ABOUT OUR COMPANY

Ron and Mark Stock are the co-founders of BigIron Auctions and BigIron Realty. As pioneers in the industry, they were among the first to provide a safe, secure way for owners to receive fair market value for their assets via an online auction. Over the years, we’ve expanded our operations, and now conduct weekly equipment, land and livestock auctions from coast-to-coast.

Mark Ron

80 YEARS OF COMBINED EXPERIENCE Despite our growth, one thing remains unchanged – our commitment to providing an honest, trustworthy auction. We start with all auctions being unreserved, so participants can rest assured that everything on our site will sell to the highest bidder.

Plus, we facilitate complete transparency between buyers and sellers, allowing potential bidders to contact the previous owner with any questions they may have. Ron & Mark never forgot where they came from. BigIron Auctions is headquartered in the same rural community where they grew-up – St. Edward, Nebraska. They attribute their success to the to the lessons they learned growing up on the family farm – values such as honesty, hard work, and lending a helping hand. BigIron Auctions has served as an industry leader for over 38 years, reinventing the way used farm, construction, and transportation equipment is sold by featuring weekly online auctions every Wednesday. BigIron’s acquisition of Sullivan Auctioneers will grow it to one of the largest unreserved online auction businesses serving rural America, selling tens of thousands of items weekly to registered bidders representing a global marketplace.

TESTIMONIALS

”I was pleased with the prices. I think that if it hadn’t been for BigIron and the very broad coverage throughout the United States that we received, I don’t think that the prices would have been nearly as good as they were on what we sold.” - Jim & Vicki Herzog, Nebraska H&H CATTLE COMPANY RETIREMENT

JANTZ FARMS RETIREMENT

“Our sale had a lot of exposure, and the proof is in the pudding. The results were outstanding, it exceeded my expectations.” - Travis & Brooke Jantz, Kansas

4M FARMS RETIREMENT

“The Open House that BigIron hosted for us – that was a wonderful situation. They came out here, made a tent outside and had enough food for one hundred people. The people that were here were interesting in asking questions and inspecting the equipment. We really appreciated that - It set them apart from any other crew there is around.” - Delton & Delwin Meyer, Nebraska “I’m a results oriented person. If I wasn’t satisfied with BigIron’s results, it would have been one and done. But the results keep bringing me back.” - Greg Van Zanten, South Dakota WEEKLY EQUIPMENT AUCTION
