Business asset auctions in Telford

A large machine shop with many machines and tools

Telford was laid out for factories, and factory equipment is the bulk of the work. Automotive component makers and plastics moulders on Hortonwood and Halesfield sell injection moulding machines, presses, granulators and tool room equipment when a contract moves. Food processors sell production lines and cold rooms. The trade units at Tweedale add vehicle workshops and stock. Whether the sale runs at the premises depends on the plant, the unit and the timetable. A viewing day comes before the online auction closes, and a collection window after. Otherwise we collect and sell from our own premises. Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, Bridgnorth and Stafford are close by, and bidding is open UK wide. Single high value machines can be sold by private treaty.

Telford was planned as an industrial town and has more factory space than most places of its size. Automotive component makers, plastics moulders, food processors and general engineering firms occupy the three main estates. Hortonwood is in the north of the town, Stafford Park is next to the A464 close to junction 4 of the M54, and Halesfield is to the south near Madeley. Each estate is divided into numbered phases with units from small workshops to large factories. Tweedale and Heath Hill hold smaller trade and repair businesses.

The M54 runs along the south side of Telford and joins the M6 near Wolverhampton. The A5 continues west to Shrewsbury and the A442 links the estates from north to south. Telford Central station is on the line between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton. Roads on the estates were laid out for lorries, though yard space, door sizes and floor levels still differ from unit to unit.
