Ritchie Bros. is putting more than 1,100 construction equipment, lifting machines, trucks, trailers and other assets up for auction in the UAE on September 23 and 24, as part of its wider Super September sales programme across EMEA and APAC.
The unreserved auction is expected to include a broad mix of equipment by type, brand and model, giving contractors, fleet operators and other buyers an opportunity to source machinery through a single sale. Among the equipment categories represented are 72 excavators, 54 cranes and crane attachments, 54 wheel loaders and 17 dozers.
Notable lots include an unused 2025 Zoomlion ZCC1500V-1 150-tonne lattice-boom crawler crane, a 2020 XCMG XCT80 80-tonne 8x4x4 hydraulic truck crane and a 2024 SEM 832F crawler dozer.
The auction comes as equipment owners and operators enter the final months of the year, a period when fleets are often reviewed against project requirements and upcoming capital expenditure plans. The sale provides sellers with access to buyers beyond the UAE, while buyers can bid on equipment sourced from different applications and fleet profiles.
As an unreserved auction, the lots will be sold to the highest bidder without minimum bids or reserve prices. Ritchie Bros. said its online catalogue is being updated daily and provides equipment descriptions, photographs and videos to allow prospective buyers to assess individual lots before bidding.
Bidding for the UAE sale opens on 17 September, ahead of the auction dates on 23 and 24 September. Equipment can be inspected between 18 and 23 September from 8am to 5pm at Ritchie Bros.’ facility in Jebel Ali Free Zone.
Global auctions comprise Super September campaign
The UAE sale forms part of Ritchie Bros.’ Super September campaign, which brings together 11 auctions across 10 countries in the EMEA and APAC regions during September. The campaign is designed to consolidate equipment buying and selling activity across multiple markets during the month.
For sellers, the auction provides access to Ritchie Bros.’ international buyer network, while buyers can view equipment offered across the company’s September sales programme. The company has operated in the UAE for 29 years and has more than 65 years of experience in equipment auctions globally.
The full UAE auction catalogue is available online, with lot information and inspection material being added ahead of the sale.
