The Steffes Advantage in Construction Auctions

One of the most valuable aspects of selling through a Steffes Construction Auction is reach. Our auctions are not limited to a single location or region. We host multi-location, multi-state events that attract buyers from across the U.S., Canada, and beyond along with giving our customers the option to have a stand-alone auction as well. This format is a game-changer. For contractors, it means increased options, exposure, more competition, and higher returns. For buyers, it means access to a broader variety of inventory of quality equipment across North America. Additionally, our Steffes Group Online Auction Platform is optimized for convenience and transparency. Buyers can participate from anywhere, and sellers can rest assured their equipment is showcased with professional photos, detailed specs, and full auction support. In industries where time is money, this seamless process allows both buyers and sellers to stay focused on their projects while we take care of the heavy lifting.

Servicing Oil & Gas, Trucking, and Construction Across the U.S. and Canada

From the oilfields of Alberta to the pipeline corridors of Texas and North Dakota, the oil and gas sector relies on heavy-duty equipment that can handle tough jobs and tougher conditions. The same goes for long-haul trucking fleets and large-scale construction operations across North America. At Steffes, we serve all of these sectors with dedicated auction support tailored to their needs along with a unique understanding of the industry which means we know what is what when it comes to specialized equipment. Whether it's a pipeline contractor offloading surplus rigs, a trucking firm refreshing its fleet, or a construction company looking to liquidate before winter, our team understands how to position, market, and sell equipment to the right audience. No matter the item, our goal is the same: maximize exposure, attract serious buyers, and deliver top dollar for every piece.
