Sale of diverse assets and inventory from manufacturer TerraRoc, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, opens
March 26

ROANOKE, Va., March 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A Tiger Group online auction opening on March 26 features geotechnical equipment inventory originally valued at $3.5 million, along with diverse machinery and equipment (M&E), tools, rolling stock, material-handling assets and more.

The timed, online auction at SoldTiger.com opens on Thursday, March 26 at 10:30 a.m. (ET) and closes on Thursday, April 2 at 10:30 a.m. (ET). 

The assets are from the 14,000-square-foot Roanoke facility of TerraRoc, Inc., a Delaware corporation that manufactures items for the construction and oil-and-gas industries. Its products include in-demand downhole hammers (8 to 30 inches) and carbide- and diamond-tipped drill bits (8-7/8 to 36 inches in diameter).

"Whether you're drilling for oil or natural gas or building a data center, a high-rise apartment complex or a new municipal bridge, this is the type of high-utility equipment you need to go through rock," said John Coelho, Senior Director, Tiger Commercial & Industrial.

TURNKEY OPPORTUNITY
Staffed and still operating, the Roanoke facility is available for turnkey purchase. "This company has a strong customer base, continuing monthly cash flow and affordable rent in a strategically located part of the city," Coelho said. "It's a solid opportunity for a turnkey operator to acquire the entire business and hit the ground running. The landlord has expressed a willingness to renegotiate the lease with a replacement tenant."
