US$1 billion in online annual sales of equipment

US$1 billion in online annual sales of equipment

On December 7, 2011, Todd Halina purchased an articulated dump truck online from our Edmonton, Alberta auction—and helped us reach US$1 billion in online sales for 2011.

"I wasn’t able to go in person to the site today for the auction, so it was really handy to be able to bid right from my office,” said Mr. Halina (pictured here with Ritchie Bros. co-founder Dave Ritchie)."

Unreserved commitment to safety

One of our core values at Ritchie Bros. is “We do what is right.” And when it comes to the safety of our customers and employees, doing the right thing guides how we work.

As part of our unreserved commitment to safety, we bring you a safety tip for when you visit a Ritchie Bros. auction site:

Always maintain three points of contact (both hands and a secure foot hold) when you’re climbing in and out of equipment or large vehicles.
