sold as job lots.

Bidding closes on 10 September, so register early and factor in pickup from Welshpool. Ross runs these sales regularly, but stock changes each time, so if you see a part you need, treat it seriously and bid accordingly.

The standout is the Caterpillar 6090 face shovel bucket, a serious piece of iron for anyone in large-scale mining or earthworks. It’s the kind of item that rarely shows up in a general plant auction, so expect attention from contractors who know what replacement buckets cost.

Beyond that, the spread covers everyday workhorses: excavators in various sizes, wheel loaders for loading and stockpile work, and a drill rig for blasting or geotech jobs. The EWP truck is useful for maintenance crews or arborists, while the conveyor belts suit quarry or aggregate operations needing to move material in bulk.

Ross runs regular online sales from Perth, often mixing in WA Police forfeited goods and business closure stock, so this one has that classic “mixed bag” feel. Bidders should check the condition reports and arrange inspections beforehand, as plant like this can vary wildly from tidy to needs-work. The auction closes 16 September, so get your pre-bids sorted early.

The headline act is the pair of 2011 Volvo Penta TAD1641GE sets, each rated at 500kW/550kVA and pushing 565kW at 1800 RPM. They come enclosed and were supplied by MTU Detroit Diesel Australia, so these are serious bits of kit for a mine site, workshop, or commercial build.

If you need something smaller, there’s a skid-mounted Nugen S60PS with a silenced canopy, plus a 2015 Scania SG400 that offers 320kW of standby power in a CPG sound-attenuated mobile station. For light duties, the Kubota GL6000-AU-B has 2277 hours on the clock and is a straightforward portable unit.

The Kohler KD110s are 3-phase, 415V sets with Leroy-Somer alternators and acoustic canopies, and there’s a WASP DCA-100ESI with 2010 compliance. One of the Kohlers has an extended runtime base fuel tank, which is worth factoring in if you’re planning long hauls. The sale closes 17 September, so get down to Bibra Lake and have a look before then.

Ross’s has put together a clearance-style catalogue that leans heavily on earthmoving and construction kit, but the spread is wider than just diggers and dozers. Look for late-model excavators and wheel loaders, plus support gear like air compressors, generators, and welding plant. There’s also a decent run of workshop tools and attachments, so if you’re setting up a site or topping up a hire fleet, this one covers a few bases.

The auction runs online only, with the close date set for 11 September 2026. Bidding from Perth or interstate is straightforward, but note that inspection times at the Welshpool yard will be posted closer to the close, so factor that in if you want to eyeball the gear before committing. Ross’s moves a steady volume of forfeited stock and business clearances through this yard, so condition varies lot to lot, but the catalogue gives you enough detail to sort the diamonds from the dust.

This is a straight-up unreserved sale, so the starting bids will be where the action is. The earthmoving focus means you’re looking at the kind of kit that usually holds its value hard, but without a reserve, the market sets the pace. If you’re after a second machine for a growing fleet or need something specific for a project, this is a chance to pick it up without the dealer floor markup.

Among the lots, keep an eye out for compact and mid-size excavators, plus wheel loaders that show genuine work hours. There’s also likely to be attachments like buckets and rippers, which often get overlooked but can be the difference between a good buy and a great one. Check the photos for wear on tracks and pins, and factor in transport to site.

The auction closes on 26 September, so you’ve got time to do your homework. sbauction runs these sales regularly, so if the right machine isn’t here, the next one’s never far off. But if you see a unit that fits, don’t leave it to the last minute.

Timber is the drawcard here. The lot list runs heavy on jarrah in every form: thick 40mm and 45mm boards, dressed feature grade, hooded decking at 175 x 22mm, and 28 boxes of waxed engineered flooring covering 68.37m2. Sheoak appears in both dressed and thicknessed boards, with sugar gum rounding out the mix. Anyone fitting out a build, deck or floor should be paying attention to the volumes on offer.

Beyond the timber, the sale takes in a transportable toilet unit, roller doors, workshop machinery and restaurant equipment, so there’s plenty for buyers outside the woodworking trade.

Ross’s runs regular online, live and in-house auctions from Perth, covering WA Police forfeited items, machinery, business closures and vehicles. This one closes 29 September 2026 at the Bunbury Complex on Craigie St, Davenport.

This EOI covers a compact but serious line-up of mining and civil equipment. The Komatsu PC850 is the newest machine in the group, while the D9R dozer and the two 657E scrapers are older units that will suit buyers chasing workhorses rather than low-hour showpieces. Twin scrapers from the same year is worth noting if you run a fleet and want matching gear.

Condition, hours, and service history aren’t detailed here, so request the full info pack from Grays before you commit. Inspection arrangements and the EOI close date are listed on the auction page.

With only 11 lots, competition is likely to be concentrated on the headline machines. If your interest sits with the scrapers or the dozer, get your questions in early and have your numbers ready before the deadline.

This is a regular unreserved sale from sbauction, so everything is selling to the highest bidder with no reserve price holding things back. That makes it a solid hunting ground for tradies, small builders, and anyone looking to pick up gear for a fair price.

The lot list points to a mix of small construction equipment, light vehicles, and industrial bits and pieces. If you need a ute, a trailer, or a compact machine to get a job done, this is the sort of auction where you can snag something without fighting dealer markups. The Midland location means easy access for Perth buyers and regional operators alike.

Check the close date and get your bids in early. With no reserves, the bargains will go to whoever is ready to move.

This is a straight-up unreserved sale, so everything from the Pilbara branch needs a new home. The ex-mine vehicles are the headline grabbers: expect heavy-use gear that still has life left for the right buyer. The DAF truck is a standout for transport operators, while the Toyota LandCruisers will suit anyone needing a tough 4WD for site work or farm access.

The plant-equipment section includes dozers and loaders from CAT and Komatsu, plus support gear like generators and workshop tools. If you’re after mining-spec machinery without the new price tag, this is the one to watch. Check the photos carefully for service history and wear, as these units have worked hard. Bidding closes 17 June.

This unreserved sale from sbauction in Midland WA covers more than just farm gear. The lot list includes a mix of utes, trucks, and four-wheel drives, plus compressors, generators, and welding plant. There are also trailers, forklifts, and earthmoving attachments worth a look.

Buyers should check the condition reports closely, as items are sold as-is. The auction runs until 4 June 2026, so there is time to inspect before bidding. If you need a work ute or a decent tractor for a rural property, this is one to watch.

This sbauction sale at Midland WA covers a solid spread of plant equipment for operators and contractors. Beyond the main loaders and excavators, there’s a 2016 Caterpillar 420F2 backhoe loader, a 2017 Case 721F wheel loader, and a 2012 Hitachi ZX70-5 excavator. Support gear includes a 2014 Isuzu NPS 300 tray truck, a 2015 Toyota HiAce van, and a 2014 Ford Ranger XLT dual cab.

Buyers should note the sale includes a 2016 Kobelco SK210-10 excavator and a 2015 JCB 3CX backhoe. For site prep, there’s a 2015 Caterpillar CS54B vibratory roller and a 2014 Hamm HD12VV tandem roller. The lot list also shows a 2015 Komatsu WA270 wheel loader and a 2016 Hitachi ZX135US-5 excavator. All items appear to be offered without reserve, so check the inspection times if you want to kick the tyres before bidding closes on 5 August 2026.

This sale covers the typical sbauction mix of light industrial assets that move quickly. The Kanga Mini Loader with attachments is a standout for landscapers and small site operators, while the John Deere tractor suits hobby farms or rural blocks. Several transportables and site boxes are listed, ideal for secure on-site storage.

The catalogue also includes a selection of attachments like augers and buckets, plus general workshop gear. With no reserve on any lot, bidding starts from the first dollar. Inspection is available on the day before the close, so factor that in if you need to check running gear or tyre condition.

This is a classic sbauction clearance, the kind where you can grab a working machine without the dealer premium. The lot list leans toward the practical end, with smaller excavators and skid steers likely to draw the tradies, while the agricultural side should pull in hobby farmers and small-block owners chasing a bargain on tillage gear or a secondhand spray unit.

The transportable buildings are the wildcard here. Whether you need a site shed, a hay shed, or something to lock the tools away in, they tend to sell well under replacement cost. Check the condition notes carefully, as some may need a bit of work or a permit for your location.

Buyers should factor in the usual auction costs and organise transport before bidding, as Midland is well-serviced but not exactly central. If you’re chasing a specific attachment, watch the lot list closely, as these sales often mix in oddball items that get overlooked.

The headline act here is a run of unused skid steer gear: grader attachments, vibratory rollers, rock picking buckets and concrete mixer buckets. Unused stock means no worn pins, no repaired welds and no mystery hours, which matters when you’re buying attachments sight unseen.

Beyond the featured lots, the catalogue runs to 90 items across plant and equipment, so there’s room to pick up multiple pieces in one hit. Excavator attachments are in the mix alongside the skid steer gear.

Everything is located at Muchea, north of Perth, so factor freight into your bidding if you’re interstate. Close date is still to be confirmed, check the listing for updates.

This is a serious lineup for anyone in the earthmoving game, and it’s all coming from one location in Bunbury. The Komatsu PC850 is a big-bore excavator built for heavy digging and loading, while the D9R dozer is a proven workhorse for bulk earthworks and site prep. The pair of 657E scrapers are older units, but they’re still sought after for their capacity in cut-and-fill operations, so they could be a smart pick-up if you’ve got the haul roads to run them.

Grays is running this as an EOI, not a timed auction, which means you’ll need to put your best price forward and wait for the vendor’s decision. There are 11 lots listed in total, so while the big iron is the headline, it’s worth checking the full catalogue for supporting equipment that might round out a plant fleet. Buyers should factor in freight and inspection before bidding, especially given the size and weight of these machines. Get your numbers in early, because with EOI sales, the vendor can wrap things up quickly once they’re happy with an offer.

Unused gear is the drawcard here. The 2025 Kobolt KX11 mini excavator comes with multiple attachments and has never seen a job site, and there’s a second KX11 bundled with a trailer for anyone wanting a ready-to-tow setup. A KX135 excavator with a Kubota engine and multiple attachments rounds out the headline lots, listed as unused and dated 2026.

Trailers are covered too, with an 8×5 3T heavy duty digger trailer paired to the KX135. Beyond the excavators, the catalogue spreads across forklifts, mowers and general plant equipment, so there’s scope to pick up more than one item without chasing separate sellers.

Forklifts and mowers sit alongside the earthmoving gear, making this a broad plant clearance rather than a single-machine sale. Inspect the lot list closely if you’re after attachments, since several machines are listed with multiple included.

Ten lots make up this sale, and the theme is straightforward: trailers that have never seen a day’s work. The cattle trailer is the pick for anyone on the land, a 2026 galvanised dual axle unit at 12′ x 6′ with the corrosion protection already sorted. The 10×6 tipper cage trailer suits trade or farm use where you need to dump loads without unloading by hand.

Boat owners get a heavy duty galvanised dual axle trailer, sized for a decent hull and built to handle saltwater launching without the rust worries of a painted frame. A flat trailer rounds out the featured lots for general cartage.

Everything here is unused, so there is no wear to inspect and no repair list to budget for. Condition reports and photos are worth a look before bidding, particularly on the tipper and boat trailers where specs vary between builds. Inspection details and close date are still to be confirmed, so check the listing for updates.

The Stihl lot is the pick of the bunch for anyone maintaining large blocks or working in horticulture. You’ve got an HLA 65 battery-powered hedge trimmer, a BG 86C petrol blower, an FS 131 brushcutter, and a BT 131 auger. That’s a solid four-piece kit for clearing, planting, and tidying up, and government surplus usually means they’ve been serviced on a schedule, not run into the ground.

Beyond the garden gear, there’s some practical stuff for the workshop and site. The 400mm and 250mm digging buckets will suit mini excavator operators looking for spares, and the EMFLUX electromagnetic flowmeter is a niche find for anyone in irrigation or water testing. For the office or retail fit-out, there are two angled display stands with rear cupboard storage, plus a timber three-door display cupboard and a TV stand.

Pickles is running this one from Milperra, so it’s a Sydney pickup. With 12 lots listed and no reserve dramas typical of government auctions, the smart play is to sort out which Stihl unit you actually need and bid accordingly. The council gear tends to move cheap, but the good stuff gets attention late, so have your max number in mind before the timer runs down.

Two Hangcha CPQD25N RW22-Y2 counterbalance forklifts make up this Warwick Farm auction, one from 2017 and one from 2016. Both are 4 wheel units, the configuration that suits yards wanting stability on rough or uneven ground rather than the tight-turn agility of a 3 wheel.

The CPQD25N is a 2.5 tonne capacity model, a common size for warehouses, depots and small manufacturing sites. Buying a matched pair gives you the option to run both, or keep one as a spare and flick the other.

Both lots close on 16 September 2026. Inspect the hour meters and service records before bidding, and confirm the mast and attachment specs suit your racking or container work.

This unreserved sale covers 38 lots of plant and warehouse equipment, so everything goes regardless of price. The forklift lineup is the drawcard: a 2006 Crown CG25E-3 running LPG and a 1989 Yale BP015AD set up for dual fuel, both ride-on units suited to yards, sheds and distribution centres.

Alongside the forklifts there’s a Kemppi RA230 mobile MIG welder for anyone kitting out a workshop, plus a Ricoh Aficio MP C3002 multi function printer for office or site use.

Unreserved means no reserves to clear, and with 38 lots across forklifts, welding and warehousing, there’s plenty to sort through before bidding closes on 22 September.

This one’s all about access equipment that’s been worked hard but maintained properly, typical of ex-hire stock. The Nifty HR21 Hybrid is the pick for tight sites, offering 4×4 drive and that fuel-saving hybrid setup, while the ATN Zebra 16 gives you serious reach on rough ground with its 4×4 articulation. If you need something a bit more compact, the JLG 340AJ is a solid mid-range boom lift, and the HAMM roller rounds out the package for anyone doing road or pavement work.

All lots are unreserved, so prices should reflect what the market’s willing to pay, not some inflated reserve. Check the service histories where available, and factor in transport costs from the various NSW locations. For tradies or hire companies topping up their fleet without paying new prices, this is a practical chance to grab late-model gear.

This is a genuine fleet rotation, not a fire sale of worn-out gear. The star of the show is the 2024 Morooka MST-700VD, a machine that barely has time on the clock and holds its value hard. The 2023 MST80C is the smaller sibling and just as sought after. If you need a compaction fleet, there are five Liugong CLG6615E rollers listed, with the 2022 and 2023 models offering the latest emission specs and operator comfort.

On the excavator side, the 2018 Takeuchi TB280FR is a proper 8-tonne class machine, while the 2016 Kubota KX080-3S and Yanmar VIO80-1 are proven workhorses for tight sites. The 2022 Wacker Neuson EZ17 is a zero-tail-swing mini that’s ideal for utility work. With 12+ lots spread across various NSW and VIC locations, check the listing carefully for where each machine sits. Pickles runs a tight inspection window, so get your pre-buy checks organised before close on 24 September.

This is a tight, high-value lineup for anyone moving bulk material or running a mine site, quarry, or large-scale civil job. The Cat D11 coal blade is the headline, a serious piece of gear for dozer push work or stockpile management, and it’s listed alongside a second coal blade to suit a D11 dozer, so you’ve got options depending on your setup.

The 2004 988G is a proven 10-cubic-yard-class loader, still a workhorse on Australian sites, while the 2009 16M VHP brings variable horsepower and a 4.8-metre blade, ideal for grading haul roads or finishing pads. The 2001 IT38G rounds out the package with quick-coupler versatility, handy for swapping buckets, forks, or attachments on the fly.

Pickles is running this one fully online, so you’re bidding against the whole country, not just the Hunter. Check the inspection times on each lot, factor in freight from the various locations, and have your finance sorted before the close date. Five lots, no filler, all Caterpillar gear with real residual value.

This is not backyard digger stuff. We’re talking production-scale mining machinery, the kind of gear that moves mountains in a single pass. The two Terex O&K RH170 units are serious face shovels, while the Hitachi EX2500-6 is a proven workhorse for loading trucks in hard rock conditions.

The Komatsu WA1200-3 is one of the biggest wheel loaders ever built, and the Caterpillar 6050 is a hydraulic excavator designed for high-volume overburden removal. Buyers should factor in transport and inspection costs before bidding, as these units are located across various national sites. Given the age of the fleet, service history and component wear will be the key to working out a realistic bid.

The drawcard here is the run of unused skid steer attachments. A grader attachment, brush cutter, rock picking bucket and auger drive are all listed as unused, which means no wear, no repair history and no guesswork about how hard they have been worked. For anyone running a skid steer on acreage, a farm or a landscaping crew, that is the kind of gear that usually costs proper money new.

Beyond the attachments, the sale takes in workshop tools and more, so it is worth working through the full 105-lot list rather than stopping at the featured items. Unused stock does not turn up often at auction, and when it does it tends to pull attention from both tradies and weekend operators.

The auction is run by Grays and based in Dubbo, NSW. Close date is still to be confirmed, so check the listing for timing before you plan a bid.

Small auctions like this suit buyers who want one specific machine without wading through hundreds of lots. The HELI pallet truck covers the warehouse side of things, while the two RIPPA units are 2026 models, essentially new, and sized for tight-access work on residential and landscaping jobs.

The R319 is the bigger of the two excavators, with the R10 filling the compact end of the range. Both carry the current model year, which matters if you’re comparing against dealer pricing on new stock.

Three lots total, so competition will be concentrated. Know your ceiling on each machine before bidding opens and treat them as separate buys rather than a package.

This is a genuine mixed bag spanning three decades of working gear. The 2012 Scania G440 prime mover is the pick for anyone chasing a modern highway truck, while the 1989 Scania P93 fire truck offers something different entirely, whether that’s a restoration project or a heavy-duty base for a custom build.

The 2020 Deici Samson telehandler is the newest unit on the list and worth a close look if you need material handling gear without paying new pricing. The 1995 Nissan UD PK240 tray truck rounds out the featured lots, a solid workhorse for general cartage.

With 46 lots across vehicles, trucks and plant equipment from multiple vendors, there’s scope to pick up single items or bundle a few. Inspection details and lot conditions are listed on the Grays site. Bidding closes 15 September 2026.

This is a straight-up ex-hire clearance, so the gear has been worked but is being moved without a reserve. The two Hino 300 tippers are the heavy hitters here, both 2018 models in 4×2 config, ideal for site cleanups or landscaping runs. If you need something smaller, the Kubota U55 is a solid compact excavator for tight digs, while the 2023 Bobcat S70 skid steer is nearly new and suits a range of jobs from grading to loading.

With only six lots listed, it’s a manageable sale for buyers who want to inspect each item properly. No auctioneer’s reserve means the highest bid takes it, so do your homework on current market prices for these units before the close date lands. Check the Grays listing for exact location details per lot, as they’re scattered across QLD, not sitting in one yard.

The 2022 Kenworth T610 SAR is the headline act here. It’s a late-model, high-spec American-style cab-over that’s built for serious line-haul work, and it’s coming with the kind of powertrain and running gear that operators want. The 2021 Western Star 4864 Series 6×4 is the other big ticket, offering a different driving experience but the same heavy-duty intent.

For buyers who need to shift pallets or containers, the 2020 Toyota 8FD70N diesel forklift rounds out the lot. With a 7-tonne capacity, it’s a proper piece of plant gear, not a warehouse toy. The mix of on-road trucks and a material-handling unit means this sale could suit a transport operator looking to upgrade, or a buyer chasing one solid unit for a specific job.

Both truck locations are split between Pinkenba and Townsville, so factor in where each asset sits before bidding. Registration and compliance status will be key for the trucks, so check the listing details or arrange an inspection if you’re serious. The close date is still to be confirmed, so get your research done early and be ready to move when it locks in.

This one’s spread right across the country, so it pays to check what’s sitting in your state before you start bidding. Pickles has grouped the salvage listings by location, meaning you can zero in on a dozer in Queensland or a header in Western Australia without wading through stuff that’s too far to collect. Freight costs can eat a bargain, so factor that in early.

The lot list covers the usual salvage suspects: excavators, loaders, graders, and tractors with varying levels of damage, from rollovers to fire and flood write-offs. Some will be a straightforward repair job, others are better for parts. If you’re a mechanic or a wrecker with a steady hand, there’s money to be made. Agricultural gear is mixed in too, so look for spray rigs, headers, and implements if that’s your patch.

Pickles runs these salvage events regularly, but the condition reports and photos are worth studying hard before you commit. No test drives on a damaged unit, so go off what you see and what the report says. Bidding closes on 21 September, so line up your shortlist now and check the viewing times for your nearest location.

This one’s spread across multiple sites, so factor in freight or travel when you’re bidding. The mix leans toward practical stuff: think excavator buckets, couplers, and other attachments that usually get snapped up quick by contractors and farmers. Trailers in the lineup range from light-duty box trailers up to heavier plant haulers, so there’s something for both the tradie and the hobbyist.

Pickles has run these regional online sales for a while, and the condition reports are worth reading before you commit. Some lots will be ex-lease or trade-ins, meaning wear and tear varies, but that’s where the value sits if you’re happy to do a bit of tidying up. Check the listing photos carefully, especially on hydraulic hoses and tyres, as those are the usual weak points.

Bidding closes on 14 October, and it’s a timed online format, so you’ll need to be organised. If you’re after a specific attachment or a cheap trailer for site work, this catalogue is worth a scroll. Just remember, with multiple pickup locations, the cheapest bid can get dearer once you add transport, so do the sums before you hit that button.

Pickles has pulled together a multi-location catalogue covering both sides of the Bass Strait, which means freight or pickup planning is part of the job. The workshop side is the main draw here, with industrial-grade equipment that typically comes out of trade-ins and business wind-downs, so condition varies lot to lot. Look for metalworking staples like pedestal drills, bench grinders, and oxy sets, plus a decent run of hand tooling and measuring gear that often slips under the radar.

On the groundcare side, there’s the usual roster of ride-on mowers, line trimmers, and chainsaws, but check the individual listings for brands and engine sizes before bidding. Some lots are listed from different sites across VIC and TAS, so factor in transport costs early. Inspection times and pickup windows will be listed against each lot, so don’t assume one location covers everything. If you’re after spare parts or backup gear for a workshop, this one’s worth a scroll through the full list.

Liquidassets has put together a straightforward two-machine package for anyone needing material handling gear. The Merlo telehandler is a c.2013 model with a 2.5-tonne rated capacity, a common size for farm sheds, small earthmoving jobs, or general yard work where you need reach without a big rig. The Manitou forklift, a 2020 model, steps up with a 3.0-tonne capacity, making it a newer, higher-output unit for loading trucks or shifting pallets around a worksite.

The auction is online only and closes on 15 September 2026, so there’s time to do your own inspection or arrange a viewing through the auctioneer. With just one lot covering both machines, you’re bidding once for the pair, not chasing separate items. Worth checking the service history and hours on each unit before the close, as condition will drive the final price. If you need both a telehandler and a forklift, this could save you chasing two separate sales.

Two Toyota forklifts are on offer, split across Grays’ Dandenong South and Campbellfield sites. The newer of the pair is a 2013 Toyota 32-8FG18, a 4 wheel counterbalance unit that should suit a workshop wanting a reliable daily lift without paying new-machine money. Alongside it is a 2007 Toyota 328FG15, also 4 wheel counterbalance, a solid option for a yard or warehouse where the work is steady rather than constant.

Both are listed as featured lots, so expect them to draw attention from buyers chasing Toyota build quality at auction pricing. Inspect the mast, hours and service history on each before bidding, and note the two locations when planning a pickup.

This sale pulls together a practical spread of civil and civic gear, heavy on attachments that often get overlooked but cost a fortune new. The earthmoving side looks like the main draw, with buckets and rippers that could bolt straight onto common excavator models, plus general goods that round out a working site.

For buyers, the mix suggests a cleared yard or depot, which usually means negotiable condition and realistic starting prices. If you need spare steel for a job coming up, this is worth a look before the 17 September close. Check the photos carefully for wear on cutting edges and mounting points, and factor in freight from Melbourne if you’re not local.

The Komatsu WA480-6 is the standout here, a late-model loader with serious capacity for quarry or civil work. It’s backed by the Cat 926K, a solid mid-size option that’s been a staple on Aussie sites for years, and the Cat 735 ADT rounds out the trio for hauling over rough ground.

All three units are located in Tasmania, so factor in freight or transport costs if you’re on the mainland. The 2004 Cat 735 is getting on in years, but ADTs hold their value when maintained, and the Komatsu’s age suggests it’s got plenty of life left. Check the auction listing for service history and hour readings before bidding, and get your transport sorted early if you win.

This one’s for the earthmoving crowd who want gear without the wear. The standout is the vibratory roller attachment for skid steers, ideal for compaction work on driveways, pads, or site prep. The rock picking bucket is another smart pickup if you’re clearing paddocks or rough ground, saving you the back-breaking manual sort.

Also in the mix: a brush cutter attachment for clearing scrub and a concrete mixer bucket for small pours or patch jobs. All listed as unused, which is rare for this type of equipment, so condition shouldn’t be a worry. With 89 lots total, there’s likely more attachments and related plant equipment beyond the featured items, so it’s worth digging through the full catalogue.

Close date isn’t locked in yet, so check the listing regularly to avoid missing the cutoff. If you’re in northern Victoria or willing to travel, this is a solid chance to grab near-new gear for less than dealer pricing.

This Gollant auction is squarely aimed at contractors and operators who need dependable machinery without the showroom premium. The catalogue is built around the sort of gear that keeps sites moving, with a strong focus on earthmoving and civil construction kit. Buyers should look for late-model excavators, dozers, and loaders, alongside support vehicles and site equipment that often get overlooked but are just as essential to a profitable tender.

The standout lots are the high-value plant items, which look to have come from a working contractor’s fleet, meaning they’re likely to show real hours and real use, not just meter time. That’s a double-edged sword, so get your inspections done early. For anyone pricing up a new project or replacing tired machinery, this is one of those sales where the condition reports and pre-auction viewing will separate the smart bids from the hopeful ones. Gollant runs a tight process, so have your finance sorted and your transport organised before the close date is locked in.

Unreserved is the key word here. Every one of the nine lots sells regardless of price, so the bidding starts where it starts and finishes where it finishes. For anyone chasing loaders or an excavator, that removes the usual guessing game about whether a machine will actually move.

The Caterpillar presence is strong: a 980F Series II wheel loader, a 966F integrated tool carrier and a 2006 345C hydraulic excavator. The 966F tool carrier is the versatile pick of the bunch, built to run forks, buckets and attachments rather than a single fixed job. The 345C is the heavy hitter, a 2006 build with the hours and wear you would expect from a machine of that vintage, so inspect accordingly.

A Kawasaki 95ZV wheel loader rounds out the featured lots. Plant of this size rarely sells unreserved, which is what makes this one worth a look for operators and contractors chasing working iron.
