Online Auction Experts Rev Up For New Platform

Innovative used plant and equipment auction website www.mrmachinery.com is gearing up to host its first auction dedicated to cars, vans, trucks and trailers.

The first Mr Machinery Motors auction will run from Tuesday 8th March at 0800 hours until Thursday 10th March at 1600 hours (GMT). The new format, which runs in addition to Mr Machinery’s fortnightly global used plant and heavy equipment auctions, provides an additional platform for construction companies, used vehicle dealers and the general public to buy and sell vehicles.

Mark Bacon, CEO for Mr Machinery, explained: "As well as requiring high quality used heavy machinery and equipment such as diggers, cranes and tractors, many of our customers also have a need for cars, vans, trucks and trailers too. Mr Machinery Motors is a logical progression and enables us to continue to cater for the requirements of both buyers and sellers.
