-
Commercial LCD Displays, Office Furniture & IT Online Welshpool Auction
Commercial-grade LCD display screens, office furniture, and IT gear are up for auction through Ross in Welshpool, WA. The lot list is packed with Samsung VM46R-U and NEC P552/P553 signage screens, all reported in working condition when removed, though they come without remotes, stands, or cables.
-
Leisure, DIY & Homewares
A big batch of leisure, DIY, and homewares is going to auction through Lloyds in WA. The lot list includes a Eumig Mark S 807 D Super 8mm sound projector, assorted DVD titles like Iron Man and How To Train A Dragon, plus multiple lots of gate thumb latches and masquerade eye masks.
FAQ
Why does WA have so much ex-mining equipment at auction?
Western Australia’s resources sector regularly cycles out equipment at project end, during downturns, or when upgrading fleet. This produces a steady flow of well-maintained but heavily used plant through houses like Smith Boughton and Slattery.
Can I buy remotely and arrange freight from WA?
Yes. Most major auction houses offer freight coordination. Perth to Melbourne or Sydney for a vehicle is typically $1,200–$2,000 depending on size, get a quote and factor this into your maximum bid.
What buyer’s premium is standard in WA?
Typically 15–20% plus GST. Check the specific auctioneer’s terms as they vary between houses and sometimes between lot types.
Are there WA-specific auction houses worth following?
Ross’s definately. For specialist plant, SBA and Slattery frequently offer WA lots. Pickles and Manheim for vehicles.
Trends & Insights
Vehicle and equipment supply in Western Australia tightened this week, with Pickles running its weekly Western Australian Government Vehicle Auction on July 7 from Bibra Lake, offering official government fleet stock with online only viewing (Pickles Auctions, Jul 7). Slattery Auctions countered with a broader offering, closing its Perth Motor Vehicle Auction and Perth Truck/Trailer & Machinery Auction from July 13 to 15, the latter listing 115 units from the Jandakot site, signalling ongoing demand for heavy gear in the resources corridor (Slattery Auctions, Jul 11).
The collectables segment saw a niche surge as Burns & Co launched its Model Cars & Collectables Timed Online Auction, Parts 1 and 2, closing from 6pm AEST on July 8 and 9 from its Bayswater facility, tapping Perth’s enthusiast base for diecast and memorabilia (Burns & Co Auctions, Jul 8). Separately, Ross’s Auctioneers opened a distinct inventory stream with its Perth Airport Surrendered & Uncollected Property Auction on July 10, running through July 19, where lost terminal items from personal electronics to baggage will be sold with proceeds directed to WA charities (Ross’s Auctioneers, Jul 10).
Buyers should watch for closing bids in Slattery’s truck and machinery sale and further lost property lots from the airport auction as mid July deadlines approach.

Rod’s Tips
Ex-mining equipment can be a genuine value opportunity, if you know what you’re buying. High hours and harsh conditions are common. A pre-purchase inspection from a local mechanic or engineer is worth the cost on anything significant.
Perth estate sales are less competitive than east coast equivalents. The bidder pool is smaller, which can mean better prices for patient buyers on furniture, collectables, and household goods.
WA government fleet auctions produce clean, low-km vehicles. State fleet is typically well-maintained, with complete service records. Manheim and Pickles handle the bulk of these on a rolling schedule.
Check freight costs before bidding on large items. The tyranny of distance is real. A cheap tipper truck in Karratha may cost more to move to Perth than it’s worth.
Lloyds Auctions
Locations in Sydney, Gold Coast, and Melbourne. Lloyd’s Auction include insolvency, liquidation, loss adjuster, ex-resort, State Government and more.

Leisure, DIY & Homewares
More detail
This is a mixed-bag online auction that leans heavily on home improvement and entertainment gear. The standout is the vintage Eumig Super 8mm sound projector, a solid pick for film collectors or anyone dabbling in retro cinema. There are also six separate lots of gate thumb latches, ranging from six to ten per lot, which could suit a fencing job or small hardware business.
On the lighter side, you get boxes of masquerade eye masks, assorted kitchen utensils including forks and knives, and a selection of jewellery stands. The DVD bundle offers easy filler for a media library. With 12 lots and a mix of practical and novelty items, it pays to scroll through everything before you bid. Check the close date of 12 July 2026 and factor in the Lloyds buyer’s premium.
Ross’s Auctioneers & Valuers
Ross’s Auctioneers & Valuers is WA’s largest and most active auction house, running sales from their Welshpool Complex (453 Orrong Rd), Kalgoorlie Showroom (64 Great Eastern Hwy), and Karratha Showroom (Gap Ridge Estate). Diverse sales include vehicles, mining plant, engineering equipment, IT, jewellery, antiques, and business closeouts.

Caterpillar MD6250 Rotary Blasthole Drill Rigs Online Offsite Auction
More detail
These are serious mining rigs, not backyard gear. The MD6250 is a track-mounted, self-propelled drill designed for rotary or DTH blasting applications. Expect heavy-duty components like a 38-metre mast, hydraulic rod changer, and a dust collection system built for Pilbara conditions. The auction runs offsite, meaning the gear is already in the field.
Buyers should note the three lots are sold separately, so you can target one rig if that’s all you need. Ross’s handles a mix of police forfeitures, machinery, and business stock from their Perth base, but this is a specialised industrial sale. Check each lot’s hours and service history before bidding. The close date is 13 July 2026, so there’s time for a site inspection if you’re serious.
-

Commercial LCD Displays, Office Furniture & IT Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
This is a straight-up business clearance auction with over 12 lots, and the headline act is the sheer volume of professional display screens. You’re looking at multiple Samsung VM46R-U 46-inch units and several NEC 55-inch models including the P552 and P553, plus a pair of NEC 46-inch P463 and V463 screens. All are listed as untested but reported working at the time of removal, so factor in a power lead and a test before you rely on them. A few Samsung units even come in their original boxes, which is handy for transport.
The auction is run by Ross, who regularly handles WA Police forfeited stock, business closures, and machinery. That means the rest of the catalogue likely includes office furniture and IT bits worth a look if you’re kitting out a workspace. The screens are bulky items, so arrange pickup or courier from the Welshpool complex. Bidding closes 13 July 2026.
-

Toyota Landcruisers 200 Series & Hiluxes Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
Ross’s is clearing a batch of late-model Toyotas from WA Police and other sources. The lineup includes a 2020 Landcruiser 200 Series VX diesel with under 80,000 km, plus several 2021-2023 Hilux SR5 and Rogue dual-cabs. Most are in white or silver with factory alloy trays or tubs.
Buyers should check the service history and any police modifications like light bars or console upgrades. Some vehicles have minor cosmetic wear from fleet use, but drivetrains are typically solid. The auction closes 13 July, and inspection is available at the Welshpool complex before bidding.
-

PPE, Uniforms, Safety Boots, Welding & Hardware Clearance Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
This auction from Ross covers the practical end of the workshop and worksite. You’ll find multiple lots of safety boots and steel-capped footwear, plus bulk lots of hi-vis shirts, pants, and coveralls. Welding gear includes helmets, gloves, and consumables, while hardware ranges from hand tools to fasteners and workshop accessories.
The lot list also features respirators, safety glasses, and ear protection for anyone kitting out a crew. Some lots are boxed and palletised, so you can grab a full set of gear in one hit. Everything is located at the Welshpool complex on Orrong Road, with inspection times likely available before the close on 13 July 2026.
-

Perth Airport Surrendered & Uncollected Property Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
This is a classic grab-bag from lost luggage and abandoned goods at Perth Airport, with over 12 lots spanning electronics, watches, and accessories. The Apple gear is the headline: four iPad 7th Gen units (three with 128GB storage, one with 32GB and a cracked screen), three iPad 6th Gen models, plus a pair of iPhone 6s and an iPhone 7. All are untested and come without chargers, so factor in replacement costs.
The watch selection has some serious potential. An Audemars Piguet quartz chronograph with a brown leather strap is listed as authenticity unverified, which is a gamble but could pay off. There is also a Michael Kors rose gold chronograph, a Guess Sport with day/date, and a Nixon, all untested. For power gear, you get an Eaton uninterruptible power supply, a Linak battery module, and two Powerhouse LiFePO4 lithium batteries (12.8V, 12Ah) that appear possibly unused.
The rest is a mixed tray of darts, portable power banks, and wireless earbuds from Anko, JBL, and Blueant. Nothing is tested, and no returns apply, so treat this as a speculative play. Ross’s runs these regularly, so if you miss out, another batch will likely surface. Bidding closes 19 July 2026.
-

Desktop PC’s, Monitors & General IT Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
This is a solid lineup for anyone needing office-ready computers or spare parts. Most units have OS installed and 8GB RAM, with storage ranging from 240GB SSDs to 1TB HDDs. The Dell Optiplex 3060s are a standout for a budget office refresh, while the iMac 21.5 inch offers a complete all-in-one option.
Buyers should note that nearly every item is marked as untested and comes without a power cable. One Dell Optiplex 3060 is listed as having no power to the unit, so factor in some risk. The Lenovo ThinkCentre M700s are lighter on RAM at 4GB but still usable for basic tasks.
Ross runs these sales regularly from the Welshpool complex, often dealing with WA Police forfeited stock and business closures. With 12 lots and a mix of working and faulty gear, this auction suits anyone who can do their own testing or repair. Close date is 20 July 2026.
-

Exploration, Surveying & Rescue Equipment Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
This is a specialised sale for anyone in the mining, civil construction, or emergency services sectors. The lot list includes a Trimble 3305 DR total station, a Sokkia SET5 total station, and a range of handheld GPS units from brands like Garmin and Magellan. There is also a rescue tripod with a manual winch and several sets of safety harnesses and lanyards.
Buyers should note this is an online-only auction, so you need to register and bid through the ross platform. Pickup will be from the Welshpool complex after the close date on 20 July 2026. Given the technical nature of the gear, check each lot’s description carefully for included accessories and condition notes.
-

Commercial Refrigeration Display Cabinets Welshpool Online Auction
More detail
This auction focuses on gear for cafes, bakeries, or bottle shops. The lot list shows True two-door upright fridges, an Atosa three-door unit, and a Williams upright freezer, all in used condition. A Saber heated display cabinet is also included, ideal for hot food service.
The auction is online only, closing on 20 July 2026. Inspection is likely available at the Welshpool complex on Orrong Road. Buyers should check the condition reports and factor in removal costs from Perth. Ross Auctions regularly handles business closure stock, so this could suit someone kitting out a new shop or replacing old units.
-

WA Slab n Burl Stock Welshpool Online Auction
More detail

The lot list includes graded furniture-grade slabs in popular Western Australian hardwoods, plus burls and thick blocks for sculptural work. Several pieces are already milled and dried, ready for immediate use.
Buyers should check the condition notes on each lot. Some slabs show natural checking and bark edge, which is typical for live-edge timber. The auction closes on 20 July 2026, with a standard online bidding process. Inspection is available at the Welshpool complex before the close. Pickup arrangements are outlined in the auction terms.
-

Jarrah Logs, Fence Posts & Strainer Posts Online Offsite Auction
More detail
Ross is known for handling a mix of WA Police forfeitures, machinery, and business clearances, but this one is straight rural gear. The lot list shows jarrah logs in various lengths and diameters, plus treated and untreated fence posts. Strainer posts are included, likely heavy-duty for corner or end assemblies.
If you’re fencing a block or need milling timber, this saves a trip to the hardware. Check the photos for grading and condition. Pickup is offsite at Crampton Road, so factor in transport. The auction closes 21 July 2026, with no extensions. Bid on individual lots or grab a bundle if the listing allows.
-

Major Brand White Goods, Kitchen Appliances & Home Decor Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
This auction is a clean-out of surplus stock and liquidated homewares, so expect new and near-new condition on most items. The lot list includes stainless steel freestanding cookers, built-in microwaves, rangehoods, and front-load washing machines from the big three brands. For renovators or flippers, there are matching kitchen appliance packages that would cost thousands more retail.
Home decor sections feature lamps, vases, mirrors, and artificial plants from showroom displays. Ross’s runs these sales regularly from the Welshpool complex, so inspection is straightforward. Check the close date carefully: 26 July 2026. Pickup will be from the Welshpool depot, so factor in transport for large items. No reserve on most lots, which is where the real value sits.

2019 Chevrolet Camaro SS Two-Door Coupe Online Welshpool Auction
More detail
Ross is handling this one from their Welshpool complex, part of their regular run of police forfeited and seized goods.

Exterior is in red with black leather interior, and the car includes dual-zone climate control, heated seats, and a 9-speaker Bose sound system.
Buyers should note the vehicle will be sold unregistered and will require a roadworthy certificate before registration in WA. Inspection is available on site at the Welshpool complex during business hours prior to the close date. Payment terms are strict: a 10% deposit within 24 hours of the auction close, with balance due within 7 days.

-

Firewood Logs, House Poles, Sleepers, Jarrah Logs, Fencing Posts & Boards Online Offsite Auction
More detail
This is a straight-up timber clearance, ideal for anyone needing bulk building or fencing materials. The jarrah logs are a standout for their durability and local appeal, while the house poles and sleepers suit structural or landscaping jobs. Fencing posts and boards round out the mix, giving buyers options for farm or property maintenance.
Ross runs regular auctions from Perth covering police forfeitures, machinery, and business stock, so this offsite sale fits their pattern of practical, no-frills listings. Bidders should inspect the lots on site at Crampton Road before the close on 28 July 2026. No delivery details are mentioned, so factor in your own transport for heavy timber.

-

2026 Austrack Campers Canning X19
More detail
This is a 2026 model, so it’s current stock with the latest build specs. The Canning X19 is Austrack’s popular forward-fold layout, giving you a full-height living area when set up and a low-profile towing position on the road. Expect a heavy-duty off-road chassis, independent suspension, and a strong focus on self-sufficiency for remote trips.
Inside, the X19 typically includes a queen-size bed, kitchen with gas cooktop and sink, and a decent amount of storage. The fold-out annexe adds covered living space. Given it’s a single unit from Grays, condition should be as-new or demonstrator quality. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so check the listing for the timer. This is a straight pick for anyone wanting a capable off-road camper without the wait on a new order.
-

Unreserved Mixed IT
More detail
The bulk of this sale is built around Dell OptiPlex 7440 AIO units, which are solid for office refreshes or remote workstation setups. If you need a reliable tower server, the PowerEdge T420 is worth a look for light virtualisation or file storage duties.
Buyers should note this is unreserved, so pricing will find its own level. Check the condition notes on each lot before bidding. Pickup is in Jandakot, so factor in freight if you are not local.

More detail

It’s paired with a Maxitrans ST3 tri-axle, which is a solid choice for heavy transport work. The diesel fuel storage tank adds practical value for any operation needing on-site refuelling, and there’s a 40ft container included for secure storage or workshop space.
This is a compact, focused auction for anyone in civil construction, mining support, or transport. The gear is surplus, so condition is key. Check the photos and arrange a viewing in Hazelmere if you can. With only four lots, this one will move fast.
-

40ft High Cube Shipping Containers – Kwinana Beach
More detail
Both containers are ex-lease stock, so they have seen prior service but are being offered in usable condition. The 2013 unit and the 2012 unit are listed individually, meaning you can bid on one or both depending on your storage or site needs.
High cube containers give you that extra foot of internal height over a standard container, which makes a difference if you are storing pallet racking or bulky gear. Check the listing photos closely for dents, door seal condition, and floor integrity. These are heavy items so factor in transport costs from Kwinana Beach to your location before you bid.
Pickles
Pickles Auctions WA is based at the corner of Phoenix Road and Sudlow Road, Bibra Lake — running vehicle, salvage, and equipment sales mostly online. Strong mining and government programs from Perth.

EOI: MacLean RB3-018 Rock Breaker (EV) Unused and 2 x Normet Spraymec (EV) 1050Ws
More detail
These are not your run-of-the-mill plant items. The headline act is the MacLean RB3-018, a purpose-built rock breaker designed for underground mining and running on electric drive. It has never been used, so you are looking at a zero-hour unit without the usual wear and tear.
The two Normet Spraymec 1050Ws are also electric vehicles, purpose-built for shotcreting in underground tunnels. These are highly specialised machines for mining and civil tunnelling operations. The 2023 model year on one of them means it is nearly new.
Expressions of Interest close on 30 July 2026. The gear is located in Bibra Lake, WA. If you are in the underground mining game and need rock breaking or shotcreting capacity, this is a rare chance to grab near-new, specialist EV equipment without the factory lead time.

Selling with Donelly’s Online Auctions
More detail
Donelly’s Online Auctions is clearing out a Mt Lawley estate with a solid mix of antiques and collectables. The catalogue leans toward traditional household finds: cutlery sets, ceramic vases, crystal glassware, and framed art. Jewellery buyers will spot a few rings and brooches, while furniture hunters can check in for side tables, cabinets, and lounge chairs.
This is a classic estate clearance, so condition varies. Pay attention to the photos for wear on silver plate or chips on porcelain. Bidding closes 31 May 2026, giving you time to browse. Pickup will be in Mt Lawley, so factor in transport for larger pieces. No reserve prices are listed, which often means bargains if you’re patient.

Sale #6043 – Local Government & Shire Auction
More detail
This is a solid local government clearance, so the gear is maintained and the titles are clean. The vehicle list includes several Toyota HiLux and Ford Ranger utes, plus a Mitsubishi Triton and a Holden Colorado. For heavier work, there is a Toyota Coaster 23-seat bus and a Nissan Cabstar tray truck.
On the machinery side, look for a Loadmaster 2.5-tonne trailer, a Digga post-hole digger, and a selection of slashers and mowers. The industrial section covers a Clarke compressor, a Lincoln welder, and a Honda generator. Everything sells without reserve, so the starting bids should be low. Check the photos and inspection times before the close on 28 July.
-

Sale #4090 – Transportable Buildings & Sea Containers
More detail
This is a straight-up clearance of surplus transportable assets, no reserve holding things back. The lot list includes standard 20ft and 40ft sea containers, some with wind locks and double doors, plus insulated and refrigerated units for those needing climate-controlled storage. On the building side, there are demountable offices, crib huts, and site amenities with power points, lighting, and plumbing connections already fitted.
Buyers should inspect before bidding. Many units show signs of previous site use dents, faded paint, minor rust which is normal for this gear but affects resale value. The auction runs to a strict schedule, so register early and have transport organised. If you need a workshop shell, temporary site office, or secure container storage, this sale has the volume to keep prices competitive.
-

Sale #1191 – Small Construction, Agricultural, Attachments & Transportables
More detail
This is a straightforward unreserved sale, so everything will sell to the highest bidder on the day.

There’s also a 20ft shipping container and a portable toilet block.
On the machinery side, the Kobelco excavator is a tidy late-model unit with only 1,500 hours showing. The Franna crane is a serious bit of gear for any yard or workshop, rated to 18 tonnes. Smaller items include a 2019 Kubota BX2350 tractor, multiple concrete mixers, a 2008 Toyota HiAce van, and a few ride-on mowers. A 2020 6×4 box trailer and a 2022 7×5 caged trailer round out the light transport options. Check the photos closely for hours and condition, as there are no warranties on unresold gear.
