Sell on LotLoop
Sell used commercial catering equipment
Kitchens get refitted, menus change and sites close, and stainless steel outlives the business that bought it. A coherent kitchen sold as a lot is worth considerably more than the same equipment sold piecemeal to whoever turns up first.
What it costs
Sellers pay 0% commission, permanently. Not an introductory rate — you receive the full amount you list or agree. The LotLoop commission sits on the buyer’s side and is added to the buyer’s price, never deducted from yours. There is no listing fee for ordinary selling.
That covers ordinary selling. LotLoop Liquidation — the membership for insolvency practitioners listing assets from formal appointments — is a separate paid product with its own verification. See liquidation listings if that is what you are doing.
What makes yours worth more
The same equipment fetches very different money depending on how much the buyer has to guess. These are the things that move the price:
- Service history, and the descaling record on anything with a boiler
- Gas safety records, where you hold them
- Door seals, hinges and interior condition — cheap to judge, telling to a buyer
- Power supply and phase, stated plainly
- Whether the kitchen can be bought as a complete lot
For actual numbers rather than factors, we publish sourced UK asking-price ranges with a named source against every figure: used combi oven and used commercial refrigeration. Free, and no sign-up.
What we need from you
- A list of what is going, with makes and models where visible
- Photographs of the equipment in situ
- Gas and electrical supply details
- The date the premises must be clear
That is the whole ask. LotLoop can do the cataloguing, write the listing copy and prepare the photographs; you review and submit from your own account. Nothing is published that you have not read.
How the sale works
Submissions are private. A person at LotLoop reviews every listing before it is published — nothing goes live automatically. Your business is checked against its Companies House record, and that result is shown on the listing so buyers are not guessing who they are dealing with.
Buyers can purchase at a fixed price, make an offer or request an inspection. The buyer pays on the platform, and LotLoop holds your transfer until collection or delivery has been verified, then releases it. It is not escrow and we do not call it that: it is a transfer that waits until the equipment has moved.
LotLoop is business-to-business. Buyers are businesses, not consumers, which is why a tested, maintained item is not competing on price against an untested one.
