Unlike many auctions, the Boels story is not about closure but about strategy. Boels Rental, one of Europe’s largest equipment rental companies, has worked with Troostwijk Auctions for over a decade to keep its fleet young and efficient.
“Because we only rent out young machines, we regularly sell used tools and equipment to refresh our assortment,” says Bart van Son, Head of Trade at Boels. “Through Troostwijk, we give our machines a second life.”
Thousands of lots are sold each year, ranging from aerial platforms and earthmoving machines to drills, saws, and compressors. Troostwijk handles photography, descriptions, marketing, and invoicing, making the process seamless. “Instead of sending thousands of invoices, we only send one per auction to Troostwijk. They take care of the rest,” Van Son explains.
Buyers benefit too. John van Helvert, a regular customer, values the reliability. “It is completely different from buying on Marktplaats. With Troostwijk, I know the equipment is high quality, and everything runs smoothly.”
For Boels, auctions are a way to balance efficiency with sustainability. For Troostwijk Auctions, it is proof that auctions are not only about bankruptcy, but also about smart asset management and renewal.
