Frequently Asked Questions

Is ex-government catering equipment commercial grade?
Yes. Public-sector kitchens buy commercial-specification equipment built for volume service, which is why these lots suit cafes, pubs and start-up kitchens buying below new prices.
Does surplus catering equipment come with a warranty?
No - lots are sold as-is without warranty. Check whether the equipment has been disconnected by a qualified engineer, and budget for testing, installation, buyer's premium and VAT.
