"Over the last couple of years we've frequently sold equipment at Ritchie Bros. auctions," said Yves Aertssen, Manager at Aertssen. "For the November auction in Moerdijk, we've supplied a number of well-maintained excavators, crawler tractors and trucks. When we're selling surplus items and trucks to turn them into cash, we'd like bidders from all over the world to come and join the auction. A Ritchie Bros. auction provides us this opportunity, while we can stay focused on our own core business. With the auction proceeds we'll soon finance other equipment purchases."
