Business asset auctions in Warrington
We run auctions and private treaty sales for businesses in Warrington, Cheshire, and the towns around it including Widnes, Runcorn, St Helens, Wigan, Northwich, Leigh, Altrincham, Knutsford. Sales are catalogued and held on your premises, or we collect the assets and sell them from our own premises when that suits better. Bidding is online and open to trade buyers across the UK.
Warrington sits at the crossing of the M6 and M62 and much of its economy is built on that position. Large distribution warehouses fill Omega on the west side of the town and the estates around Gemini and Winwick Quay to the north. Birchwood Park has offices and workshops for nuclear and energy engineering firms. Chemical manufacturing continues at Bank Quay, and there are engineering, fabrication and vehicle repair businesses on Woolston Grange, Appleton Thorn and the older estates near the Ship Canal.
The M62 has junctions 8 to 11 within the borough. The M6 is reached at junctions 20 and 21, and the M56 at junctions 9 and 10 to the south. Warrington Bank Quay station is on the West Coast Main Line, and Warrington Central is on the line between Liverpool and Manchester. Most sites can take an articulated lorry without difficulty.

Guides and questions
- Preparing machinery and equipment for sale
What to do in the days before viewing so machines fetch what they should. Isolate and make safe, clean but do not repaint, find the tooling and manuals, sort out access, and avoid the mistakes that cost sellers money.
- 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.
- What if my business has items on finance?
- What is a fixture and why does it matter?
- Do you need the machine's paperwork?
- How is the sale price agreed?
