Ritchie Bros, a global asset management and disposition company, continues to see strong momentum across regions, particularly in the Middle East, where preparations are under way for a major year-end auction in Dubai (December 9 and 10).

The line-up already looks promising, featuring hundreds of used and unused machines and vehicles. Among the highlights are: 2023 Hyundai HX350AL, 2020 XCMG QY50KA, 2025 JCB 215LC (unused), 2023 Hamm HC119i, 2001 Komatsu HD785-5, and 2016 JCB 3DX.

Many companies, aware that another year is ending, find themselves facing a familiar scene: a line-up of unused machines – assets that could be converted into cash, freeing up space for new opportunities and balancing the books ahead of 2026.

For these businesses, consigning with Ritchie Bros. means not only guaranteed sales but that the machines will no longer sit idle, thanks to this opportunity to sell through multiple channels: unreserved auctions or private-treaty through Marketplace-E platform.

The year-end auction will feature hundreds of used and unused machines.

Sellers can be confident their equipment will be exposed to a wide international audience to find the right buyer; the process is fully transparent, and proceeds can be received in as little as 21 days, said the companyl

On the other side of the bidding aisle, companies planning for growth can access a wide selection of construction and agricultural machinery, trucks, and more. They can choose to participate in upcoming unreserved auctions or purchase the equipment they need directly through Marketplace-E, where they can either negotiate or buy at the listed price.

Every option ensures a transparent and simple process. With optional services such as logistics support, Ritchie Bros. helps buyers to start 2026 well-prepared.

HIGH ENGAGEMENT SETS THE STAGE FOR Q4

Ritchie Bros. is building momentum ahead of its End-of-Year campaign, riding the strong engagement generated during its Super September Q3 campaign across key equipment sectors in EMEA:

Construction & Industrial: Over 18,300 lots were sold, attracting more than 12,500 bidders – a five-year record – and more than 4,600 buyers from Spain, France, Italy, Germany, and the UK. Top equipment sold included hydraulic excavators-crawler, telescopic forklifts, mini hydraulic excavators, wheel loaders, and articulated dump trucks.

Transport: More than 820 transport lots were sold, drawing over 2,800 bidders – a five-year record – and more than 560 buyers from Spain, France, Italy, UAE, and the UK. SUVs, single-axle truck tractors and tandem-axle truck tractors, lowboys, and pickup trucks were among the most sold assets.

“Our Super September Q3 results highlight sustained confidence in the used equipment market and the value our auctions and digital platforms bring to sellers and buyers,” said Duncan Ainscough, Head of Sales at Ritchie Bros. EMEA.

“With record engagement from bidders, the upcoming End-of-Year auctions provide a prime opportunity to sell surplus equipment or secure the assets they need to get a head start on 2026,” he stated.
