"Industrial Recovery Services did a great job selling our surplus machinery. Larry spent   about two days writing specifications and taking pictures. 95% of all the machines were sold in a couple of weeks on-line with very few problems. All of the equipment was removed in several weeks and the plant was converted into a distribution center. Great job IRS!'

“I had no idea that the process of auctioning our woodworking equipment assets would be so easy and yield results exceeding our expectations.

Your services provided capital for new equipment purchases and saved us valuable time that we needed to prepare for our new facility.

During the sale you brought us a global buyer base which attributed to the sale’s success.  It would have been cost prohibitive and impractical for the overseas buyers to attend our auction in person.

Your virtual auction environment not only helped us sell our plant assets, but provided equipment and created new opportunities for others in the woodworking industry. 

The way your system generates automatic communication works flawlessly!  The notifications we received couldn’t have been quicker.  We were kept informed every step of the way and it was much appreciated!

In conclusion, your services yielded us a 62% increase over our anticipated return.  This capital was reinvested into modern manufacturing techniques, thus increasing our productivity.”
 

"I called IRS auctions and was referred to Camil Poirier. After speaking with him I took photos of our equipment, wrote a brief description and emailed the photos and descriptions to him. He had the auction site published on the web within 24 hours and ten days later we received nearly twice the amount he estimated. We were delighted with the final tally. All of our equipment was picked up by the buyers within two weeks. We even made a few business contacts from the buyers that visited us. Some were local and some came as far away as Canada."

"IRS Auctions is a great way for any woodworking business to liquidate assets quickly, get a fair price, and move them off the property expeditiously. The time invested on our side was minimal compared to the outcome. Trying to place ads in the trades would have taken months; selling at auction is the way to go for anyone wanting a quick turnaround. The best part is the entire auction was done online without having to hold the auction at our location on our time. And it was a lot of fun watching the bids escalate, especially the last few hours!"

"I would use IRS Auctions again and again. Many thanks to Camil Poirier for helping make our first auction a huge success! Our management had a big smile at the end of the day and we have IRS Auctions to thank for that!”

“Your new Web auctions are a great help to the woodworking industry.
 
We had a large building packed full of idle machinery. With your services, we were able to quickly sell all the equipment in  
about eight days.
 
The large building that once housed all this equipment was then turned into a manufacturing facility. Proceeds from the auction 
were reinvested in the new equipment needed for this project.
 
We thought about having an auction on the premises, but the equipment was packed tight against each other, we did not have 
the time and the expenses would have been cost prohibitive. IRS's auction services enabled us to reach buyers that would not
have attended an auction at our plant.
 
It certainly is fascinating! Through your unique service, we were able to use the sale of our older equipment to increase our
productivity.  The buyers were able to purchase used equipment at realistic market prices and will use the machinery to
increase their own productivity.
 
A positive experience for everyone.”

What Are Buyers Saying?

“Great job IRS!”

 “Why didn’t somebody come up with your web auction concept years ago?  I am an    avid auction buyer who always spends time attending “on location” auctions.  Since    your web auctions have come out, I haven’t had the need to travel to an “on location    auction for the last two years.  What a timesaver!”

 “Our plant processes 26 million board foot of lumber a year.  I’m a busy guy and I    don’t have extra time to travel to auctions.  Your service allows me to attend    woodworking auctions without leaving the plant.”
 

"This is to let you know that our company is very happy with the service rendered by I.R.S. Auctions.

"It has been of great help to us to be able to purchase machinery on the net with such a great system that gives every body such a transparency on prices and the opportunity to bid from overseas and many different places at the same time."

"Again it is a great system. Keep up the good work and service you have delivered so far."

“Your website is saving my company a ton of money!” 

“I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your IRS Auctions.com website.  To    be able to look at used equipment online saves me valuable time and money.” 

“I appreciate not having to drive or fly to auctions anymore.  I get a better view from    pictures than sometimes can be had in poorly lit factories.  Also, the descriptions    and specifications are very important and the complete listings you provide are very    well done.” 

“Today, I was not a successful bidder, but I have been in the past, and expect to be in  the future.  Your staff has been excellent in follow-up info, (i.e. names of riggers and    equipment handlers that specialize in careful transport of machinery).” 

“Keep up the good work and thanks for helping me be more efficient by saving my   time  and saving my company travel expenses.”
 

“For me, it’s been awesome!”

 “It’s saved me money in that I used to travel all over the country many times a year to try to buy at live auctions.  This past year I haven’t gone to one.  I have an 80,000 square foot plant with over 160 employees to keep running.  I need to be here.  It’s a lot easier participating in your web auctions than traveling to one.”

 “I like your website the best.  I can see what’s going on, I know when the auctions end and it feels like I’m at an auction even though I’m comfortably sitting in my office.  I have no suggestions for improvement.”

 “The money that I save on your website allows me to practice “Lean” manufacturing techniques, which focus on “right sized" equipment placed throughout the production line to facilitate "flow".  With your website, I can afford to place multiple pieces of the same equipment in various lines eliminating "bottle neck central processes", much improving the flow of work.  In this way, your services have helped to improve our productivity.”
