Pickles, one of Australia’s leading asset remarketing companies, has announced ‘Super Civil Month’ – a unique opportunity for buyers and industry stakeholders to acquire premium civil machinery and equipment from three major auctions held throughout October.
These auctions feature assets crucial to civil operations, including excavation, screening, and waste management equipment, reflecting the growing demand for infrastructure and large-scale civil projects across Australia.
In light of sustained investment in Australian infrastructure and growing demand for civil equipment across sectors like construction, quarrying, mining services, and waste management, Pickles says these auctions offer unparalleled access to high-quality machinery.
With strong market performance across Queensland and WA, civil assets have enjoyed robust auction results, reflecting buyer confidence in the sector despite the mixed trends in broader property and asset markets.

Pickles National Sales Manager, Industrial, James Chauncy, says the ‘Super Civil Month’ auctions represent an “incredible opportunity for industry professionals to access equipment essential to their operations”.
“We’re seeing heightened interest in civil auctions in the lead up to the Christmas season with buyers keen to secure the machinery needed for major infrastructure projects before the holiday season,” he said.
“With the increasing demand for construction, earthmoving, and waste management equipment, these auctions are a strategic chance for our buyers to gain a competitive edge.”
The Super Civil Sale highlights the critical role that these auctions play in supporting Australia’s civil construction industry, James added.
“Australia’s infrastructure pipeline is continuing to grow, with billions being invested in roads, bridges, and large-scale developments nationwide. We’ve seen some strong demand for machinery in the past month and anticipate this to remain similar over October and November.
“Businesses are always looking for innovative ways to expand their fleets efficiently and Pickles’ Super Civil Month allows companies of all sizes to access high-quality, cost-effective equipment that can help drive the nation’s infrastructure goals,” said James.
Pickles says it is committed to leading the way in connecting businesses with the right assets to help them grow as the Australian civil construction and waste management sectors expand.
James said Super Civil Month not only offers a platform to acquire necessary machinery but also reflects the ongoing evolution of the sector towards smarter, greener operations.
“Auctions are evolving beyond a traditional sales channel. We see them as an essential part of the solution for businesses looking to grow sustainably. Whether you’re looking to replace ageing fleet, meet specific project needs, or adopt greener technologies, the right machinery is crucial – and that’s where we can make a real impact,” he said.
