About Purple Wave Auction
Purple Wave Auction runs online, no-reserve equipment auctions for the agriculture, construction, government and fleet industries. Buyers bid online, and sellers reach a nationwide audience while keeping a local touch for each asset. The company has 25 years of auction experience and a team of specialists behind each sale.
For public agencies, schools and universities, Purple Wave turns surplus vehicles, heavy equipment and other assets into revenue without staging a live auction. No-reserve sales mean items sell, which clears yards and lots. Agencies can use the service to dispose of property quickly while keeping a clear record of each sale.
