Inside This Week’s Brisbane Auction Market – 32 Upcoming Sales inc Ex-Military Gear, Caravans & Deceased Estates

This is an end-of-development clearance for a macadamia operation, so the gear is practical and ready for the next block. The tractors are the headline acts: the Case IH Puma 180 is a solid all-rounder for row crop work, while the John Deere 8360RT is a serious tracked unit that doesn’t come up often in this part of the world. If you’re setting up or expanding horticulture, the 2022 Maschio G300 rotary tiller and the dual row fertiliser bins are worth a close look.

The utes are the pick for tradies or farm managers. Three Hilux SRs spanning 2016 to 2018, all in the one sale, means decent supply and competitive bidding. There’s also a hooded sprayer, a soybean planter, and a Ferguson single row bin to round out the package. The sale closes on 17 September, so get your inspections done early and have your bidding sorted before then.

This one’s a straight individual lot, not part of a big fleet dump. The Trafic DCi 140 is a proven unit, with the 1.6-litre twin-turbo diesel that pulls well loaded and still returns reasonable economy. It’s a 2016, so you’re past the early depreciation but still inside a usable age for a trades van or a weekend tourer.

Check the odometer and service history on the listing before you bid. These vans are tough, but they don’t like missed belt changes. The DCi 140 has enough grunt for highway work, and the front-wheel-drive layout keeps it simple. If the body and floor are clean, this could be a bargain. Grays runs this as a timed online sale, so you’ll need to register and bid before the close date, which is yet to be confirmed.

This Free Spirit FSC20’4” is a proper family-sized van, measuring in at 20 feet 4 inches. It’s a 2014 model, so you’re getting a well-established build with the kind of practical layout that’s stood the test of time. Expect the usual en suite, kitchen, and living area, with enough room to move without feeling cramped.

Grays is running this as part of their ongoing caravan and motorhome listings, so the close date is still to be confirmed. That means you’ve got time to do your homework, but don’t leave it too late. Check the photos for wear and tear, and factor in registration and any compliance work if you’re planning to tow it straight away.

If you’re after a budget-friendly entry into caravanning, this one’s worth a look. The Free Spirit range is known for solid construction and sensible features, so it’s a decent bet for a first van or a cost-effective upgrade. Just make sure you inspect the condition report and ask questions before bidding.

The Mirage Sport is a solid mid-range option for couples or small families, and this 2021 build keeps things fresh with a full ensuite, kitchen, and decent living space. Look for the usual suspects in the spec sheet: 12V system, solar panels, and a fold-out awning.

Grays is running this as a single-lot caravan sale, not a clearance, so the condition should be above average. Given the Titanium badge, you’re getting a proper Australian-made van, not a flimsy import.

If you’re after a late-model van without the dealer premium, this is worth a close look. Check the service history and any stone-chip damage on the front, and budget for a thorough damp test before the close date.

The main draw here is the run of brand-new, never-used container shelters. You’ve got the big 40ft x 80ft double-trussed version for serious span, plus the 60ft x 40ft and 40ft x 60ft with an end wall. If you need covered storage or a workshop shell without the hassle of a permanent build, these are worth a close look.

Beyond the shelters, the lot list is packed with practical workshop items. Think heavy-duty tool boxes, generators, and the kind of gear that usually gets bought new at full retail. Since these are unused items, condition shouldn’t be a gamble, but check the photos and any inspection details before bidding.

The sale is based in Torrington, so if you’re in the Toowoomba region, freight or pickup logistics are manageable. With 121 lots, it’s a decent-sized clearance, and the closing date is yet to be confirmed, so keep checking the listing for the timer to drop.

The Sinotruk T5G beavertail is the standout for anyone shifting plant or gear. It’s a 6×4, so it’s built for heavy work, and the 2021 build means it’s still got plenty of life left. The beavertail body makes loading machinery straightforward, no ramps to wrestle with.

The Massey Ferguson 4709 is the other half of this pairing, and it’s a solid all-rounder for mixed farming or lifestyle blocks. It’s a 2021 model, so you’re getting modern emissions gear and decent cab comfort. For a two-lot auction, this covers both ends of the rural spectrum, truck and tractor, and both are recent enough to skip the usual old-iron headaches.

Check the listing for close date and inspection times. If you need a truck for hauling and a tractor for the paddock, this is a rare two-fer in one spot.

The standout here is the range of brand-new, never-used living units. The 40ft accommodation module with three rooms is the biggest single lot, ideal for a site office, granny flat, or temporary workforce housing. The expandable container houses are the ones to watch, though. Each one opens out to a proper two-bedroom layout, and the ensuites are already fitted, so you’re looking at something close to move-in ready.

The glass-wall expandable units are a cut above the standard steel box. They bring in natural light and feel less like a shipping container, which matters if you’re planning to use one as a permanent dwelling. Brown exterior finish on some lots means they blend in better than the usual industrial look.

Check the close date, because it’s still listed as TBC. That’s unusual, so don’t assume you have weeks. Grays runs these listings on their standard online platform, so registration is straightforward, but the bidding window could tighten without much notice. If you’re after a cheap, habitable structure that doesn’t need a tradie to set up, this is worth a serious look.

The headline act here is the 40ft high cube three-door side-opening container, a serious piece of gear for anyone needing wide access for loading or unloading. It’s unused, which means no rust, no dents, no surprises hidden in the corners. For smaller jobs, the 12ft roller-door unit is a practical option for site storage or a backyard workshop, while the 8ft and 9ft boxes are handy for secure gear storage or a compact shed.

All units are listed as unused, so condition should be consistent across the board. That’s a rare thing in the container market, where most stock has done years of sea time. If you’re after a clean, ready-to-use box without paying new retail prices, this sale is worth a look. Check the lot photos and measurements carefully, and factor in transport from Garbutt before you bid.

The centrepiece is a run of unused container shelters, built to take serious punishment. You’ve got the Heavy Duty 60ft x 40ft model for wide-span coverage, the 40ft x 80ft for longer setups, and a 40ft shelter with an endwall for enclosed storage. There’s also an extra heavy duty 40ft version if you need something tougher than the standard kit.

Beyond the shelters, expect generators to keep the lights on and workshop equipment for the shed. Since these lots are listed as unused, they’re effectively new-old stock, which is worth factoring into your bidding. The close date is still to be confirmed, so check the listing regularly for the exact time. If you need covered storage or reliable power without paying retail, this is a solid line-up to work through.

This is a straight-up buy for anyone needing compliant, ready-to-use fuel storage without the wait or freight drama of ordering new. The 22,000-litre self-bunded tank is the big-ticket item here, ideal for farms, depots, or workshops that need serious capacity without permanent installation. Self-bunded means no extra spill tray or concrete bunding required, which saves both time and site prep costs.

The three 980-litre fuel cubes are the practical pick for smaller operations, or for anyone who wants portable backup storage. They’re compact enough to move with a forklift or ute tray, and being unused, there’s no risk of contaminated fuel or rust from previous use.

Location is Pinkenba, so Brisbane buyers can inspect easily, and it’s worth checking the close date on the listing, as Grays often extends or updates timers. If you’re after bulk storage, the 22,000-litre unit is the one to watch, but the cubes could go cheap if bidding stays quiet. Bring a trailer or arrange transport early, because these are heavy items and pickup logistics are on you.

This one’s a proper estate clearance, not a picked-over collection. The vendor’s lifetime of accumulation means you’ll find everything from everyday household gear to serious collector pieces. Coins and stamps are likely to draw the dedicated crowd, but militaria and antique jewellery often slip through with less competition, so it pays to browse the full listing early.

Look for standout lots across the art section too, plus general antiques that could include furniture, glassware, or ceramics. Since it’s unreserved, every lot will sell to the highest bidder on the day, which can work in your favour if bidding stays quiet on the less obvious items. Check the condition reports where available, and factor in buyer’s premiums before you commit.

If you’re after a mixed lot of household goods for personal use or resale, the sheer range here means you can consolidate several purchases in one go. AAAC’s specialist focus on collectibles adds confidence to the cataloguing, so you’re not wading through vague descriptions. Set aside time to inspect if you can, and bid with a clear ceiling on the premium items.

Day one of this no-reserve fire sale is shaping up as a serious clean-out of high-value estate material. Pfeffers has built a name on quality antique and estate jewellery, so expect rings, brooches, and chains with proper hallmarks and old-school craftsmanship, not costume junk. Fine art is also a key part of the mix, so check the sale catalogue for original works and limited-edition prints that could fly under the radar.

Beyond the heirlooms, there’s a practical side for punters chasing everyday tech. The listing includes electronics and mobile phones, which means you might score a decent phone or a bit of AV gear for a song if you’re patient. With no reserve on anything, the opening bids are where the action starts, but don’t assume the big-ticket jewellery will go cheap. That’s where the serious competition usually lands.

If you’re in Brisbane or can organise a courier, this is worth a look on the close date. Pfeffers runs a tight ship, and the multi-million-dollar scale of the overall sale suggests the volume is there. Pick your lots early, know your limits, and let the no-reserve format do the heavy lifting.

This is day two of a serious multi-million dollar sell-off, and with no reserve prices, the starting bids are where the action lives. Pfeffers, based in Brisbane CBD, have built a name for digging out quality estate jewellery and fine art, so expect more than just run-of-the-mill lots. If gold, diamonds, or vintage timepieces are your weakness, this catalogue is worth a deep scroll.

Beyond the bling, the auction stretches into electronics and mobile phones, which can be a mixed bag but often throws up bargains for anyone chasing a second-hand upgrade or parts. The collector items are the wildcard, ranging from niche antiques to pieces that might not fit a standard category but still draw a crowd.

Check the lot list early and pick your targets, because with no reserve, the early bids set the tone. Day one would have cleared a chunk of stock, so day two is where the leftovers and fresh lots mix, often meaning sharper deals for those who show up ready. Brisbane pickup will be the go, so factor that in before you commit.

This Brisbane outfit has been running weekly sales since 1989, so they know how to keep stock moving. Expect the usual mix of trade-in ready tools and oddball lots that suit a punt. If you’re after a decent bench grinder, a stack of clamps, or a half-decent drill kit, this is the kind of catalogue where you can fill a toolbox without breaking the bank.

Keep an eye on the condition descriptions, as some gear shows honest wear from workshop use. The machinery lots tend to attract the tradies, but the collectables section can throw up a sleeper for the right buyer. With the close date still to be confirmed, check the listing regularly so you don’t miss the cutoff.

This Brisbane outfit has been running weekly sales since 1989, so they know how to keep the listings moving. The current online hardware auction pulls together a practical range of items, from power tools and hand tools to workshop equipment and light machinery. It’s the kind of sale where you can fill a toolbox or pick up something for a specific job without paying retail.

Buyers should check the lot list closely, as condition varies and there’s no substitute for doing your homework before bidding. With weekly turnover, the inventory is fresh, and it’s worth scanning for brand-name gear that often gets overlooked in the broader mix. If you’re after parts, fittings, or something for the shed, this one’s got a bit of everything.

This one’s got a proper estate feel, not just a pile of leftovers. The Porsche and Mazda are the headline acts, but the supporting cast is where the value sits. Expect the usual mix of tools, hardware, and household items that come out of a long-term owner’s place, the kind of gear that gets overlooked when everyone’s staring at the cars.

McDonald Auctions has been running weekly sales out of Brisbane since 1989, so they know how to move this stuff through. The Sumner Park location is easy to get to, and with the close date still to be confirmed, you’ve got time to sort out what you’re after. If the cars are anything to go by, the rest of the lot list should be worth a proper look. Check the photos, pick your lots, and be ready to bid when the timer starts.

This roxburys auction covers a broad sweep of numismatics and militaria. The coin lots include Commonwealth and pre-decimal Australian silver, plus some world coins and proof sets. Banknote collectors will find early Australian paper notes, including some scarce denominations.

On the militaria side, there are service medals, cap badges, and edged weapons. Jewellery ranges from modern sterling silver pieces to vintage gold rings and chains. The collectables section turns up everything from antique pocket watches to stamps and ephemera.

The auction date is yet to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing. Bidding will be online. If you are after a specific series or era, check the lot list as it fills out. This is a solid mixed catalogue for the casual collector or the dealer restocking.

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.
