Prior to auction day, registered bidders can place bids through IronPlanet's PriorityBid service, which will automate bidding on the buyer's behalf if the buyer is not able to attend the auction. The system benefits both sellers and buyers, offering visibility for the auction process, reducing transport costs and providing inspection reports for all items of equipment.
