Like most other non-essential businesses, we felt it necessary to down tools when instructed by the government and when little was known about coronavirus. When the rules were relaxed, the timed online auction system we have been using for nearly 10 years meant it was a straightforward process to continue our auctions safely. A number of our competitors who still hold live sales implemented online auctions to keep going – for us it was, and still is, business as usual.

Gateway Auctions is a trusted North West auction house with national coverage that attracts 15,000 buyers from across the UK and overseas every year.

We deal with construction equipment, from diggers and dumpers to forklift trucks and access platforms, and ‘distressed assets’ acquired as part of repossessions.

We look forward to welcoming you to our eight-acre site in Lancashire.
