Sell the equipment. One sale, one settlement, one check.

McLemore Auction sells construction, farm, shop, and industrial equipment at auction — one machine or a whole yard — usually within 30 days. We photograph, catalog, market to the right buyers, collect payment, and hand you a detailed settlement and a check.

For contractors, farms, machine shops, fleet managers, lenders, and estates with equipment to sell.

This is for owners selling equipment outright, not for reseller inventory. A McLemore Auction representative will review the details and call you back.

Send the details and we will call you back — usually the same business day.

How it works

1

Tell us what you have

Tell us what the equipment is, where it is, and when it needs to be gone. Serial numbers and hours help but are not required to start.

2

We catalog, market, and sell it at auction

McLemore Auction photographs, catalogs, markets to equipment buyers, manages bidding, and collects buyer payments.

3

Buyers pick up, you get a check

We schedule buyer removal and send you a documented settlement and the sale proceeds after the auction closes.

FAQ

Can you sell one piece, or does it have to be a whole fleet?

Both. A single excavator or tractor can ride in one of our recurring auctions. A whole shop or yard gets its own dedicated sale.

What does it cost?

Commission is paid from the sale proceeds. We review the equipment, timeline, and access before proposing terms so there are no surprises.

Does the equipment have to be moved?

Usually not. We sell equipment where it sits and schedule buyer pickup around your access requirements.

How fast can this happen?

Many equipment auctions can be cataloged, marketed, sold, and settled in about 30 days after engagement.
