NCM Auctions appointed to sell the entire contents of a Global Cereal Manufacturing Factory

3 min read

NCM Auctions has been appointed by MPB Structures to dispose of assets and clear a former cereal manufacturing factory before demolition and redevelopment.

The four-month project will see NCM clear the site of all surplus assets and equipment including the decommissioning and removal of the cereal processing and manufacturing plant, bagging and packaging lines along with the contents of workshops, offices, canteens and all building fixtures and fittings.

The site was handed over to NCM Auctions last week to start the process of valuing and cataloguing assets. Given the scale of the project, NCM envisages there will be private treaty sales for some of the more specialist equipment along with three online auctions.

PRE-REGISTER HERE

Despite the scale and tight timescales of the project, founder and CEO of NCM Auctions, Emma McSkelly explains, it’s the type of project where NCM thrive…

“We’re thrilled to be working with the team at MPB Structures, helping realise their vision for the future redevelopment of the factory site. While also ensuring we return the maximum value we can for the surplus assets that remain. On top of this, we will be ensuring our collections procedures and all our specialist teams working on-site remain COVID-safe.”

What business assets can NCM Auctions sell? There is literally a buyer demographic for every type of business asset so we never rule anything out before having a chat. Some common businesses, organisations and industry sectors we work with include construction, colleges, councils, factories, airports, hotels, stadiums, catering contractors, restaurants, hire companies, finance and insolvency, theme parks and leisure venues…but we are always happy to speak to any new business to discuss your needs.

Why sell with NCM Auctions rather than doing it myself? We run online auctions every day, we have access to hundreds of thousands of motivated buyers and we are specialists at auction marketing to drive buyers to our online auctions. We also have a nationwide team of operators to fully manage the valuation, lotting, bidding and collection process for you.

However, we’ve generated larger sums at large factory sites with vast amounts of plant, machinery and fleet vehicles with some of our auction hammer totals exceeding £500,000.

The simple formula for how Facility, Asset and Finance Teams can negate clearance and waste costs

News

The simple formula for how Facility, Asset and Finance Teams can negate clearance and waste costs

3 min read

Don’t pay to have your site cleared, let us negate clearance costs and generate unbudgeted income from your assets and equipment by selling them via online auction.

Our company exists due to our owner one day hearing of an organisation that had been given a waste clearance bill of over £30,000 to clear their buildings and storage facilities; however the buildings were full of used but sellable assets and equipment. She managed to sell thousands of these assets via online auction and generated over £50,000 for that business in cash flow. Quite the swing from the original waste clearance bill.

The CSR impact was also huge. Several tonnes of waste diverted from landfill, substantial income generated for use in the local community, and local SME’s and charitable organisations benefitting from purchasing excellent quality used equipment and assets at a huge discount, right on their doorstep.

8 years later NCM Auctions is still going strong. We speak to many new customers every week who are usually amazed that they’ve never considered using commercial auctions (or even heard of them) to sell their used assets and equipment before. Even more so when you think the use of online auctions such as eBay is so common in every household.

We’ve saved multiple companies a small fortune in clearance costs in the last few weeks alone, all whilst generating them substantial cash flow in addition to the cost saving. A couple of examples of recent projects include selling high end designer vintage furniture from a luxury London hotel and selling the contents of an engineering department for a large college.

You can check out these news stories here – Luxury Hotel and College

We have managed hundreds of commercial equipment and asset clearance projects for:

  • Factories and Offices
  • Manufacturing plants
  • Colleges, schools and universities
  • Restaurants
  • Hotels
  • Councils and the public sector
  • Stadiums and iconic venues
  • Company relocations, mergers and site closures
  • Entire site clearance or department clearance
  • Many more!

 

Top selling used equipment and assets include:

  • Kitchen and restaurant equipment
  • Vehicles, plant and machinery
  • Engineering and woodwork machinery
  • Hotel furniture, fixtures and fittings
  • Playgrounds and rides
  • Exhibition and pop-up stands
  • Gym equipment
  • Office furniture and ancillaries
  • Many more!

 

We’re ready to help you:

  • Maximise the financial return for your assets
  • Sell your assets on tight timelines
  • Clear entire departments, warehouses or buildings quickly
  • Free up storage space whilst generating unbudgeted income
  • Manage the entire process for you

NCM appointed to sell Engineering Department equipment for Solihull College and University Centre

NCM Auctions are the experts when it comes to selling assets and equipment for colleges, schools and universities – being the number 1 reverse supply chain partner for the education sector. This engineering department online auction will include top grade equipment such as lathes, milling machines, bench grinders, surface grinders and pillar drills.

Why have over 120 colleges, universities and schools chosen to sell their equipment with us?

Every college, school and university has surplus assets, be it from a merger, refurbishment, department closure, curriculum change or a build-up in storage over the years. For over 8 years we have been helping colleges and universities clear valuable space, hit their sustainability objectives and most importantly – generate unbudgeted revenue, quickly.

We want to talk with all colleges and universities to see how we can benefit your organisation, just like we have for all our long term education partners. Previous NCM Auctions clients include Richmond-upon-Thames College, Salford City College, Canterbury College and York St. John University.

We have generated over £1,600,000 in cash flow for our education partners through the liquidation of surplus and redundant assets and equipment, and we can provide multiple references from education partners to confirm that we deliver on our promises. We work on projects with a wide range of size and values; whether it’s a few high value redundant assets from a department, an entire building or large-scale multi-site clearance. The usual range of income generated for education partners is £25,000 to £150,000.

Popular departments and assets sold by our education partners include engineering, commercial catering, motor vehicles, woodwork, construction, gym & fitness, welding, broadcast & media and technical equipment but we will always want to discuss all your assets when we chat.

We don’t cost you anything, we clear space, help the community & environment and we generate thousands of pounds in revenue for the education partners we work with.

WANT TO SELL YOUR EDUCATION ASSETS WITH NCM AUCTIONS? CALL US NOW ON 01302 898 260

FAQs

Can NCM Auctions sell any kind of education equipment? Yes, but we work with our education clients to maximise revenue returns by focusing on ‘hero’ lots that will achieve highest value, and then by creating collective lots for smaller items to achieve the best buying uptake.

What education equipment can NCM help my business sell? Everything from entire departments to high value one off items. The most popular items tend to include engineering, catering, automotive, construction and technical equipment but all education assets sell well. We can even generate income from your furniture, fixtures and fittings when a building is being refurbed or demolished.

Can I speak with NCM Auctions before my department or building needs clearing? Absolutely! We always want to speak to education organisations about their assets, whether it’s for a current requirement or for future projects. The longer we have to plan your auction, the greater our targeted marketing and buyer sourcing plan is, which means higher revenue returns for you.

Do NCM Auctions just sell college and education assets? No, the good news is we work with all kinds of businesses to sell their assets. From small scale projects to full site clearance requirements. We’ve worked with hundreds of clients including catering businesses, councils, colleges and schools, airports, marine companies, insolvency firms, stadiums, gyms and many more!

Cash Flow in Your Business Attic?

3 min read

When you have value in assets you own at home but no longer need, you probably stick them on eBay. Better to have cash in the bank than an unwanted games console, old TV or unused car. So how come this same thought process doesn’t happen when you’re at work? Surplus business equipment, both new or used, holds value that can quickly be converted into vital cash flow.

There will never be a better time for most businesses to have a thorough review of equipment and assets. Every business tends to have plenty of equipment in storage, but with so many businesses quieter at the moment it’s a good time to review the state and requirement of your equipment that’s normally in daily operation.

Common feedback we get from businesses we speak to for the first time is that they’ve never even thought about using online auctions to sell their surplus equipment and assets, that quickly changes following a short NCM Auctions presentation. The process is so easy.

  1. We get to know you and your business
  2. Your surplus equipment and assets are valued, you set the reserves
  3. We catalogue your lots and upload them onto our online auction portal
  4. The online auction goes live and we manage the marketing to attract thousands of buyers
  5. We fully manage the collection process once assets are sold
  6. We collect funds from the buyers, you invoice us and then we pay you

You can view this onboarding process in greater detail by clicking here.

NCM Auctions have worked with companies of all shapes and sizes. We’ve sold plant and machinery on behalf of DHL, catering and events equipment for Compass Group and have sold entire building contents for Barnet & Southgate College.

FAQs

What business assets can NCM Auctions sell? There is literally a buyer demographic for every type of business asset so we never rule anything out before having a chat. Some common businesses, organisations and industry sectors we work with include construction, colleges, councils, factories, airports, hotels, stadiums, catering contractors, restaurants, hire companies, finance and insolvency, theme parks and leisure venues…but we are always happy to speak to any new business to discuss your needs.

Why sell with NCM Auctions rather than doing it myself? We run online auctions every day, we have access to hundreds of thousands of motivated buyers and we are specialists at auction marketing to drive buyers to our auctions. We also have a nationwide team of operators to fully manage the valuation, lotting, bidding and collection process for you.

What sort of revenue is generated from your auctions? This all depends on how much you have to sell and the value of equipment, but to give an indication, for exclusive client auctions we typically achieve between £20,000 and £100,000 in total, although we’ve had larger sums generated than this at big site clearances with large amounts of plant, machinery and fleet vehicles.

Does running an auction with NCM Auctions cost me anything? No! We don’t sell you anything, we sell things for you! We cover the upfront costs so no money ever leaves your business. When we sign terms with you at the start of the process we agree a percentage of the total hammer value that we’ll retain for our efforts once the auction is complete, so it’s nice and transparent.

NCM Auctions has been appointed to sell the contents of Leeds East Airport via online auction.

Following successful discussions with our client, NCM Auctions were able to display the know-how required to maximise the revenue return of surplus airport assets on the desired client schedule, with work to be completed within 3 weeks. The auction starts on the 2nd November and will last for 14 days, featuring circa 30 lots, with collections taking place mid-November.

NCM Auctions are specialists at large-scale site clearance projects, removing the hassle and maximising the return of any saleable assets that would otherwise achieve low financial returns due to a lack of access to relevant buyers. We can work to tight timescales or with long lead ups for your building clearance requirements. You can take a more ethical and sustainable approach to site clearance projects whilst generating unbudgeted income and reducing clearance costs by speaking to our specialist team to sell your equipment.

More information can be found by visiting our Site Disposal Services Page, and our friendly team are always on hand to offer quick and helpful advice about how we fully manage your site clearance requirements.

FAQs

Can NCM Auctions sell any kind of Airport equipment? Yes, but we work with our clients to maximise revenue returns by focusing on ‘hero’ lots that will achieve highest value, and then by creating collective lots for smaller items to achieve the best buying uptake.

What Airport equipment can NCM help my business sell? Everything from your plant and machinery to scanning machines and furniture, we will even sell building assets such as doors, lights and flooring. The most popular items tend to include kitchen equipment, lounge furniture, scanners and X-ray machines, reception desk contents and furniture, fixtures and fittings.

Can I speak with NCM Auctions before my building needs clearing? Absolutely! We always want to speak to businesses about their assets, whether it’s for a current requirement or for future projects. The longer we have to plan your auction, the greater our targeted marketing and buyer sourcing plan is, which means higher revenue returns for you.

Do NCM Auctions just sell Airport assets? No, the good news is we work with all kinds of businesses to sell their assets. From small scale projects to full site clearance requirements. We’ve worked with hundreds of clients including catering businesses, councils, colleges and schools, airports, marine companies, insolvency firms, stadiums, gyms and many more!
