WOODBURN, Ore., Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Bar None Auction is excited to bring together one of the Pacific Northwest's most extensive selections of heavy equipment, trucks, and industrial assets of the year, at its upcoming Woodburn public auction on, September, 26th. The auction will feature thousands of lots and present contractors, fleet managers, independent operators, and members of the public with an opportunity to shop a wide variety of pre-owned heavy machinery, take advantage of Oregon's lack of sales tax AND, cash in on newly expanded year-end tax deductions.

Heavy Equipment in Bar None's September Auction

Section 179 of the U.S. tax code, made permanent by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBB) and now double the previous limit, allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment up to 2.5 million, if it was acquired and placed into service during the tax year. The purpose here is to improve cash flow, reduce the cost of capital and encourage businesses to reinvest in their operations.

To coincide with the OBBB, Bar None is hosting its Big Beautiful Bar None Auction featuring an Extensive Heavy Equipment Lineup Across Multiple Categories. Current listings, with more lots to be added right up to the week of the auction, include:

"It's an impressive line up of heavy iron out there in the yard" said Steven Petshow, Sales Manager - Pacific Northwest for Bar None. "This is the largest inventory of construction equipment we've had the whole year, and it comes at a great time to buy. I highly encourage folks to come to the preview days the Wednesday and Thursday before the auction and see what we have to offer – they won't be disappointed! And, as always, if you have any equipment to sell, give me a call!"

Tax Savings & Climate Advantages

In addition to its easily accessible location, Bar None's Woodburn yard offers two distinct benefits for equipment buyers. Oregon's lack of sales tax creates immediate savings for out‑of‑state purchasers, while the Pacific Northwest's temperate climate helps reduce the rust and corrosion often seen in machinery from regions with heavy road salt or extreme weather. Buyers from areas where such wear is common frequently seek out equipment here for its comparatively lower exposure to those conditions, providing a practical advantage in future upkeep.

For over two decades, Bar None Auction has earned the confidence of contractors, fleet operators, and corporations across the western United States. Businesses partner with Bar None Auction to buy, sell, and consign equipment, knowing their assets will be presented to a broad, targeted audience of motivated buyers.
