The right buyers see it
We sell into this category regularly, so the people who collect it already watch our sales. That is most of what an auctioneer is actually for.
Tools & Equipment
Tool and equipment auctions
Shop contents, hand tools, power tools and trade equipment. Whole shops sell better than the sum of their parts, and buyers travel for a good one.
What we sell
In this category
- Hand tools, planes and chisels
- Power and bench tools
- Machinist and woodworking equipment
- Welding and fabrication gear
- Complete shop contents
- Trade and contractor equipment
- Ladders, compressors and generators
Complete shops attract more buyers than partial ones. If you are clearing a shop, call before you start selling pieces off individually.

Why this sells better at auction
A dealer offer is one person's opinion on one day. An auction puts your items in front of every buyer who wants that category at the same time.
Not sure what you have?
Most people are not. Send photos or call and describe it. We will tell you if it is worth selling, and we will tell you when it is not.
