“Our November auction features a great selection of equipment items and trucks that can be put to work immediately,” said Christian Sonneville, regional sales manager at Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers. “For good quality construction equipment and trucks, this is a great place to go to before the end of the year. Our unreserved auction process is easy, highly efficient and every single item sells to the highest bidder on auction day, regardless of price.”

Some of the auction highlights include five 2010 718 Liebherr R934C HDS Litronic hydraulic excavators; a 2007 Liebherr PR734XL crawler tractor; a 2005 Liebherr HS885HD crawler crane; a 2009 5012 Vermeer T755 Commander 3 crawler trencher; two 2008 2300 Komatsu HD405-7 rock trucks; and two unused 2011 236 Hyundai HL760-9 wheeled loaders.

The equipment in the auction is being sold for more than 200 owners, including several equipment items and trucks for the Belgian company Aertssen—a market leader in earthmoving, specialized transport and cranes with projects in Belgium and abroad.

“Over the last couple of years we’ve frequently sold equipment at Ritchie Bros. auctions,” said Yves Aertssen, manager at Aertssen. “For the November auction in Moerdijk, we’ve supplied a number of well-maintained excavators, crawler tractors and trucks. When we’re selling surplus items and trucks to turn them into cash, we’d like bidders from all over the world to come and join the auction. A Ritchie Bros. auction provides us this opportunity, while we can stay focused on our own core business.”
