Details

Our buying team received a lead for a couple of machines that were sitting unused at UK springs manufacturer Clifford Springs

Due to expanding their production, this Midlands based manufacturer sought to free up space within their premises as the machines were no longer required.

Our team quickly responded to their enquiry, reviewing their machinery from the supplied data and photos. Our experienced buyers assessed the machinery and established Rileys could find a home for them with another company, avoiding sending them to waste and reusing them instead. This also meant we could make a financial offer and turn surplus machinery to cash.

Once an offer was agreed, our logistics team collaborated with our contact to plan the collection of the goods.  Often manufacturers selling machinery can load goods to Riley’s transport but in this case Clifford Springs didn’t have equipment on site. Our hugely experienced Logistics co-ordinator assessed the needs and set up a plan.

A specialised transport partner with a HIAB loader crane arrived on site, reverse into a cleared collection route on the premises and loaded directly onto the truck bed.

Customer Feedback

“I just want to extend my sincere thanks for such a smooth collection of the two ovens yesterday morning. Excellent service, and a very competent and helpful driver.

I anticipate it may be sometime before we are selling equipment again, but when the time comes we will certainly be back in contact, and in the meantime will be recommending your services to others.

Thanks again” -Graham Fowler, Clifford Springs

What Happens to it Now?

Collected by our transport team, the machines were brought back to our warehouse to be checked over by our in-house team of engineers.

Once checked and a bill of health passed, the oven & circular finisher were photographed, and the machines added to the website for another manufacturer to buy.

This is a snapshot of the many machines Riley process every month, we are always searching for more to buy.
