Company Closure: Selling the Whole Fleet
Closing a company or shutting a depot puts every vehicle on the market at once, usually against a lease-end date on the premises. The job is not just selling vans — it is clearing a site cleanly, evidencing the values achieved, and doing both before the keys to the building go back.
One programme, every vehicle
Cars, vans, tippers, trailers and plant-carrying vehicles usually leave together. We appraise the full asset list, identify which items suit trade auction and which suit salvage, and collect everything on a single schedule.
Solvent closure and director duties
In a solvent wind-down the directors have to show assets were realised at proper value. Auction sale gives an open-market result and documentary evidence of it — normally more defensible than a private trade sale at a negotiated price.
- Independent valuation before disposal
- Open-market sale through the EAMA Group network
- Written results per registration for the accounts
Clearing the site
Where the premises are being handed back we clear all vehicles in one visit, including non-runners and vehicles blocked in, and confirm the site is empty in writing.

Frequently Asked Questions
We're closing one depot, not the company — same service?
Yes. Depot closures are handled the same way: full appraisal, scheduled clearance and per-vehicle reporting.
Can you provide a valuation before we commit to closing?
Yes, and most businesses ask for exactly that. The valuation is free and carries no obligation.
What about vehicles on finance?
We work with the settlement figures and the funders. Where a vehicle is in negative equity we'll tell you before it is sold.
Is this the same as an insolvency disposal?
No — insolvency has different requirements and an appointed office holder. See our insolvency asset disposal page.
