Trends & Insights
The last seven days have seen strong bidding on surrendered and uncollected property from Perth Airport, with the online auction closing July 5. Electronics and tools have been the standout categories, with an ASUS ROG Ally selling for $1,200 and a Leatherman multi-tool lot reaching $675 (auctions.com.au, Jul 5). The broader WA Salvage liquidation stream is also active, closing early July with industrial equipment like vacuum pumps and drain cleaners alongside hardware and timber from business closures (auctions.com.au, Jul 3). Ross’s Auctions issued a reminder on July 4 urging bidders to track these closing sales, noting the variety of machinery and goods available through the Welshpool complex (Facebook, Jul 4).
For buyers focused on heavy equipment, the machinery auction featuring tri-axle trailers, dewatering trailers, generator trailers, pump trailers and lighting towers closes at 3pm on July 7. Inspection is available July 6 at the Welshpool Complex, with collection scheduled for July 8 through July 13 (auctions.com.au, Jul 7). Separately, a steel products clearance from Landsdale is running through July 9, with inspection on the closing day and collection dates set for July 13 and 14 (auctions.com.au, Jul 9).
Looking ahead, the Karratha mining and commercial vehicles auction on July 10 and 11 is a major event for the week, featuring light vehicles, trucks, plant and machinery with a strong focus on mining sector equipment (auctions.com.au, Jul 11). Buyers should watch this sale closely for opportunities in heavy plant and support vehicles as the Pilbara asset cycle turns over.

Rod’s Tips
Ross’s is the the first point of call when think of any used asset purchase in WA. The quality of items is consistently high and the buyer pool is smaller than east-coast equivalents, which can mean better prices for buyers who do their research.
Preview days are essential at Ross’s. Condition is everything and in WA, everything is rode hard and put away wet. Ross’s staff are knowledgeable and happy to answer questions during viewing, use this to your advantage.
Online bidding is competitive but the room still wins close calls. For items you really want, attend in person if you can. The auctioneer has discretion on tied bids and often favours the room.

Timber, Tiles, Induction & Submersible Motors, PVC Elbows and Automotive Accessories Online WA Salvage Auction
More detail
This auction is stacked with building materials for anyone tiling a house or commercial space. The standout is the sheer variety of porcelain tiles: you’ve got timber-look Bode-Timber Tech in charcoal matt, stone-look Spencer ranges in nickel, acero, and ardesia gris, plus Reflections olive matt floor tiles. Each pallet is boxed with square metre totals clearly stated, so you can bid knowing exactly what you’re getting.
Don’t overlook the smaller lots either. The Tecm-Fresco Line grey wall tiles and JDD-Stardust dark grey porcelain offer good coverage for bathrooms or feature walls. And with 22m2 of luxury vinyl planks in the mix, there’s something for both tradies and DIY renovators. Ross runs regular forfeited goods and closure auctions from this Perth site, so the gear is typically ex-stock or overstock, not second-hand junk. Inspect before you bid if you can, but the lot descriptions are solid.

Hand Tools, Power Tools & Electrical Contractor Supplies Online WA Salvage Auction
More detail
This is a tidy mixed lot sale from Ross’s, covering gear that suits tradies, DIYers, and small contractors. The Stihl chainsaw is the headline item, but the volume of safety gear is worth a look: multiple boxes of Uvex Skyguard and Carbonvision glasses suggest a workplace clearance. There is also Guardsman lemon oil, a bolt cutter, rechargeable batteries, and a bundle of assorted spanners.
Buyers should factor in the untested status on the chainsaw and batteries. The lot also includes two portable showers with three conduits, which could be useful for site or emergency setups. Bidding closes on 8 July 2026, with inspection likely available at the Cannington depot.
-
Drain Cleaner, Paper, Wine Cooler Bags & Lighting Online WA Salvage Auction
More detail
This is a straight-up bulk play. The entire lot list is Clean Ease heavy duty drain cleaner, a commercial-grade product you would usually buy through industrial suppliers. If you run a plumbing business, manage a caravan park, or just want to stock the shed for years, this auction is worth a look.
Ross runs regular salvage sales out of Cannington, often pulling stock from WA Police forfeitures and business closures. The close date is 8 July 2026, so there is time to watch the bidding. With 12 lots all identical, you could grab one box or go hard across the whole lineup. No reserve games here, just a straight online salvage auction.

Action Figures, Toys & Household Online WA Salvage Auction
More detail
This is a salvage auction with a solid mix of pop culture collectibles. Every action figure listed is factory sealed, which matters for condition-conscious buyers. The DC Multiverse Gold Label Ocean Master appears three times in the lot list, so there is potential for multiples or duplicate listings worth checking.
Ross runs these sales regularly out of Cannington, often handling WA Police forfeited goods and business stock. The 12+ lot count suggests there could be more items added before the July 8 close date. If you collect McFarlane DC figures, this is a clean shot at unopened stock without hunting through retail. Check the listing for any additional household or salvage items that might get bundled in.

Workshop Equipment, Hydraulic Machine Attachments, Engines & Pumps Online Offsite Clearance Auction
More detail
This online offsite clearance covers serious gear for steel fabrication, concrete work, and site cleanup. The Essa JC5000 jaw crusher is a big ticket item: diesel driven with a 500mm by 300mm inlet and 15 tonne per hour capacity, powered by a Detroit VM air cooled diesel. For cable pulling, the 2012 Wenxian 90 kW hydraulic line puller runs a Cummins 6-cylinder and uses Rexroth hydraulics. There is also a trailer mounted full colour LED video screen with hydraulic lift and 360 degree rotation, capable of live feed from internet or USB/SD card.

Epiroc Pit Viper Drill, Epiroc DML Drill, Epiroc D65 Drills, Hitachi 890LCH Excavator & Caterpillar 994H Loader Online Offsite Auction
More detail
This is a straight-from-site clearance of major open-pit drilling and loading equipment. The Epiroc Pit Viper is a top-hammer blasthole drill built for high-production mining, while the DML and D65 models are rugged production drills suited to hard rock. The Hitachi 890LCH is a large excavator commonly paired with ultra-class loaders like the Caterpillar 994H, which is a 300-tonne behemoth. All six lots are offered as-is, where-is, with no reserve listed. Buyers should factor in transport from the Boddington site, about 130 km southeast of Perth. Ross’s runs regular online auctions from Perth, often handling police forfeitures and machinery clearances, so this is a rare chance for a mining contractor or plant operator to pick up a matched set of heavy gear without the usual dealer chain.
-
Mining & Commercial Light Vehicles, Trucks, Plant and Machinery Traditional Karratha Auction
More detail
Ross runs regular auctions from Perth, but this one is staged out of the Karratha Showroom on Bedrock Turn. It mixes WA Police forfeited items with business closure stock and machinery, so the condition and history will vary.
Standout lots include 4×4 utes, tipper trucks, and loader or excavator plant gear. If you work in mining or civil construction, this is a direct line to fleet-ready equipment without the retail price tag. The close date is still to be confirmed, so check the listing for updates.
-
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.

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.
