Background
Dorset-based company D.O.E Precision has been a well-established business since 2007. Company Directors Chris and Lisa Doe have both owned and developed this reputable company since its conception but felt the need for a change of direction since the pandemic hit in 2020. Specialising in Precision Ground components the company had fully stocked machine shop with both CNC and Conventional machine tools.
The Brief
Once the decision had been made to close the business New England was contacted by D.O.E to explore the available options for disposing of their asset. The objective was to realise the best value for the assets whilst also clearing site so it can be handed back to the landlord cleared and safe.
Sales Method
Having visited site and discussed the available options with D.O.E. an outright purchase solution quickly became apparent as the best route forward. New England would purchase all of the assets onsite, sell them by online auction and guarantee a site clearance date. This solution saw New England taking full responsibility for the preparation of the assets, removal of the assets and totally clearing the site of any unsaleable items.
Results
New England sold all the used machinery and equipment listed on their online auction platform, handled all inquiries, managed the buyers collections and cleared the site of unsaleable items and rubbish. DOE was so pleased with the service that they now want to help the New England team by recommending them to other companies that may have similar decisions to make.
New England specialises in site clearances, it offers the client an easy and hassle-free solution to the disposal of surplus assets. In this instance, the outright purchase and online auction method was the best sales strategy for DOE. By project managing the whole process, it takes the stress away from the client and the team can hand back a cleared site.
Lisa “ I contacted New England as they are a well-recognised company within the asset disposal industry. We were familiar with their auctions and marketing and after meeting the team we knew they were the right fit for us. If I had to sum up New England in one sentence it would be
Professional, Kind, Sincere, Trustworthy, and understanding. The team suggested that a sale from the site was the best way forward as we still had orders to go out and a need to use the machines. We had a fair and trustworthy valuation and were offered an agreed price that we felt comfortable with. We have been familiar with New England as they have been going for so long, they are a reputable company that we knew we could trust. They delivered above and beyond and took away all the hassle, they even sorted out all the rubbish and swept the floors. They literally dealt with the whole process. If you want a company that is personable and trustworthy then please call the New England team. They come highly recommended by us and we would not hesitate to use their services again.”
