Sell surplus machinery and production equipment

A line changes, a contract ends, or a process is brought in-house, and a capable machine stops earning. It keeps its footprint, its maintenance obligation and its insurance value while producing nothing.

Machinery is also the category where a rushed sale costs the most. Sold against a lease expiry or a site handback it fetches a fraction of what the same machine makes with a few weeks of exposure and its paperwork in order.

Why LotLoop, for this specifically

Buyers who will inspect properly

Inspection requests are part of the process rather than an awkward favour. A buyer who has seen a machine run pays more and withdraws less often.

Tooling and controls are part of the listing

Listings carry the tooling package, control generation and what transfers with it — which is where much of the value sits and where vague listings lose money.

Rigging and access stated up front

Weight, access and power are in the listing, so a buyer prices transport before they enquire rather than renegotiating after.

Business buyers only

No consumer traffic, and no explaining three-phase supply to somebody who was never going to buy.

0% commission, permanently

You receive the full amount you list or agree.

How it works

Submissions are private. A person reviews every listing before it publishes — nothing goes live automatically. Your business is checked against its Companies House record, and the result is shown on the listing so buyers know who they are dealing with.

Buyers 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.
