"We already have equipment from more than 800 owners from across the United States, as well as Canada, Mexico, Central and South America and Europe — this is a global event," said Jeff Jeter, president, U.S. Sales, Ritchie Bros.

With three weeks still to go, the Ritchie Bros. Orlando auction already looks to have one of the best selections of equipment the company has ever assembled. More than 10,000 equipment items and trucks are already listed to sell in the six-day unreserved auction — approximately 39 percent more items than this time last year. As always, every item will be sold without minimum bids or reserve prices.

General equipment highlights include 620+ excavators, 475 compactors, 400+ skid steers, 325+ loaders, 235+ dozers, 135+ articulated dump trucks, 125 cranes, 355+ aerial work platforms, 370 truck tractors, 400+ trailers and more.

"We already have equipment from more than 800 owners from across the United States, as well as Canada, Mexico, Central and South America and Europe — this is a global event," said Jeff Jeter, president, U.S. Sales, Ritchie Bros. "By adding a sixth day to this year's event we are able to accommodate more consignors and equipment. We expect to add additional equipment every day leading up to the auction to help make this sale massive!"
