Farm Equipment Auctions

Create a Farm Tractor and Combine Auction

Farm equipment auctions offer a fast, efficient way to buy and sell agricultural machinery, tools, and surplus inventory. These auctions attract farmers, ranchers, contractors, and ag dealers looking for reliable gear at fair prices—whether upgrading fleets, closing operations, or clearing out seasonal surplus.

Our auctions are typically online and bid at the item with smartphone on item inspection day, allowing local buyers to inspect machinery up close while enabling remote bidding from neighboring counties or across the state.

💡 Why Farm Equipment Auctions Yield Strong Results

1. High-Value Inventory

Tractors, combines, and irrigation systems often sell for thousands to tens of thousands per unit—delivering significant per-event revenue.

2. Motivated Buyers

Farmers and ag professionals buy based on need and timing, creating urgency and focused bidding on the right equipment.

3. Full Equipment Lifecycle Coverage

Auctions help sellers move everything from showroom-ready to project-grade machinery—turning idle assets into cash.

4. Extra Close Rate via Deal Working

Selling Lane’s deal working feature allows sellers to negotiate unsold units post-auction and capture an additional 10% in sales.
