All Pumps – Industrial Pump Motors Clearance Auction Unreserved
A big run of industrial electric motors is being cleared in Silverwater, NSW through Grays. The 147 lots lean heavily on WEG and Techtoo units, with multiple electric motors grouped across the catalogue.
FAQ
What typically comes up in industrial auctions?
Manufacturing plant and machinery, lathes, presses, mills, compressors, warehouse racking and shelving, commercial fitouts, and the full contents of factories and workshops when they close.
How do I find industrial auctions in my state?
The listings below are organised by state. The major houses such as Slattery, Lloyds, and Grays, all run regular industrial sales nationally. Local clearance and liquidation houses also contribute significant volume in each state.
Is industrial equipment sold with any compliance certification?
Rarely. Most equipment is sold as-is with no certification. If you intend to use machinery commercially, you’ll need to arrange an independent compliance inspection before commissioning it in a workplace.
What should I check before bidding on industrial equipment?
Age, condition, operating hours where applicable, power requirements, and whether the equipment is complete (tooling, dies, and accessories often go missing).
Trends & Insights
Transport operators looking to refresh fleet assets have a deep pool this week, with Smith Broughton’s 120-plus lot trucks and transport gear auction closing 24 September. The headline lot is a 2018 Kenworth K200 Big Cab with 380,000km showing and a 155-tonne rating, offered unreserved alongside a 2021 MTE 2×8 dolly and 2012 MTE 4×8 float, with bidding already underway as of 22 September (BigRigs, Sep 22).
Workshop and fabrication buyers have several liquidator-driven opportunities to work through. Pickles is running an unreserved workshop, office and general equipment sale in Melbourne closing 28 September, with 37 lots including a Fein cold saw, JDPower lifter, Elumatec table saw and tool bundles from Bosch, DeWalt and Makita (Pickles Auctions, Sep 28). Manheim’s Liberty Bell Bay series is also moving through workshop and steel fabrication assets, with stores inventory closing 29 September and CAT loaders and mobile plant following on 30 September (Manheim Industrial, Sep 25).
Civil and earthmoving supply is equally heavy. Pickles’ asphalting and roadmaking receivership sale closes 29 September, spanning trucks, trailers, plant attachments and workshop tools from NSW sites (Pickles Auctions, Sep 24), while Manheim’s unreserved Wagga attachment auction offers 57 lots of 2025 Wolverine hydraulic buckets, scrapers, excavator thumbs and impact wrenches closing 25 September (Auction Finder, Sep 22). Auction Finder counted 51 industrial auctions this week, flagging Grays’ 100-lot Mortdale warehouse clearance on 24 September as a power tool and workshop gear highlight (Auction Finder, Sep 21).
Watch the closing sequence on the Pickles receivership and Manheim Wagga sales early next week, as late bidding on unreserved plant attachments and workshop tooling typically sets the pricing tone for the following fortnight.
Last updated: 28 Sept 2026
Rod’s Tips
Factory closure sales are where the genuine bargains are. When a complete factory disposes, everything goes, from the machinery to the brooms. Lot quality is high and pricing is motivated.
Warehouse racking is perennially undervalued at auction. New Dexion or Colby racking is expensive. Second-hand racking at auction, even accounting for transport and re-erection, is typically 30–60% cheaper. Check beam and upright condition carefully for damage and missing pins.
Bring a measuring tape and the equipment specs you need to match. Industrial auction listings are often vague on dimensions. If you’re buying to fill a specific space or process requirement, measure at the preview and don’t rely on catalogue descriptions.
Power requirements matter. Three-phase industrial equipment is common at auction. Confirm your site has the correct supply before bidding on anything that needs it.

NSW Pick Up ONLY – Warehouse Clearance Pallet Sale – 10% BP
More detail
This is a pick up only sale, so factor in a trip to Yenorra before you bid. The warehouse is clearing pallet quantities, and the booze dominates the manifest. Standouts include a mixed pallet of beer and bar mixers spanning 200mL to 1L formats, ideal if you run a venue, bottle shop, or just want a serious stockpile. There’s also a wine pallet combining 41 casks at 4L with 21 standard 750mL bottles, plus a straight run of Barossa Cider mid strength apple cider across 13 cartons of 24.
The Mosca Rose 2023 out of Margaret River is the cleanest single line in the sale, 32 cartons at 6x 750mL each. With 11 lots total and a 10% buyer’s premium, the numbers stack up for anyone buying in volume. Everything is NSW pick up only, so arrange transport before the 26 September close.
-

The Bargain Bin Warehouse Wipeout
More detail
This is a warehouse wipeout in the truest sense. Lloyds has pulled together a broad spread across vehicles, jewellery, collectables, plant and equipment, and general goods, so there is plenty to sort through whether you are chasing a specific piece of gear or just seeing what turns up.
The plant and equipment side should draw the trade crowd, while the jewellery and collectables lots give the general buyer something to work with. General goods round out the sale for anyone restocking or hunting a cheap pickup.
Bidding runs online through Lloyds and closes 30 September. Do your homework on individual lots before the timer runs down.

All Pumps – Industrial Pump Motors Clearance Auction Unreserved
More detail
This unreserved clearance covers 147 lots of industrial pump motors and related gear. The headline groups are four WEG and Techtoo electric motors, a six-motor lot, a seven-unit WEG and Techtoo batch, and an eight-motor lot, so there is scope to buy single units or stock up in bulk.
WEG and Techtoo dominate the brand mix, both well known in industrial settings and worth a look if you run pumps, workshops, or maintenance crews. Unreserved means everything sells regardless of price, which suits buyers chasing volume over single-item bargains.
Closing date is still to be confirmed, so check the listing for updates before planning a bid.
-

Major Retailer Industrial Pump Motors Clearance Auction Unreserved
More detail
This is a retailer clearance, which means the stock is moving out regardless of price. Everything is unreserved, so the final bids decide what these motors go for. For anyone running a workshop, pump setup or repair business, that is worth a look.
The featured lots are the bulk runs: four WEG and Techtoo electric motors in one lot, six in another, seven in a third and eight in a fourth. Smaller lots round out the 148 on offer, so you can chase a single unit or scale up depending on what your job needs.
WEG is a well known name in industrial motors and Techtoo units turn up regularly in pump applications, so there is a mix of familiar gear here. Inspection details and pickup arrangements are set by Grays at Milperra, so check the listing before bidding.
-

Industrial Sewing Machines
More detail
The Siruba DL889-M2-3 is a high-speed, single-needle lockstitch machine built for continuous industrial use, the kind of unit that suits garment manufacturing, upholstery, or any operation where fabric gets sewn all day. Four of the six lots are this exact model, so buyers chasing multiple matching machines have a genuine shot at kitting out a line in one hit.
Grays is running the sale out of Milperra, closing 30 September. With six lots and most of them the same spec, this is a straightforward pickup for trade buyers who know what they need. Inspect before bidding and check the condition notes on each lot.
-

All Pumps – Industrial Control Panels, Gear Box And General Equipment Auction
More detail
This is a working workshop clearance, so expect the practical gear that keeps a site running: control panels, gearboxes and general industrial equipment alongside the bigger-ticket machines. The Crossley generator with control box and the diesel generator with control are the picks if you need backup power, while the HAFCO B-500 bandsaw and single stage mobile dust collector will suit anyone setting up or topping up a woodworking setup.
With 90 lots on offer, there is enough variety to make a full day of it. Condition varies across a sale like this, so go through the lot list properly and check the photos and descriptions before you commit. Pickup and inspection details sit with the listing.
-

Major Retailer Industrial Control Panels, G-Box And General Equipment Auction
More detail
This is a clearance from a major retailer, which means the gear is coming out of a working commercial environment rather than a warehouse that never opened its doors. The lot list leans heavily on control panels, with multiple pairs listed, plus steel construction control panel cages that come with chains. G-Box units and general equipment round out the catalogue.
The cages are worth a look if you need secure housing for panels or similar gear. They are built for site conditions, not display shelves. Pairs of control panels also appear more than once, so there is room to bid on matching sets rather than chasing singles.
With 92 lots, there is enough depth to make the trip worthwhile if industrial control gear is your patch. Inspection details and collection terms are set by Grays, so check those before bidding.
-

Industrial Tools & Building Supplies Auction
More detail
These Seves glass blocks are the headline act, and there are five separate lots of them. That’s nearly 50 square metres of premium metallised glass block in total, still in brand-new condition. The Q30 Neutro Doric profile is a quality architectural product, and the $14,000 ORP per lot gives you a solid benchmark for the discount on offer. If you’re a builder, glazier, or renovator with a commercial project in mind, this is serious stock at a fraction of its retail value.
Beyond the glass, the auction carries a broader range of industrial tools and building supplies, so it’s worth scrolling through the full 61 lots. With allbids running the sale online, you can bid from anywhere in NSW, but check the close time on 18 August and have your bids in early. The metallised finish on the glass blocks gives a distinctive, reflective look, so expect interest from design-focused buyers as much as tradies.
-

Truck Body, Workshop, Plant & Equipment
More detail
The headline item is a truck body built to rental spec: dry freight, FRP honeycomb construction. That’s a lightweight, durable panel setup that suits fleet work and holds up to daily punishment. If you’ve priced one new, you’ll know what a used one in good nick is worth to you.
Welding gear is the other draw. The Castolin Eutectic Total Arc 270, also badged as the Fronius TPS2700, is a mobile MIG unit aimed at serious workshop use. Alongside it sits an Abicor Binzel PPG 26 push-pull MIG gun rated at 300amp with an 8m lead, plus a BOC mobile MIG welder.
With 89 lots spanning vehicles, trucks, plant and industrial categories, there’s plenty beyond the featured items to sift through. Close date is still TBC, so check the listing for timing before you plan a bid.
-

Sydney Civil Contractor Warehouse, Attachments, Light Industrial Disposal
More detail
Pickles is handling the disposal of a civil contractor’s warehouse in Sydney, and the mix leans practical: attachments, light industrial equipment and general site gear accumulated by a working outfit. For anyone kitting out a workshop or topping up a plant inventory, this is the kind of sale where the useful stuff sits alongside the surplus.
Attachments and buckets are the drawcard for earthmoving operators, while the light industrial side should suit fab shops, mechanics and trade businesses chasing spare capacity. Contractor disposals tend to move quickly and condition varies, so check the lot photos and descriptions before bidding.
Inspection details, catalogue and bidding are all through Pickles. Do your homework on the lots you want and bid to your number.

BIG BRAND AUTO TOOLS AND WORKSHOP – STANLEY, SIDCROME, DEWALT, KINCROME, NOCO, CAT…
More detail
This is a brand-heavy workshop clear-out, with names like Stanley, Sidchrome, DeWALT, Kincrome, NOCO and CAT doing the heavy lifting. The Genpower inverter generator leads the featured lots at 8.5kW peak, though note it’s not in its original box. For 18V DeWALT users, the XR triple source tyre inflator is skin only, so bring your own batteries.
The CAT Cube PPSCL3I jump starter is a compact 4-in-1 unit worth a look if you want portable power without the bulk. Rounding out the featured gear is a DeWALT Max Impact 34-piece 1/4" hex screwdriving set, handy for anyone building out a workshop kit.
With 120 lots spanning auto tools and workshop equipment, there’s plenty to sort through before bidding closes. Check the individual listings for condition notes, especially on boxed versus skin-only items.
-

All Pumps – Industrial Pump Clearance Auction Unreserved
More detail
This is an unreserved clearance, which means everything sells regardless of price. No reserves, no vendor bids holding things back. For anyone who runs a workshop, mine site, or processing plant, that changes the maths considerably.
The lot list leans heavily on air operated double diaphragm pumps. Multiple units are listed, so there is room to bid across several rather than fighting over one. These pumps suit transfer work with slurries, chemicals, and other tough fluids where electric units are impractical or unsafe.
With 143 lots in the sale, there is more here than just the featured pumps. Buyers after spares, fittings, or backup units should dig through the full catalogue before the close. Grays is running it out of Silverwater, so inspection and pickup logistics stay straightforward for anyone in Sydney.
-

– Expressions of Interest – EOI – Car & Truck Smash Repair Workshop Equipment
More detail
This is an EOI rather than a standard timed auction, which means the auctioneer is gauging interest before deciding how to proceed. The listing covers equipment suited to a car and truck smash repair operation. O’maras runs regular general auctions in Lilyfield, covering household goods, furniture, antiques and estate sales, so this sits outside their usual mix.
Given the single-lot format, expect to make direct contact about what is included and how the process works. Close date is still to be confirmed, so register your interest early if you want details as they come to hand.

The Bargain Bin Warehouse Wipeout
More detail
Lloyds has pulled together a broad warehouse-style auction spanning five categories: vehicles, jewellery, collectables, plant and equipment, and general goods. That mix suits buyers chasing work-ready machinery as much as those hunting smaller items, with plenty of lots to sort through across the catalogue.
Plant and equipment sits alongside the vehicle listings for anyone kitting out a site or upgrading gear. Jewellery and collectables add a different angle for resellers and hobbyists, while the general goods section rounds out the sale with everyday stock.
The auction runs online and closes 30 September 2026. With this many categories under one roof, it pays to work through the full lot list early and shortlist what you actually want before bidding opens up.
-

Gollant — Truck And Car Exhaust Manufacturers And Installers Auction
More detail
This is a full shop breakup, not a few leftover tools. Gollant is clearing the equipment behind a truck and car exhaust manufacturing and installation business in Melbourne, and the big-ticket items are the benders. A Steelmaster automatic tube, pipe and exhaust bender leads the list, backed by two Bend-Pak hydraulic exhaust bending machines. Each comes with its dies, which matters if you plan to put them straight to work.
The lifting side is just as solid. There’s a four post Stertil Koni 5500kg truck hoist system, plus a BendPak fixed four post truck hoist. That’s serious capacity for anyone running a workshop that handles trucks, not just cars.
Exhaust fabrication gear of this scale doesn’t move through auctions often, and buyers chasing a full setup rather than one machine should look closely at what’s bundled here.

Jarrah & Karri Timber, Transportable Toilet Unit, Roller Doors, Workshop Machinery & Restaurant Equipment Online Bunbury Auction
More detail
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.
-

Commercial & Industrial Welding Equipment Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
Ross’s Auctions is listing commercial and industrial welding equipment from its Welshpool complex on Orrong Road. The sale runs online and covers the kind of gear that usually moves fast when a workshop closes or a business upgrades: welders, gas equipment, and general industrial machinery.
Ross’s runs regular online, live, and in-house auctions out of Perth, with stock that includes WA Police forfeited items, machinery, business closures, and vehicles. That mix means this catalogue sits alongside the usual industrial clear-out fare, so it pays to read each lot description closely before bidding.
The auction closes 1 October 2026. Inspect what you can, check condition notes on anything gas or electrical, and bid on the lots that suit your setup.
-

Industrial Spare Parts, Caterpillar Components, Tools & Electrical Equipment
More detail
Ross’s runs regular online, live and in-house auctions out of Perth, and this one leans hard into industrial stock: spare parts, Caterpillar components, tools and electrical equipment. The Welshpool complex at 453 Orrong Road is the pickup point, so factor freight or a trailer into your bidding.
Ross’s regular rotation also takes in WA Police forfeited items, machinery, business closures and vehicles, so it pays to watch their listings beyond this sale. If you run a workshop or fix plant, the Cat components alone are worth a look.
Closing date is 25 September 2026. Inspect before you bid, confirm condition on anything electrical, and sort your transport before the hammer falls.

Online – Grays – WA Template Industrial (Jandakot)
More detail
The Kato MR-130-R is the headline act. A 130-tonne capacity rough terrain crane, it’s the sort of machine that suits civil contractors, crane hire outfits, or anyone with heavy lifts and soft ground to deal with. Rough terrain capability means it can get to work where truck-mounted cranes can’t.
The Scania 440 prime mover is the second draw. A 4×2 configuration with the 440hp engine, it’s a proven highway workhorse for general freight or tipper duty. Scania’s reputation for longevity means a well-maintained 2015 unit still has plenty of runs left.
Both lots are listed through Grays for online bidding out of Jandakot. Check the individual lot pages for hours, service history, and condition reports before you commit.
-

Perth Weekly Warehouse Sale
More detail
This is a warehouse clearance built for anyone working in plumbing, fabrication, or civil supply. The lot list leans heavily on pipe fittings: carbon steel butt-weld tees, galvanised malleable iron 90° elbows, and large black pipe end caps sold as pallets of six. There’s also a mixed pipe fittings and flanges job lot for buyers who want variety without chasing individual pieces.
Sixty lots total, all industrial category. If you’re kitting out a workshop or topping up stock, the bulk pallets and job lots are where the value sits. Individual fittings suit smaller jobs, but the pallet listings are the ones to watch if you’ve got storage and regular demand.
Check the close date directly with grays. Inspection details and pickup terms will matter here given the weight and volume of some lots.

$4M Major Brand Industrial Coatings, Paint & Staining
More detail
This one is heavy on industrial coatings, paint and staining supplies from a major brand, with the catalogue carrying a $4M price tag across the sale. Lloyds has put together a broad multi-lot online auction that goes well beyond the paint side, pulling in vehicles, jewellery, collectables, plant and equipment, and general goods.
For anyone chasing workshop or trade stock, the coatings and staining lots are the headline act. The mix of categories means there is plenty to scroll through, so check the full lot list before bidding closes on 30 September 2026.
-

The Bargain Bin Warehouse Wipeout
More detail
This is a warehouse-style clearance with a broad spread rather than a single headline item. Lloyds Auctions has pulled together vehicles, jewellery, collectables, plant and equipment and general goods into one online sale, which suits buyers chasing several different things without paying retail.
Plant and equipment will draw the trade crowd, while the jewellery and collectables sit at the other end of the spectrum for anyone hunting something smaller. General goods round out the list for practical buyers.
The auction closes 30 September. Inspect the lot list properly before bidding, because condition and specs vary widely across a sale this size.

VIC/TAS Workshop Machinery, Small Tooling, & Groundcare Equipment (Online)
More detail
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.
-

NSW/ACT Workshop Machinery, Small Tooling, & Groundcare Equipment (Online)
More detail
Pickles is running this one online across various NSW and ACT locations, closing 19 October. The catalogue leans industrial: five pump lots covering diaphragm and submersible styles. Two unbranded diaphragm pumps and two unbranded submersible pumps sit alongside a Grindex submersible drainage pump, the one branded unit in the lineup.
Grindex is a known name in drainage and dewatering gear, so that lot is likely the pick of the five. The unbranded units are worth a look if you need spares or a cheap backup pump and don’t care about the badge.
Everything is listed as workshop machinery, small tooling, and groundcare equipment, so check each lot’s location before bidding. Pickup details vary by site.

Vehicles, Workshop, Irrigation & Plumbing
More detail
This is a broad commercial sale from an Adelaide auction house that has run regular machinery, agricultural, mining and deceased estate auctions since 1980. The mix leans practical: vehicles on one side, workshop equipment on the other, plus irrigation and plumbing lines that rarely turn up together in the one catalogue.
Standout interest sits in the workshop and plumbing stock. Air compressors, welders, pumps, pipe fittings and hand tools are the sort of gear that holds value and moves quickly when priced right. The vehicle and trailer lots round out the sale for anyone chasing a work-ready unit rather than a project.
Buyers should note the range spans several categories, so it pays to read each lot description closely. The sale closes 7 October.
-

Woodworking & Joinery Workshop Liquidation
More detail
mgs has been running commercial, agricultural, mining and machinery sales out of Adelaide since 1980, and this liquidation fits the brief: a working joinery shop cleared in one hit. Kilkenny is a short run north-west of the CBD, so inspection and pickup are easy for local trade buyers.
The drawcard is the gear itself. Joinery setups like this typically include panel saws, spindle moulders, thicknessers, linishers, dust extraction and benches, plus the hand tools and timber that keep a shop running. For a cabinetmaker kitting out a new space or a tradesperson chasing a second machine, buying at auction beats retail pricing.
Liquidation means everything goes, so expect mixed lots and bulk groupings alongside the bigger machines. Check the catalogue for condition notes and inspection times before bidding closes on 13 October.
-

End of Contract Plant, Equipment, Workshop Surplus & Spares
More detail
MGS has been running commercial, agricultural, mining and machinery sales out of Adelaide since 1980, and this end-of-contract clearance fits the mould: workshop surplus and spares from a site that has wrapped up. The mix suits buyers chasing serviceable gear rather than showroom stock, with plant attachments, fabrication equipment and boxed spares all in the one sale.
Kilkenny is a short run west of the Adelaide CBD, so inspection and pickup are straightforward for local buyers. Bring a trailer and check the catalogue for anything you can pair with what you already run.
-

Workshop / Engineering Machinery Collection, Loxton SA
More detail
mgs has been running commercial, agricultural, mining and machinery sales out of Kilkenny since 1980, and this catalogue pulls together workshop and engineering equipment alongside industrial plant and a collectables section. That combination usually means practical gear for the shed plus a few oddities worth a look.
The categories point to a working workshop clearance: plant and equipment, industrial machinery and tooling, with collectables mixed through. Buyers chasing specific brands or models should work through the lot list directly, since the spread covers everything from heavy plant down to bench gear.
Bidding closes 27 October 2026. Inspect before you commit, particularly on machinery where condition drives value.
-

Workshop Stock Clearance -Adelaide (Unused)
More detail
This is a clearance of unused workshop stock, and the big-ticket items are the garages and carports. Four are listed: one at 25ft x 33ft, two at 23ft x 22ft, and one at 21ft x 19ft. All are unused, so you’re bidding on new stock rather than secondhand gear.
Sizes like these suit a home workshop, extra vehicle storage, or a shed setup on a rural block. With 16 lots total and the close date still to be confirmed, check the full listing for the remaining stock and inspection details before bidding.
-

Workshop Stock Clearance -Adelaide (Unused)
More detail
The bulk of this sale is large-format garage and carport structures, all flagged as unused. The standout is a 25ft x 33ft garage, the biggest of the group, with three smaller units alongside it: a 23ft x 22ft garage, a second 23ft x 22ft garage, and a 21ft x 19ft carport.
The remaining lots round out a workshop stock clearance, so expect general industrial and liquidation gear beyond the shelters. With 16 lots total, it is a compact sale rather than a sprawling one, which keeps the bidding focused on the bigger items.
Worth noting for anyone planning to bid: these are unused structures, so factor in transport and assembly. The close date is still TBC, so check the listing for timing before you commit.

QLD Workshop Machinery, Small Tooling, & Groundcare Equipment (Online)
More detail
The lot list leans practical rather than pretty. Two stillages and an industrial environmental container unit cover storage and containment, while a pallet of generators and pumps plus a portable generator give you redundancy or spares depending on what you’re chasing. The Fischer Panda 15000 PVK-U is the heavy hitter of the power gear.
Tooling runs from a Makita M2401 cut-off saw to a National Mig-395 mig welder, with a RYOBI RA-C2550 air compressor and RYOBI OBL1820S blower rounding out the smaller items. The STIHL MS 261 C chainsaw is listed as parts only, so factor that in before you bid.
The headline lot for many will be the 2017 John Deere Ztrak Z930R, a commercial-grade zero-turn mower that suits contractors or anyone with serious acreage. With 12+ lots spread across various Queensland locations, check each listing’s pickup details before committing.
-

Unreserved Excess Warehouse Stock
More detail
Four lots, all unreserved, which means the hammer decides and nothing gets held back for a reserve price. The bulk of the offering is palletised: 19 pallets of mesh deck panels, 19 pallets of steel binning shelves, and 10 pallets of particleboard sheeting.
Rounding it out are 4 pallets of longspan shelving frames. Anyone fitting out a warehouse, workshop or storage shed should have a look at what these lots go for. Particleboard sheeting and mesh deck panels move quickly at this kind of sale, so work out your numbers before bidding opens.
Condition is not detailed in the listing. Inspect if you can, and factor freight into your budget given the volume involved.
-

Shelters, Generators, Workshop&More-Townsville (Unused)
More detail
The container shelters are the drawcard here. All four featured lots are unused, and the sizes are not token: a 60ft x 40ft heavy duty unit, a 40ft x 80ft heavy duty unit, a 40ft heavy duty with endwall, and an extra heavy duty 40ft. For anyone needing covered storage, a workshop roof, or a shed alternative on a rural or industrial block, these are worth a look.
Beyond the shelters, the catalogue runs to 107 lots spanning generators and workshop equipment, so there is plenty of supporting gear to sift through. Unused stock does not come through every week, and the range of shelter sizes means buyers can scale to the space they actually have.
The sale is run by Grays out of Garbutt, QLD. Close date is still to be confirmed, so check the listing for timing before you plan a bid.

End of an Era – Flexible Australia – Workshop, Spare Parts & Sundries Sale
More detail
Pickles is running this one as an end of an era sale for Flexible Australia, clearing out a Canberra workshop along with its spare parts and sundries. It is a working workshop dispersal rather than a curated collection, which usually means practical gear and stacked lots rather than showpieces.
The spare parts side is the drawcard if you run similar equipment or just want to build up stock. Sundries lots tend to go cheap because bidders chase the big-ticket items first, so there is value in the tail end of the catalogue.
Inspect before you bid, particularly on used workshop machinery and parts where condition varies lot to lot.
