Need Auction Transport?

Auctions provide an excellent opportunity to bid on heavy machinery, farming equipment, motorcycles, mining equipment, cars, boats and heavy equipment items you may need for your business or for yourself. The main benefit of auctions is that you can expect a lower-than-retail price, ensuring a great discount. 

Auctions can be exciting, competitive and incredibly lucrative but one thing many buyers don’t consider is how they will transport their items from the auction to their destination. Most auctions offer self-pick-up but if you are buying from an interstate auction, or if you are buying heavy machinery that requires a special truck, then this may not be an option.

Auction Transport FAQs

What is Auction Transport? 

Auction transport refers to the logistics involved in moving items purchased at auctions to their final destination. This process is crucial, especially for large or heavy items, and involves coordinating with auction houses, buyers, and transport providers. The issue with auction transport is often you only have a VERY short time window to collect your items. This is generally 48 hours so it’s important to have your auction collection organised as soon as possible, potentially before you’ve even won the bid. 

How Does Auction Transport Work? 

After you have purchased the item, you will need to organise auction collection. Auction houses can extend this service to you in some instances, but not always and usually not for a great rate.

Best Rated Transport specialises in auction equipment transport and have operators across Australia who can pick up your goods and safely deliver them to your location, whether this is a car, a motorbike or a large dozer. 

We work with auction houses to organise transport and logistics on your goods. Transport companies may need licences for specific types of items, especially vehicles and this is something we can also arrange. 

*Keep in mind that each auction house may have specific rules regarding bidding, payment, and transport. 

What Does it Cost to Transport Equipment from an Auction?

Auction transport costs vary depending on the item, the distance and the type of transport needed. Local transport is typically cheaper than interstate while heavier and larger items usually incur higher transport fees.

Specialised transport for heavy or fragile items may cost more and there may be additional costs for storage and specialised equipment needed such as pilot cars, crane lifts, low loaders or deck wideners. 

You can take a look at our General Freight Calculator for details about freight costs. The easiest way to find out how much it cost to transport equipment from an auction is to request free auction transport quotes.

How Do I Compare Auction Transport Quotes? 

1.Start by choosing Move Date. This is the date the item needs to be picked up. You can choose “flexible dates” later down the track or you can put in the date the auction ends. 

2. Choose your PickUp and Delivery Location  including the Auction Location and where you need the goods delivered. 

3. Tell us what item you need picked up and let us know it’s coming from an Auction. Add details about the equipment needs including quantity, weight, height and width, if known. Attach an image if possible as this is the best way to ensure an accurate quote. 

4. Press submit and you’re done! You will receive quotes via email within a day or less. 

You can also contact Best Rated Transport directly to further discuss your options or if the pickup is urgent. We can also provide multiple auction transport pickups if you are looking to buy several items of machinery over time. 

Can the Auction House Organise Transport for Me?

This depends on where you’re buying from. Many auctions have self-pick-up options as well as their own transport and logistics companies that they partner with.

Our goal at Best Rated Transport is to provide you with options for auction transport to ensure you receive the best rate. It’s free to receive and access quotes and no log in is required. We simply want to keep you informed on what options you have available when it comes to auction collection and auction transport Australia.
