Mackay Haulage to go to auction
A 44-year-old haulage company is closing its doors and all of its assets including trucks, trailers, cranes and more are going under the hammerAfter more than forty years in the business, the directors of Mackay Haulage, Angelo and Sam Sorbello, are retiring. As a result, their entire inventory of haulage equipment is to be auctioned by GraysOnline.
The digital auction platform is hosting an unreserved auction from April 23, including a wide range of premium haulage equipment.
Chris Corbin, CEO of GraysOnline said: "GraysOnline, have developed a strong relationship with Mackay Haulage Co. over many years. Forty four years in the industry is the end of an era and I am honoured they have chosen our e-commerce marketplace to sell their stock."
The entire Mackay Haulage fleet is up for auction and this consists of a wide selection of assets, including 35 vehicles (prime movers, body trucks and light vehicles), 35 trailers including low loaders and specialist steerable extending trailers, curtain-sided trailers, flat top trailers, dollies and extending trailers, 17 different pieces of specialist equipment including two cranes, 13 forklifts and a portable building and a container.
Each piece of equipment or machinery is described on the GraysOnline site, under the heading "MHC". Videos and plenty of close-up, detailed pictures, along with a comprehensive description, showcase each lot on offer.
Over the years, the Mackay Haulage company has been meticulous in servicing and caring for the vehicles. A complete service and maintenance history is displayed for each vehicle.
We’re told that the vehicles have all been working until fairly recently, so are "good to go" once purchase is complete.
The auction will be held digitally, ensuring bidders and the GraysOnline team comply fully with social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The GraysOnline team can be contacted online for advice, support or further information about the auction.
Mackay Haulage was a prestigious haulage company that handled large quantities of freight over the years, including exceptionally long and/or heavy loads.
