Auctions Services

Companies often have assets they need to liquidate, and an auction can be a productive way to do so. It’s important to partner with someone who has the experience, credentials, and knowledge to run your auction efficiently. Auctions spur excitement around all assets and bring a multitude of bidders to a sale.

Schneider Industries has specialized in asset liquidation via online and onsite auction services for almost 30 years. Our professionals know how to use the intricate auction process to their advantage for our customers. Focusing on customer service, our experience in business and industrial liquidation auctions guides customers through the process. 

Our professionals have an extensive worldwide network and experience working with businesses in a variety of industries. We bring that global experience to every auction, understanding your goals and finding solutions that fit your needs.

Auction Process

While auction participants see a smooth process, the intricate background work of setting up an auction takes a professional. With years of experience, we lead live auctions and bring in a professional auctioneer who understands the products. Schneider Industries offers Real-Time Internet Bidding to coincide with the onsite actions, providing the seller with more bidders.

Our clients and buyers mainly participate in online bidding-only auctions, competing from the comfort of their homes or offices. Schneider Industries partners with Bidspotter.com to bring thousands of potential customers.

Partnering With Us for Auction Services Involves:

  • Inventory – We will organize and inventory all equipment in an orderly and efficient manner. This inventory will list the manufacturer, model number, serial number, and dimensions where needed.
  • Advertising – We can implement a global marketing program to reach owners, purchasing agents, and engineers worldwide through email campaigns, web ads, social media, and journals.
  • Client and Customer Relations – We will field all requests for information about the equipment, capabilities, condition, and date available and scheduling of appointments for inspection of equipment prior to sale.
  • Insurance – We will utilize the following programs: Comprehensive Business Liability, Workers’ Compensation, Employers Liability, and Automobile. Coverages can be added upon request.
  • Payment and Collections – All payments will be made to Schneider Industries. Schneider Industries will then account for all funds and present them to the client minus our expenses and commissions. Buyers will make all purchases using wire transfers, certified checks, money orders, or company checks. All funds will and must be cleared prior to the removal of equipment.
  • Equipment Removal – Equipment is sold “As Is, Where Is,” but coordination is still necessary for removal. We will handle all necessary arrangements to see that removal is non-disruptive. Buyers will be responsible for all removal costs and, as such, cost avoidance for the seller.

Online Only Auctions

Schneider Industries facilitates asset sales online or in conjunction with real-time auctions conducted orally by a professional auctioneer. Online auction services are ideal if you have a plant in production or are selling assets from multiple locations.

By appointment, bidders can inspect the equipment and do their due diligence before the auction. An online auction lets bidders buy from home or office, giving sellers access to a wider range of potential buyers.

Our Auction Services Include:

  • Machinery and Equipment Auctions – Businesses often have surplus machinery and equipment. Rather than having your assets sit idle, let Schneider Industries help auction your equipment to the highest bidder. This brings value and liquid cash, which you can invest in other areas of your business.
  • Commercial Real Estate Auctions – Commercial real estate property owners and developers can sell and bid on our auctions. Assets may include factories, warehouses, and office buildings, among others.
  • Complete Turn-Key Facility Sales – We assist companies, banks, and brokers across North America in selling complete facilities. This includes real estate, equipment, MRO, and intellectual property. Whether it be sales through a traditional listing, a current auction, or an orderly negotiated sale, Schneider Industries can offer innovative ideas and structure a detailed plan of action to assist in the sale of a complete working industrial facility or real estate.
