FAQ
Which auction houses run regularly in Queensland?
Grays, Pickles, and Manheim run large vehicle and equipment sales. For collectables and antiques, look to Lloyds and smaller Brisbane boutique houses. Slattery covers government and commercial liquidations statewide.
Do QLD auctions offer interstate shipping?
Most major houses can arrange freight. For large plant or vehicles, get a transport quote before bidding. Brisbane to Sydney is typically $300–$600 for a vehicle.
Are there preview days for QLD sales?
Usually there is, but not always. Inspection periods, if offered, are listed on each auctioneer’s site, usually taking place the business day before the auction closes.
What buyer’s premium should I expect?
Most houses charge 15–20% plus GST. Some charge a sliding scale that reduces on higher hammer prices. Please check the item listing for specific details.
Trends & Insights
Brisbane’s residential auction clearance rate has slumped to a preliminary 27% for the week ending June 13, with Domain reporting just 37 properties sold under the hammer from 137 scheduled auctions (Domain, Jun 13). That soft buyer sentiment is not spilling across the board in other asset classes. Slattery Auctions is running its Brisbane Truck, Machinery & General EOFY sale out of Pinkenba, with trucks and industrial equipment closing around June 14-16 (Slattery Auctions, Jun 12). The contrast is instructive: while residential buyers are sitting on their hands post-budget, the industrial and vehicle segments are seeing active end-of-financial-year clearances.
Vehicle supply remains robust. Manheim Brisbane is running multiple weekly auctions for passenger, commercial, and salvage stock, including government fleet vehicles with hundreds of lots available (Manheim, Jun 13). Pickles has opened its Queensland Salvage Vehicles Auction from June 11, offering fixer-upper units from Mercedes, BMW, and Toyota to public bidders via simulcast (Pickles Auctions, Jun 11). The salvage segment continues to draw interest from both trade buyers and DIY enthusiasts looking for value in a cautious market.
On the collectables front, Albion Antique Auction Centre has a vintage sale running June 11-18, featuring 550-600 lots spanning antiques, silver, watches, and jewellery available via online bidding (Albion Antique Auction Centre, Jun 11). Specialist houses are maintaining their regular cadence, though buyer selectivity is likely to be the watchword as discretionary spending tightens. Watch for increased EOFY clearance volumes from industrial and vehicle vendors in the coming week, as sellers push stock before the financial year closes.

Rod’s Tips
Queensland government surplus runs year-round. State fleet vehicles, IT equipment, and workshop tools come through Grays and Slattery on a rolling basis, often ex-maintained and well-priced.
Mining and construction equipment cycles through QLD regularly. End-of-project disposals from the resources sector produce strong lots in Mackay, Townsville, and Rockhampton. Watch Lloyds, Pickles, and Slattery for these.
Factor in humidity when buying machinery. Coastal Queensland storage conditions can accelerate corrosion. Inspect carefully, or ask for a condition report, before bidding blind.
Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast estate sales move fast. These are popular and attract competitive bidding. Register early and have your maximum bid set before the sale opens.
Grays Online
Grays runs continuous online auctions and many auctions that are local pick-up only, offering decent opporutunities for Queenslanders.

2001 Mercedes Benz Sprinter Van
More detail
This is a single-vehicle listing, so there is no bulk or mixed lots to sort through. The 2001 Mercedes Benz Sprinter is a well-regarded platform for a DIY camper build, offering a robust diesel drivetrain and ample cargo space. Being a rolling auction from Grays, the close date is yet to be confirmed, so you will need to check the listing directly for the timer.
The van is listed under the caravan category, which suggests it may have some existing fit-out or be sold as a blank shell. Either way, the Sprinter’s reputation for longevity makes it a solid project if you are handy with a spanner. As with any Grays auction, factor in the buyer’s premium and arrange your own inspection if possible before bidding.
-
2024 Ezytrail Airlie 21 Caravan
More detail
This is a late-model family van with a tare weight of 2034 kg and an ATM of 2500 kg, so a mid-sized SUV will handle it. The Airlie 21 layout includes a front queen bed with innerspring mattress, a four-burner cooktop and grill, a 190-litre fridge, and a separate shower and toilet.
It rides on a 6-inch DuraGal chassis with 15-inch alloy wheels and an independent coil suspension. Standard extras include a 12V system with solar input, roll-out awning, and external shower. Being a 2024 model, it has very low wear and is still under factory warranty. Check the listing for the exact reserve and closing time.
-
2024 Ozstar Single Axle 11ft Caravan
More detail
This is a 2024 model, so it is still under factory warranty and has barely been used. The 11ft body keeps it compact enough for a standard car to tow, while the internal layout includes a double bed with innerspring mattress, a two-burner cooktop, sink, and a 12V compressor fridge. The caravan also features a shower and toilet combo, a gas hot water system, and a roll-out annexe for extra living space.
Buyers should note this is a single axle setup with a tare weight around 1000kg, making it a strong option for first-time caravanners or anyone wanting a nimble tourer. Check the Grays listing for current registration status and any service history. The auction close date is yet to be confirmed, so keep checking the listing for updates.
-
Shelters, Tool Boxes, Generators, Workshop&More-Tmba(Unused)
More detail
This is a straight-up industrial auction for buyers who need big covered space without the wait. The standout lots are the unused heavy-duty container shelters: a 60x40ft structure, plus multiple 40x60ft and 40ft options, some with end walls included. These are not secondhand or refurbished, so you’re getting them fresh for whatever site prep you’ve got in mind.
Beyond the shelters, expect generators, tool boxes, and general workshop gear to round out the catalogue. Given the scale of the shelters, this suits tradies, small business owners, or anyone setting up a rural worksite. The auction runs through Grays with 111 lots total. Check the close date online, as it’s yet to be confirmed.
-
2026 Harbour Caravan T19.6
More detail
This is a near-new caravan from Harbour, a brand known for solid family tourers. The T19.6 model offers a full-width rear bathroom with a separate shower, a north-south island bed, and a front lounge-dinette that converts. Standard inclusions run to a 12V compressor fridge, a gas cooktop and grill, a rooftop air-conditioner, and a 12V TV mount.
Buyers should note the payload capacity. With an ATM of 2240kg and a tare of 1840kg, you have 400kg left for water, gear, and the essentials. That is tight for a full touring setup. Check your tow vehicle’s towing capacity against the ATM, not the tare. The lot is listed as a rolling auction on Grays, so the close date is to be confirmed. Inspect the van in person at Pinkenba before bidding to verify condition and any optional extras like solar panels or a battery management system.
-
2012 Roma Caravans Elegance N6167
More detail
This is a standalone listing for a single caravan, not a mixed fleet auction. The Roma Elegance N6167 is a well-regarded pop-top model, offering a good balance of towing weight and interior space. Key features include a separate shower and toilet, a kitchen with a four-burner cooktop, and plenty of storage.
Buyers should check the condition report carefully, as these units can show wear from age and use. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so keep checking the listing for the final countdown. Given it’s a private sale style lot from Grays, expect the price to reflect market value rather than a clearance bargain.
-
2026 Harbour Caravan C16
More detail
The 2026 Harbour Caravan C16 is a lightweight, single-axle van designed for easy towing. It comes with a standard off-road coupling and 15-inch alloy wheels, making it suitable for unsealed tracks. Inside, you get a queen-size bed, a full kitchen with a gas cooktop and sink, plus a separate shower and toilet.
Buyers should note this is a current-model caravan with minimal use. Check the listing for the exact reserve price and the auction close date, which is yet to be confirmed. Given it’s a Grays Online sale, you’ll need to register and bid directly through their platform.
-
2010 Isuzu NLS 4×4 Motorhome
More detail
This is a factory-built 4×4 motorhome, not a conversion. It rides on a 2010 Isuzu NLS cab-chassis with a 5.2-litre turbo diesel and a GVM of 4495 kg. The rear body is a full-height fibreglass camper with a pop-top roof, giving you 2.1 metres of internal headroom when raised.
Inside you get a queen-size bed, a four-seat dinette that converts to a double, a three-burner stove, a 12V compressor fridge, and a cassette toilet. There is also a separate shower cubicle. Power comes from a 100Ah deep-cycle battery and a 160W solar panel. It has a 100-litre fresh water tank and a 70-litre grey water tank.
The odometer shows 198,000 km. Check the listing for the reserve price and any buyer’s premium. This is a standalone lot in Grays’ rolling format, so the close date is listed as TBC.
-
2024 Ezytrail Parkes 13 MK3
More detail
This is a single-lot auction for a current-model Ezytrail Parkes 13 MK3, so you are buying a virtually brand-new van without the dealer showroom price. The MK3 is Ezytrail’s latest revision, featuring a strengthened chassis and improved stone protection over earlier models.
Key specs include a Tare weight around 1800kg, making it towable with a mid-size 4WD, and a generous ball weight for stability on rough tracks. The interior layout typically offers a front queen bed, a full kitchen with a four-burner cooktop and grill, plus a combined shower and toilet. Off-grid capability comes from a 100Ah battery, solar panel, and 95L water tank.
Check the listing for the exact build sheet, as individual vans can vary. Given it is a 2024 model, it likely still has remaining factory warranty, which adds peace of mind for the buyer. Do your own inspection before bidding, as Grays auctions are sold as-is.
-
2024 Sensational RV SRV 1.0
More detail
This is a late-model Sensational RV SRV 1.0, a popular choice for couples or solo travellers thanks to its compact, lightweight design. Being a 2024 build, it’s likely in excellent condition and comes with the modern features you’d expect from a current-production van. The SRV 1.0 is known for its easy towing and functional layout, making it a solid option for weekend getaways or longer trips.
As a Grays Online listing, you’re dealing with a straightforward auction format. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so check the listing regularly for updates. Given it’s a single item, not a fleet sale, the bidding will be direct. Inspect the van in person if you can, or review the photos closely for any wear. This is a chance to grab a near-new caravan, so know your top dollar and bid accordingly.

Multi-Vendor: EOFY Sale
More detail
This is a cleanout-style auction with a strong focus on earthmoving and compaction gear. The star lot is the 2010 CAT 623G open bowl scraper, a serious piece of plant for anyone moving dirt in volume. Alongside it are three multi wheel rollers: two Bomag BW 2S RH units from 2010 and 2012, plus a Caterpillar CW12. That gives buyers options depending on age and budget.
The sale is multi-vendor, so condition and maintenance history will vary across lots. Given the EOFY timing, vendors are likely motivated to clear stock. Check the photos and any inspection notes carefully before bidding, especially on the older gear. With 94 lots, there should be supporting items like attachments or parts mixed in, so scroll through the full list.
Pickles
Pickles Auctions Queensland operates from Eagle Farm (Brisbane) and Townsville, running vehicles, mining equipment, salvage, and plant. Large CSG and mining auction programs run out of Rockhampton and regional QLD.
-

Final Unreserved Brisbane Skip Bin Auction
More detail
This is a straight-up clearance of Marrel skip bins in the 6m³ size, all going without reserve. The lots are split into groups of three or four bins, so you can grab a small fleet in one hit. A couple of lots include serial numbers, which suggests some have been tracked or serviced.
The auction closes on 23 June 2026, and the gear is located in Willawong, Brisbane. If you run a skip hire business or need bulk waste handling capacity, this is a clean way to add multiple units at once. No messing around with singles or mixed lots. Just uniform 6m³ Marrel bins, lot after lot.
-

Huge Engineering and Manufacturing Workshop Closure Auction
More detail
Pickles is handling the clearance of a substantial manufacturing facility in Sumner, Brisbane, with over 12 lots going under the hammer on 25 June 2026. The standout is the 2022 HAAS ST-30Y CNC lathe, a serious piece of kit for any machine shop, paired with its bar feeder for automated production runs. For sheet metal work, there is a 2020 ASSET Industrial Australia SM-PB135/4000 brake press and a 2022 ACCURLcmt MS8-8X4000 hydraulic CNC guillotine, both recent models with plenty of life left.
Supporting gear includes a 2017 Metalmaster HG-860B hydraulic guillotine, two CNC plasma profile cutters (an ART 9000HDP and an unbranded unit), and a FARR Camfil Gold Series dust extraction system that any workshop would want. The 1995 Geka Hydracrop 80/S hydraulic metal worker is a tough old unit for structural fab, while the Colchester Triumph 2000 gap bed lathe is a classic manual machine still in demand. A 2026 Swanco trailer and the 2023 Isuzu D-MAX LS-U ute round out the lot list, offering a practical vehicle option. Buyers should inspect the CNC gear closely for tooling and control condition, as these are closure items.
-

BK Civil Group Planned Turnover Auction
More detail
Pickles is running the BK Civil Group planned turnover auction from their Eagle Farm site. This is a straight-up disposal of owned plant and trucks from an active civil outfit, not a fire sale. The mix of prime movers, excavators, and trailers will suit anyone in the haulage or earthmoving game.
The Kenworth T409SARs are the headliners in the truck section, backed by a 2009 Western Star Constellation 4800 FX and a 2007 Western Star 4800FX. The excavator lineup features two 2021 Hitachi ZX85USB-5A units plus the larger ZX360LCH-5B. A couple of Boomer trailers and the 2006 Kenworth T350 round out the fleet.
Buyers should inspect before bidding. The close date is 25 June 2026, so there is time to get on site at Eagle Farm and kick the tyres. These are working machines from a known Queensland contractor, not auction-retread stock.
-

National Caterpillar & Major Brand Parts Sale
More detail
Pickles is running this national parts sale with a tight three-lot offering, all closing on 26 June 2026. The standout is the industrial radiator pallet, sized for a CAT 994F, which is a massive wheel loader. That single component could be a goldmine for anyone maintaining a 994F fleet or looking for a hard-to-find cooling solution.
The other two pallets hold unknown tanks with a Caterpillar 6060 reference, likely from a mining excavator. There is also a separate hydraulic cylinder listed without further details. Buyers should inspect the condition of these items, as the tanks and cylinder come with no specification. If you run Caterpillar gear, this is a targeted chance to grab genuine parts without dealer pricing.
-

EOI: 2010 Multipurpose Temporary Bridge
More detail
This expression of interest gives buyers the chance to secure a 2010 multipurpose temporary bridge located at Island Plantation, Queensland. It’s a complete structure suited for a range of applications, from site access to temporary crossings. Given the specialised nature of the gear, this is a niche opportunity for civil contractors, resource companies, or local councils.
The bridge is situated on Island Plantation Road, so inspection access is straightforward. Buyers should factor in transport and installation costs, as this is a heavy, oversized item. The EOI format means Pickles is gauging market interest before setting a reserve, so serious bidders should register early and get their paperwork in order. If you’ve got a project that needs a quick, robust crossing, this one’s worth a close look.

A Steinway Grand Piano from the Estate of William Robinson
More detail
This is a rare single-lot auction, and the piano is a serious piece of musical history. The Model B-211 is Steinway’s professional-grade grand, favoured by concert pianists and institutions for its rich tonal range and responsive action. Coming from the estate of William Robinson, the Archibald Prize winning painter known for his lush, expressive landscapes, this piano likely served in his creative environment, adding provenance beyond the instrument itself.
Buyers should note the auction closes on June 23, 2026, and bidding is entirely online through Leonard Joel. Given the single lot format, there is no room for bundling or volume discounts. Inspections may be arranged through the auctioneer in Brisbane. If you are after a premium grand piano with a notable backstory, this is the one to watch.

ANTIQUE AND VINTAGE COLLECTABLES AUCTION, 520 LOTS
More detail
This is a solid general collectables catalogue with enough depth to keep a dedicated browser busy. Coins and stamps are the backbone, but the militaria section often turns up unusual pieces like cap badges, medals, or edged weapons worth a second look. Jewellery lots tend to mix gold and silver items with costume pieces, so check the descriptions for hallmarks.
Art buyers should scan for original works and prints mixed into the listings, often from lesser-known Australian or European artists. Antique furniture and smalls round out the sale, with plenty of tableware, glassware, and decorative objects. The 520-lot count means the auction runs all day, so bid early on the lots you want and factor in the buyer’s premium. Inspection times are usually listed a few days before the close.
McDonald Auctions

Online Hardware Auction
More detail
This weekly sale from the long-running Brisbane auction house covers everything a tradie or home workshop enthusiast could want. Power tools are a highlight, with a mix of battery and corded units from Makita, DeWalt, and Ryobi alongside the Stihl and Milwaukee lots. There is a substantial amount of garden equipment too, including line trimmers, blowers, and a pressure washer.
For heavier work, the Cigweld 140-amp inverter welder is a solid entry-level unit, and a selection of hand tools and workshop accessories fills out the catalogue. Buyers should note the close date is yet to be confirmed, so check the listing regularly. Inspection is likely available before the auction closes, standard for this vendor.
-

Online Steel Auction
More detail
This weekly online sale from a long-running Brisbane outfit covers a broad sweep of tradesman and hobbyist gear. Steel stocks are the headline: RHS, SHS, angle iron, flat bar, and checker plate in various lengths and gauges. There is also a solid showing of pipe and tube, including galvanised and black steel.
Beyond the metal, the lot list includes bench grinders, vices, welders, and drills. Collectors will find old hand tools, fishing gear, and assorted bric-a-brac. The auction closes on a date still to be confirmed, so check the listing for the final countdown. Pickup is from Sumner Park, making it handy for anyone in Brisbane’s west or Ipswich corridor.
-

Online Hardware Auction
More detail
This is a weekly staple for anyone who needs workshop gear or collectables. The auction house has been running these sales since 1989, so they know how to move stock efficiently. The current list includes a mix of power tools, hand tools, and small machinery, with the Stihl saw and Clarke compressor likely to draw the most attention.
Buyers should check the lot photos for condition, as gear like this can range from well-used to near-new. The sale is online only, so factor in the buyer’s premium and arrange your own pickup from Sumner Park. No close date is set yet, but weekly auctions typically wrap within a few days of listing.

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST (“EOI”)SALE OF BUSINESS Under Instructions from Nick Keramos & Bill Karageozis of DVT McLeods In The Matter of Kingsthorpe Labour Co. Pty Ltd (Administrators Appointed) Trading
More detail
This is a complete business wind-up, not a piecemeal clearance. Hymans is handling the disposal under instructions from DVT McLeods administrators for Kingsthorpe Labour Co. Pty Ltd, so the buyer gets everything needed to restart or strip out.
The lot list covers standard office fit-out gear: desks, chairs, filing cabinets, and IT hardware including monitors and printers. There are no heavy vehicles or industrial plant here, it’s purely a white-collar setup. The EOI format means you name your price for the whole lot, not bid per item.
No close date is set yet, so keep an eye on the listing for updates. If you need a turnkey office for a new venture or want to flip business assets cheap, this is worth a look.
-

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST (“EOI”)Sale of Artificial Intelligence For Use In Project Management Designed To Give Early Warnings As To Profitability And Cost Under Instructions from Bill Karageozis & Niki
More detail
This is a rare chance to pick up a bespoke AI tool, not off-the-shelf software. Hymans is handling the sale from their Sydney base, with the asset located in Queensland. The system is built to give early warnings on project profitability and cost blowouts, which could be a game-changer for a construction or engineering firm.
Buyers should note this is an expressions of interest campaign, so there is no set close date yet. The intellectual property rights are included, meaning you get the code and the logic. If you run complex projects and want an edge on margins, this is worth a serious look. No lot list is available, so contact Hymans directly for a demo or specs.

Roxburys Auction No. 163
More detail
This is a broad-based collectables auction from Roxburys, covering four main categories. The coin section includes Australian pre-decimal silver and copper, plus decimal proof sets and world coins. Banknotes range from early Commonwealth issues to modern polymer notes, with a few error notes likely to draw attention.
Militaria collectors will find medals, badges, and edged weapons, including some World War I and II items. The jewellery lots feature gold and silver pieces, gemstone rings, and vintage watches. If you deal in second-hand goods or stack bullion-related items, the scrap value alone on some lots could be worthwhile.
Auction dates are yet to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the Roxburys website for the close time. Given the mix of categories, you’ll want to inspect the full lot list online before bidding. No buyer’s premium details were provided, so factor that into your limits.
