What's an auction like?

Wayne Bancroft Auctions are exciting events. Bidding is easy and we’re always there to help you on auction day. Got a question? Just look for someone with a WBAS name badge.

Here’s how it works:

Before the auction
  • Search our current auctions and check out the photos of the items that will be for sale.
  • Arrange equipment financing, if you need it.
  • Research what you are looking at to know current market values. 

Auction day
  • Check the auction schedule to find out when and where items will be sold.
  • Arrive and get a bidder number from the red trailer.
  • Inspection of items usually begins 1-2 hours before the auction.
  • Get a cup of coffee from our food vendor, get comfortable and start bidding!

After the auction
  • Pay for your purchase(s) at the red trailer.
  • Load your items or keep them with you until you have completed your purchases for the day.
  • Enjoy the items - knowing you paid market value.


Check the auction calendar – then come to an upcoming auction and see for yourself.
