The Queensland auction will be held in Brisbane on 18 September, with the Victorian auction in Geelong on 20 September.
Close to 1350 pieces of equipment will be sold in the two auctions, with each piece sold to the highest bidder, regardless of price. There will be no minimum bids or reserve prices.
The Brisbane event will have almost 700 equipment items including more than 45 wheel loaders, 40 hydraulic excavators, 25 articulated dump trucks and 10 prime movers.
At Geelong, there will be close to 650 equipment items, including more than 30 wheel loaders, 25 hydraulic excavators, 20 prime movers and more.
On 23 October, an auction is planned for Bunbury in Western Australia. This will have a selection of late model articulated dump trucks, wheel loaders and other equipment.
Bidders can participate in the auctions in person or online in real time or by proxy.
“All three of our upcoming auctions feature a large selection of late model equipment from wheel loaders to hydraulic excavators, articulated dump trucks to prime movers and more,” said Warwick Mackrell, vice president of Ritchie Bros Auctioneers.
“In Brisbane and Geelong alone we will sell more than 20 unused 2012 wheel loaders, and another six a month later at our auction in Bunbury, near Perth.
?In just two days, we will sell close to 1350 pieces of equipment to buyers all around the world?in fact, our last Brisbane and Geelong auctions in June attracted bidders from 39 countries.?
