Do you buy an entire facility's surplus at once?

Yes. We buy full plant closures, site consolidations, warehouse and lab cleanouts, and mixed lots of equipment, spares, and MRO, all in a single transaction.

Do you take low-value items along with the high-value equipment?

In most cases, yes. Taking the entire lot, including lower-value items, typically works better for both sides than cherry-picking. Let us know upfront if that's what you're looking for.

How do you handle access, rigging, and removal?

Send us dock height, door widths, floor level, and what rigging is already on site. We coordinate removal around your access and timeline.

What if we have a tight removal deadline?

Let us know your removal deadline and any building or landlord constraints upfront. Firm timelines favor a single outright buyer, which is exactly what we offer.

How do I request an offer for a facility liquidation?

Send an asset list or spreadsheet, even a rough one, along with photos and your timeline, or click Get Your Offer. We'll schedule a walkthrough if needed and follow up with an offer.
