Medical, Dental & Lab Equipment Auctions
7 auction sites · part of 390 auction sites UX Search covers
Hospitals, clinics, labs and drug makers sell surplus equipment at auction, from exam tables and dental chairs to centrifuges and imaging systems. These are the sites that sell it.
Hospitals run by the VA, states, counties and universities replace equipment on a schedule and send the old units to surplus: exam tables, hospital beds, wheelchairs, stretchers, patient monitors, infusion pumps, autoclaves, dental chairs and lab instruments such as centrifuges and microscopes. Ambulances and medical vans are sold with the vehicles. Much of it is sold in lots to resellers and to clinics abroad, and much of it is still serviceable.
Buyers should know that regulated devices may need recertification before clinical use, that imaging equipment such as X-ray units can carry disposal rules of its own, and that most lots are sold as is without a working guarantee. Our live listings and sold prices below cover the medical and lab equipment in the government auction index right now.

Before you bid

- Count the fees. Buyer’s premiums and documentation fees vary by auction. Check each site’s terms before you bid.
- Plan the haul. Heavy equipment may need a permit load and a lowboy. Get a shipping quote before you bid.
