The auction is live with bidding starting at 9 a.m. Saturday, July 13, and buyers do not have to be present to participate. Bidders can inspect auction equipment on Friday July 12, 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. and also at 7a.m. on auction day, July 13. The auction is live, on-site in Charlotte, MI (Lansing area) and items are added to the auction daily. Companies looking for used bucket trucks for sale are encouraged to sign up for the priority email updates to stay informed of newly added vehicles.
J.J. Kane is well-known for used bucket truck and utility equipment auctions. However, their auctions also feature many used light-duty trucks, cars, SUV's and more. One of the benefits of this auction is that you do not have to be present to participate. Bidding can be done online, saving the cost of travel, and the company will help bidders and sellers through every step of the process.
J.J. Kane auctions are absolute, meaning that everything sells to the highest bidder, regardless of price. There are no minimums or reserves at an absolute auction and owners are not allowed to bid on equipment they have consigned to the auction. Selling price is determined by the bidders participating in the auction and no one else. The auction offers direct access to the equipment contractors need and differs from other auctions in that you don’t have to be a dealer to buy. Anyone can register and connect directly with buyers and sellers through this auction company, helping both parties to exchange equipment at a fair price.
"At J.J. Kane, we care about our buyers and sellers as we provide the services that are important to both in a way that is most convenient for them. Sellers benefit from a convenient and cost-effective way to sell equipment for competitive market value. Buyers can kick the tires and inspect items personally, or if they prefer, they can make purchases online without the time and expense incurred with travelling to an auction,” says Joe Kane, founder of J.J. Kane Auctioneers.
