Alex Lyon & Son conducted a complete liquidation retirement auction on Sept. 13 for Imperial Water Proofing. The auction was conducted at the Rosen Co. Inc./Buddy Barton Auctions Cleveland, Ohio, quarterly auction site.

When Alex Lyon & Son's Jack Lyon met with Marvin Rosen of Rosen Co. Inc./Buddy Barton Auctions, the two discovered that they had very similar backgrounds as both of their families started out in the dairy cow business before directing their focus on auctioneering. Both Marvin Rosen and his wife Sheila were on hand at the Alex Lyon & Son auction to assist and see Jack in action wielding the auction hammer.

Equipment up for bid included a large selection of excavators, wheel loaders, rollers, skid steers, boom lifts and telescopic forklifts. Also, 65 hook containers, along with a variety of trucks and support equipment were up for sale. The auction drew a sizable crowd onsite while also attracting strong online bidding. CEG
