FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Industrial asset recovery is the process of converting surplus, idle, or obsolete equipment into cash through various methods, including direct purchase, consignment sales, auctions, or private treaty sales. It helps businesses recover value from unused machinery, clear valuable warehouse space, and reinvest capital into operations, while promoting sustainability through the reuse of equipment.
We handle all types of industrial assets, including manufacturing machinery, production equipment, metalworking tools, printing and packaging equipment, forklifts and material handling equipment, power generation equipment, pumps and motors, spare parts and MRO inventory, and complete plant liquidations. Equipment can range from small tools to entire production lines.
The asset recovery process typically includes an initial consultation and site evaluation, an equipment inventory and condition assessment, a market valuation and recovery strategy, marketing to our network of buyers, handling all logistics and removal, and providing detailed documentation and payment. The entire process is managed to minimize disruption to your operations.

Timelines depend on your chosen method and the type of asset. Direct buyouts provide immediate cash within days, while auctions typically take 30-60 days from listing to payment.
