Inside This Week’s Adelaide Auction Market – 28 Upcoming Sales inc Caravans, Estate Contents & Plant Equipment

The PlayStation 3 lot is the clear drawcard here, sold as a complete package with three controllers and games, so you’re not chasing missing bits afterwards. The stereo system comes with multiple speakers, which suggests a proper setup rather than a single-unit job, though operation is something to verify before bidding.

For the retro or oddball crowd, the Electromatic 1000 by Hanimex is worth a look. It’s a vintage piece that could appeal to collectors or anyone after a quirky shelf item. On the practical side, the five monitors plus a box of keyboards gives you bulk office or workshop gear in one hit, handy for a home setup or flipping individually.

It’s a small, four-lot sale, so it’ll move quickly. Check the condition notes on each item, especially the electronics, and factor in pickup from SA. Bid accordingly and you could walk away with a decent haul for not much.

This one’s a mixed bag in the true sense, with 12-plus lots spanning practical gear and pure fun. The RC Farm Tractor and Trailor with tipping dump trailer is a standout for anyone after a decent toy, while the 2.4 GHZ 9-channel alloy and plastic RC bulldozer adds some serious remote-control firepower. On the practical side, there’s a 160-piece first aid kit, a wrist blood pressure cuff, and a dash camera with a 4-inch IPS screen.

The tech angle is worth a look too. A Full HD 1080P sports camera claims waterproofing, and the personal mini wifi body camera offers 24-hour continuous recording. Smart watch fans get a 1.99-inch screen model with alarm clock functions, while the video game console packs thousands of retro games for a nostalgia hit. Homewares include notebooks, candles, and a collection of children’s books and comics, plus a four-piece Littlest Pet Shop set.

Bidding is online only through Lloyds, and with the close date sitting at August 20, there’s time to sort through the list. No pickup details are in the listing, so check the auction page for collection terms before you commit. It’s a decent spread for a small budget, especially if you’re after a bit of everything.

The Smeg coffee machine is the standout here, a 60cm inbuilt wall unit that’ll appeal to anyone redoing a kitchen or kitting out a cafe. It’s the kind of thing that retails for serious coin, so expect some late action. The Maestro Genesis air purifier is a solid second pick, especially with winter allergies doing the rounds.

Beyond the big-ticket items, there’s a practical run of commercial gear: jumbo roll tissue dispensers, paper towel dispensers (including a four-pack of metal units), and toilet dispensers. Handy for a shop, office, or shed renovation. Also in the mix are a couple of electric toothbrushes, a handheld blender, and an electric teeth cleaning set, so there’s a bit of filler for low-stakes bidding.

It’s an 11-lot online auction, so it won’t drag on. Lloyds runs these regularly, but the Smeg alone makes this one worth a look. Check the lot photos and condition notes before you bid, particularly on the electrical items.

Scammell’s estate auctions pull from private homes and galleries, so the mix here is worth a dig through. Expect timber dining tables, armchairs, and bedroom suites that have seen proper use, not flat-pack rentals. Kitchen lots will likely cover crockery, glassware, and small appliances, while the back of the catalogue usually hides tools, books, and the kind of inherited clutter that sells for a few bucks and gets repurposed.

Bidding runs both online and in-room, which suits anyone who wants to eyeball the goods before committing. The close date is set for 17 August, so there’s time to inspect, but not so much that you can afford to procrastinate. If you’re after a decent sideboard or a full set of dinner plates without paying retail, this one’s worth a look.

Scammell Auctions is putting together an estate sale in Norwood SA, closing 17 August. This one covers the household category, so think dining tables, sideboards, chairs, artwork, mirrors, and the kind of bric-a-brac that fills a lifetime of accumulation. There’s likely to be a bit of everything, from everyday practical items to pieces with a bit more character.

The auction runs with both online and in-room bidding, so you can either sit at home and click or front up in person. If you’re after furniture or household goods, this is the sort of sale where you can pick up solid timber pieces for less than flat-pack prices. Check the lot list early, note what you want, and be ready when the close date rolls around.

Scammell’s August showcase leans on the estate and gallery side, so the stock skews toward quality over volume. You’re not wading through toolboxes and office cast-offs here; this one’s about sideboards, wall art, ceramics, and the kind of pieces that fill a renovated terrace or a country homestead.

The in-room option is worth using if you’re local, because you can inspect condition up close before the close date. Online bidding runs through the same catalogue, so remote buyers aren’t locked out, but remember the 17 August deadline. Pay attention to the furniture lots, particularly anything with timber that’s been listed without a brand, because estates often hide decent mid-century or repro pieces that don’t photograph well.

If you’re chasing a specific item, check the lot list early and set your own limit. Scammell runs these showcase events regularly, but the mix here has enough variety to pull in both decorators and flippers, so don’t assume the good stuff will go cheap just because it’s a regional auction.

The trailers are the pick of the lot for anyone needing serious hauling capacity. The custom float dual axle is built for the job, while the 2009 Treg dual axle offers a proven, road-ready option. With no reserve on either, they could go for well under replacement cost if the bidding stays quiet.

For the workshop crowd, the Okuma LS450 metal lathe is a solid, heavy-duty unit that holds its value. Pair it with the Ohaus Defender 3000 for accurate weighing on site. Close dates are yet to be confirmed, so check the listing regularly and be ready to move when the timer starts.

This is a factory-fresh unit, not a demo and not a dealer leftover with a few hundred km of test towing behind it. The FUQI-F5SD is Jasmine’s larger layout, with a proper queen bed up front, a decent kitchen with a three-burner cooktop and sink, and a rear bathroom with a separate shower. The slide-out opens up the living area to give you room to move when the weather turns ordinary.

It’s built for gravel and corrugations, with a rugged chassis, independent suspension and off-road coupling, so it’s not just a driveway queen. Being unused, you’re getting full factory warranty remaining and no wear on the tyres, brakes or seals. Check the photos for the exact fit-out, but expect stoneguard mesh, a decent water tank setup and external hatch storage. If you’ve been waiting on a new van without the showroom premium, this is worth a serious look before the close date.

This is a full plant wind-down, not a tidy-up of odds and ends. The core of the sale is the processing and fabrication equipment, the kind of heavy-duty stuff that costs serious money new. Expect to see extrusion lines, injection moulding machines, and the associated tooling and dies, along with the ancillary gear like hoppers, conveyors, and cooling systems that make a shop floor run.

Beyond the big ticket items, there’s the usual mountain of support equipment that comes out of any factory closure: compressors, workshop tools, racking, and materials handling gear. If you’re in the plastics game, or you’re a scrappy operator looking to expand capacity without paying retail, this is worth a close look. The auction closes on 18 August 2026, and with mgs running it, you can expect a straightforward process. Get your inspections done early and bid with a plan.

This is Part 4 of an ongoing clearance from a gaming PC supplier, so the stock is consistent and tested. The lot list shows Gigabyte Aorus graphics cards, Samsung monitors, and a range of desktop PCs. There are also standalone components like CPUs, RAM sticks, and power supplies.

The auction house has been running regular commercial and deceased estate sales since 1980, so they know how to move gear efficiently. If you are building a rig or restocking a small repair shop, this is a solid chance to pick up branded hardware without the retail markup. Check the individual photos for condition, as some items may be ex-display or open box.

This is a metal fabrication estate clearance, so the focus is on the workshop side of things. You’ll find the sort of kit that comes out of a working trade: grinders, clamps, measuring tools, and likely some steel stock or offcuts. For anyone who does their own welding or light fabrication, this is a chance to pick up consumables and tooling without paying retail.

The household lots are secondary but worth a look if you’re already bidding. Think older furniture, kitchen gear, and general effects that tend to go cheap in these clearances. The auction house has been running sales since 1980, so the process is well oiled and they know how to move volume.

Bidding closes on 24 August. If you’re in Adelaide’s north-west, it’s a short drive to inspect before the deadline. Bring cash or have your card details ready, and check the condition of anything you plan to bid on. The real value here is in the workshop lots, but the household stuff can fill a trailer for little outlay.

mgs, the Kilkenny SA outfit that’s been shifting commercial and deceased estate stock since 1980, has put together a solid hospitality lineup. The blast chiller is the headline act, but the supporting cast is where the value sits: think bain-maries, prep sinks, shelving, and probably more mixing bowls and utensils than you can poke a spatula at.

If you’re fitting out a kitchen from scratch, this is the kind of sale where you grab the lot in one go. Commercial fridges and freezers are always worth a look, and the oven range should cover everything from a pizza joint to a full-service restaurant. Check the photos for brands and condition, but expect the usual mix of heavy-use gear and stuff that’s barely been touched.

The auction closes 1 September, and bidding will move fast on the obvious items. If you need a blast chiller for HACCP compliance or just want a serious upgrade on your home setup, this is your chance to beat the trade suppliers.

This one’s coming out of Adelaide’s western suburbs, and mgs has been shifting commercial, ag, mining, and machinery stock from the same Kilkenny yard since 1980. That history means the lots tend to be straight-up trade-ins and surplus from working operators, not picked-over household clearances.

The civil contractor focus points to gear like excavators, loader backhoes, tipper trucks, and compaction kit, with the usual support items such as generators, pumps, and site tools likely mixed in. If you’re chasing a second-hand machine for a small crew or need a backup unit for a specific job, this catalogue’s worth a dig through.

Check the photos and condition reports before you bid, because machinery at these sales can vary from well-maintained to well-used. The close date is 8 September 2026, so you’ve got time to inspect, but don’t leave your bidding to the last minute.

The lot list mixes heavy earthmoving plant with practical support gear. The Komatsu loader and Cat excavator are the headline acts, but there is also a 2012 Isuzu FTS 800 tipper truck and a 2012 Hino 700 series rigid truck for haulage work. A pair of Mack trucks, a 1988 R688 and a 1992 R688, point to older fleet stock that might suit parts or a budget project.

MGS, the Adelaide-based auction house running this one, has been shifting commercial and rural gear since 1980. Their sales tend to attract serious operators, so expect bidding to firm up on the cleaner items. The Broken Hill location means transport costs will factor in, but the gear is coming from a mining town where machinery gets worked hard and maintained accordingly. Check the photos for tyre condition and wear on the loader bucket and excavator tracks.

This is a niche offering from mgs, a local auction house that has been clearing commercial and industrial gear since 1980. The Data Room Floor System is the headline act, but the catalogue typically mixes in office furniture, IT peripherals, and general business assets from the same source.

Buyers should inspect the condition of the rack enclosures and patch cabling before bidding. The system appears to be a pulled-out setup from a working environment, so check for compatibility if you are piecing together your own server room. No close date is set yet, so keep an eye on the listing for updates. If you need a turnkey data floor on a budget, this is worth a look.

This Kilkenny SA sale is a straight-up opportunity for builders and concretors. The core offering is a large volume of galvanised steel formwork, the kind of gear that holds its value and gets reused job after job. You’ll find standard panels, corner units, and the connecting hardware to make them work.

The auction house behind it, mgs, has been running commercial and industrial sales since 1980. That means they know how to move machinery and building materials efficiently. The close date is yet to be set, so keep an eye on the listing for the deadline.

If you’re pouring slabs or walls, this is the sort of lot that can save you a heap on new gear. Check the photos for condition and make sure your transport is sorted before bidding.

MGS has been running sales from this Adelaide suburb since 1980, and this one is squarely aimed at commercial operators. The lot list features new and unused industrial chillers, cooling towers, and associated pumps and controls. If you need to upgrade a factory or warehouse cooling system, this is a chance to buy at auction prices rather than retail.

Buyers should note the close date is yet to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing for the deadline. Given MGS handles regular commercial and machinery sales, inspection arrangements are likely straightforward. The gear is in Kilkenny, so factor in pickup logistics if you are bidding from interstate.

This is a specialised sale for anyone in the mineral exploration game. The core offering is a complete drilling setup, which typically includes a track or truck-mounted rig, support vehicles, and down-hole tools. Mgs has been running these commercial and mining auctions out of Adelaide since 1980, so they know the gear.

Buyers should inspect the condition of the drill rods and core barrels, as these are high-wear items. The mud pumps and water injection system are critical for deep hole work, so check for service history. If you are a junior explorer or a contract driller looking to upgrade, this package could save you months of sourcing individual components. The close date is still to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing for updates.
