Maltby

Ritchie Bros has a long history in the UK. Going back to 1987, when the company held its first European auction in Liverpool and a series of auctions took place at multiple locations in the UK Midlands in the following years, including in Donington Park.

In early 2019, the Ritchie Bros. team opened its new UK headquarters in Maltby (Rotherham) and began developing the site step by step with local contractors. Having served as a coal mine for a century since 1912, the Maltby site has a unique industrial atmosphere. Ritchie Bros. brought a new industrial purpose, and work needed to be done. Over the past years, the site has been completely transformed: surfaces were levelled, old structures demolished if not renovated, new offices were constructed, and equipment services added.

In the run-up to an auction, customers can visit the Maltby yard & inspect the machinery in person before they bid or buy.
