TORONTO, ONTARIO (November 26, 2015) - Ritchie Bros., the world's largest industrial auctioneer, will sell 2,100+ trucks and equipment items at its next unreserved public auction in Toronto, ON, on December 7 - 8, 2015. Highlights include 190+ truck tractors, 165+ trailers, 60+ van trucks, 75+ compactors, 60+ excavators, 30+ skid steer loaders, 25+ wheel loaders, 110+ scissor lifts, 45+ boom lifts, 20+ tractors and more. All items will be sold to the highest bidders, without minimum bids or reserve prices. Bids can be placed in person, online at rbauction.com and by proxy. Ritchie Bros. will also hold unreserved auctions in Montreal, QC and Truro, NS in December.


'Our last Toronto auction of 2015 features one of the nicest selections of trucks and trailers we've ever sold in Ontario,' said Anna Sgro, Senior Vice President (Canada East), Ritchie Bros. 'We also have a great selection of construction, lifting and material handling equipment and more. Interested bidders can find detailed equipment information on our website, and can visit our Toronto auction site (in Bolton) to personally test and inspect the trucks and equipment that will be sold.'


Equipment will be sold for 390+ owners, including a selection of late-model truck tractors and trailers for Toronto-based TBG Environmental Inc., in operation since 1997.


'The trucks we're selling were purchased from Ritchie Bros. just last year and the trailers were purchased brand new. Both were used for just one contract, which end December 1, so we won't need them anymore. They are well- maintained and ready to go to work for new owners,' said Mark Bradley, CEO of TBG Environmental. 'I've bought and sold with Ritchie Bros. many times over the years as projects start and finish. It's an easy way to scale up and down quickly to suit the individual needs of a project. With Ritchie Bros. you have access to a great selection of used equipment at a fair price for both buyer and seller.'
