LOUISVILLE, Ky (WDRB) -- Contractors, businesses, and DIY buyers have a rare chance this week to grab heavy machinery and other gear from the Louisville Water Company in an online-only auction.

Bidders are registering from across the country, making it a highly competitive sale.

Up for bid are dump trucks, utility vehicles, backhoes, excavators, forklifts, generators, welding tools, and office equipment.

"The equipment has been regularly serviced and well taken care of," said auctioneer Bill Menish. "This is a great chance to buy quality items with plenty of life left — and at auction prices."

Bidding opened Wednesday, Oct. 22, and will close at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 29. Registration is free online.
