WCA Auctions

WCA Live Auctions Bring Real People Together in a Real Marketplace. Our live auctions offer an ideal environment for buyers and sellers to come together. Buyers have access to a wide array of heavy equipment, trucks, trailers, and other equipment assets. Sellers have access to a large, well-qualified audience. They reach buyers attending the auction, but also offsite buyers via the online auction. WCA provides an efficient way to bring buyers and sellers together. We arrange the introduction, get the conversation started, and ideally help close deals in which all parties leave feeling satisfied.

Our Live Auctions Are Well-Oiled Machines. We have been in this business for over 3 decades. We know what works and what doesn't. From the moment you enter the auction yard, you see our experience in action. The auction yard is organized so you can preview equipment easily. Auction catalogs list all equipment to be sold so you can see the order in which items be sold and plan accordingly. Once the auction begins, the process is engaging and efficient. All our auctioneers are WCA professionals; they run items through the auction queue quickly but efficiently. If you need help bidding on an item or have an equipment question, WCA staff is right there to help. Once an item is purchased, checkout is a breeze. No long lines, no endless paperwork. Again, WCA staff is there to help. All in all, WCA auctions run like clockwork.

WCA Auctions Are Truly Worldwide Auctions. While our live auctions are held in Perris, California, all WCA auctions are truly worldwide events. We bring buyers and sellers together from all over the globe. If you are selling equipment at a WCA auction, you may have buyers from many western states on location. But there will also be potential buyers from Australia, South America, or the Middle East, for example, and they will be bidding on items via our real-time online auction. And these buyers bid exactly like live buyers do. If you are buying equipment at a WCA auction, you will see heavy construction equipment from all over the United States available for sale. Items that may be scarce in your state may be more easily accessible in another part of the country. WCA auctions bring real people and real equipment together in one marketplace.

Live or Online: It's Your Choice. We want to make sure anyone interested in our equipment auctions is able to bid. That's why we offer our unique real-time online auction in addition to our traditional live onsite auction. Our live auctions are exciting, engaging events - and if you have the opportunity to attend one in person, it is absolutely worth the experience. But if you can't make it to a live auction, you can always "attend" an auction directly from your computer -- in real time. So if you are looking for a Caterpillar backhoe but you are on location at a worksite in Texas, you can still check out the WCA auction inventory in California. Then, you can bid on the equipment in real-time, just like you were at the auction. And if you end up placing the winning bid, WCA staff can help you get your equipment shipped directly to your location.

We Are There to Answer Your Questions. All WCA auctions are fully staffed by WCA professionals. Have a question about a piece of equipment; want to know about previous auction results? Look for a WCA equipment specialist in a red WCA shirt. Want to speak with someone on the executive team? Look for our senior team members in a white WCA shirt. Our WCA team is onsite at all times, walking the grounds to answer any questions you may have. Additionally, helpful WCA staff mans the auction office/trailer where all paperwork and other support services are completed. Look for the red or white shirts -- then ask away.

All the Support You Need is Right There Too. The live auction is all about buying and selling equipment, and it's an exciting event. But, there are many other things to take care of on auction day as well. That's why all support services (such as equipment transportation, financing, DMV paperwork and processing, and more) are provided right on site. Professional WCA staff members are there to help ensure everything is taken care of -- before you leave our yard.

The Next WCA Auction Is Just Right Around the Corner. We hold live auctions approximately every 8 weeks. This means there is always another auction coming down the road. Our auctions are always held on Fridays so we ensure most people can attend. We also open our auction yard in the days prior to an upcoming auction so you can preview equipment in advance. And we publish our auction inventory on our website as soon as inventory arrives. If you are selling equipment at auction, we encourage you to get it to us as quickly as possible - so we maximize its exposure before the auction date. If you are buying equipment and can identify the equipment you are looking for, you can even let us know in advance - and we will be sure to notify you when an item that matches your needs comes in.
