Auction report: MFs in the mix at big Bord Na Móna sale

Bord Na Móna played host to an auction of “surplus-to-requirement” tractors and machinery on Saturday, September 14.

The sale was conducted by Wilsons Auctions.

It took place at Bord Na Móna’s site in Blackwater, Co. Offaly; proceedings kicked off at circa 11:00am. The auction was open to both physical and online bidders.
