How it works
IronPlanet is the world’s leading online auction company for buying and
selling used construction and agricultural equipment. Unlike other auction
companies, our equipment is Inspected & Guaranteed. Our convenient,
reliable, and easy-to-use auction approach minimizes hassles and maximizes both
buyer and seller satisfaction.
A seller consigns equipment to an IronPlanet auction for lower commission
and cost. The seller then preps the equipment (if they choose) at own location,
and makes the equipment available for inspection.
IronPlanet sends an inspector to their
yard, and thoroughly inspects the equipment at the seller’s location. IronPlanet
publishes the inspection report on IronPlanet.com and markets the equipment to
targeted prospective buyers around the world.
Buyers review the inspection reports
online and can place PriorityBids before auction day. IronPlanet’s ringmen
solicit bids from interested bidders during the weeks leading to auction day and
on the day of the auction. The buyer places bids online, and on auction day, the
highest bidder wins the auction.
After the auction, IronPlanet connects buyers
with transportation and finance companies. The buyer pays into a secure account.
IronPlanet confirms payment, and the seller releases the equipment to the
buyer’s transportation company. The buyer accepts delivery of the equipment
while the seller receives payment.
Looking to buy? In addition to being a simple, convenient, and
hassle-free way to buy used equipment at auction, buyers can bid with confidence
knowing the equipment they're interested in has been inspected and there will be
no surprises. Start your search for your next piece of used equipment - browse
by auction date, type, or make.
Need to sell? IronPlanet enables sellers to turn their used
equipment into cash faster — as quick as four to six weeks — and do it more
profitably, with lower commissions and costs. Contact your local sales
