Britannia AuctionsBusiness asset auctions in London
Our London work follows the industrial ring around the capital. Food producers and printers in Park Royal, recycling yards off the A13 at Dagenham, vehicle workshops on Purley Way and warehousing up the Lea Valley at Enfield all reach the point of closing or moving. A unit that must be handed back on a fixed date, with narrow streets and Low Emission Zone rules, needs a plan that works backwards from the collection window.
Sales run as online timed auctions at your premises, or we clear the unit and sell from our own. Croydon, Romford, Watford and Slough are within reach of a viewing day, and bidding is open UK wide. Single high value items can go by private treaty.
Industrial London is in the outer boroughs. Park Royal, between the A40 and the North Circular, is the largest industrial area in the capital and holds food producers, printers, vehicle workshops and distribution units. Brimsdown in Enfield has warehousing and heavier industry along the Lea Valley. Dagenham Dock and Barking, off the A13, hold vehicle plants, recycling firms and logistics yards. Purley Way in Croydon is the main industrial strip in the south. Hayes, Wembley, Charlton and Erith have further estates.
The M25 circles the city and connects to the M1, M4, M11, M20, A1(M) and M40. The A406 North Circular and the A13, A40 and A2 carry traffic in from the ring. Rail freight terminals at Willesden and Barking handle container traffic. Ports at Tilbury and London Gateway are close to the east. Large vehicles must plan around the Low Emission Zone and the Direct Vision Standard rules.

Guides and questions
- Preparing machinery and equipment for sale
What to do before viewing day. Keep the machines that can be run safely available to demonstrate, isolate the rest, clean but do not repaint, find the tooling and manuals, and sort out access for removal.
- How used machinery is valued
Buyers pay for what a machine will do for them, less what it costs to get it out and running. This guide explains how make, hours, tooling, demand and removal cost feed a guide price, and why that price is not book value.
- How much does it cost to sell at auction?
- How do I know whether something is worth selling?
- What reporting does the office holder receive?
- How long does a vehicle sale take?
