Britannia AuctionsWho disconnects the machines?
You do, through a competent person. Every lot is isolated from power, air and coolant before collection, and electrical and gas disconnection is done by qualified people. Buyers arrange and pay for removal, and they do not disconnect services themselves. Do it before the collection window opens so nothing is held up on the day.
