Laboratory Equipment Auction
Managing a laboratory demands precision, compliance, and streamlined workflows — so when it’s time to upgrade instruments, clear unused assets, or shut down a facility, you can’t afford disruption. Liquidating lab equipment often involves complex inventory, sensitive handling, and strict documentation requirements.
Auction Masters removes the operational burden with a secure, efficient auction process built for scientific environments. Whether you're offloading analytical instruments, general lab equipment, consumable inventory, or an entire R&D department, we help you convert assets into immediate value while maintaining control and transparency.
Why let equipment sit idle in storage, lose calibration, or depreciate further? Our Minnesota-based platform connects your lab inventory with motivated buyers nationwide — research facilities, universities, biotech startups, QC labs, industrial testing operations, and more — giving you a fast, compliant, and profitable liquidation channel.
