    Buyers and sellers welcome

    Our forklift auctions are open to all industries, business sizes, and experience levels. Whether you're a contractor looking for a single machine or an organisation managing a full fleet, we provide the key information needed to make confident decisions. Each listing includes model details, capacity, serial numbers, odometer readings (where available), forks, attachments (such as side shift), fuel type, tyres, lift height, and overall condition. If you're a buyer, you can bid from anywhere. Our online auction platform features clear sign-in steps, real-time updates, and the flexibility to participate from QLD, NSW, VIC, WA, or regional areas without leaving your site. You can search for well-known brands such as Toyota, Komatsu, Caterpillar, Cat, Hyster, Yale and Mitsubishi, plus a wide range of electric, diesel and LPG forklifts suited to both light and heavy-duty applications. For sellers, we offer a streamlined way to turn equipment into results. Our team manages photography, catalogue creation, marketing and auction coordination. You get access to a national buyer base and a selling method designed to minimise downtime. We handle enquiries, inspections and buyer communication so you can focus on your core operations. With thousands of active bidders and strong demand for forklifts across Australia, vendors benefit from competitive pricing and fast turnaround times. Whether you're clearing excess items, handling fleet renewal or preparing for a project wind-down, we can help you sell efficiently.

    Our forklift auctions in Australia

    We regularly run forklift auctions through our national network of auction facilities, as well as through dedicated online events. With locations in major capitals and regional hubs, we support buyers and sellers across NSW, QLD, VIC, WA, SA and the NT. Many forklifts are kept onsite at the vendor’s premises for convenience, while others are stored at our secure facilities. Our auctions include a wide range of forklifts and material handling equipment, including: Counterbalance forklifts, Reach trucks, Electric forklifts, LPG forklifts, Diesel forklifts, Rough terrain forklifts, Warehouse equipment and attachments, Yard and industrial forklifts and Low-hours units, ex-rental fleets and high-capacity models. Each forklift auction gives you a chance to buy machinery suited to your material handling needs, whether you work in warehouses, manufacturing plants, freight depots, shipping yards or construction sites. Many of the forklifts available come from well-maintained fleets, corporate businesses and national rental providers — offering reliable options at competitive price points. If you're buying, you can view catalogues in advance with details on height range, capacity, brand, condition and any attachments included. You’ll also find information on tyres, maintenance records when available, serial numbers, and photos showing the overall state of the equipment. This level of detail helps buyers choose the right forklift and reduces surprises at collection time. If you're selling, we provide campaign planning and exposure across our national buyer base, helping you achieve strong results. Your equipment is promoted through targeted digital marketing, email campaigns, and our established industry network. This approach ensures that your listing reaches active buyers who are ready to bid. Online auctions make participation simpler than ever. You can register, follow the auction, drive competitive bidding and complete your purchase from anywhere in Australia. Whether you're in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney or regional areas, you have full access to the same catalogue and opportunities.
