I.R.A.Y. Auction specializes in quarterly Heavy Equipment, Construction, Truck, and Trailer auctions. These auctions, held in March, June, September and December, help our customers manage their equipment needs. Our extensive advertising includes national and regional trade magazines as well as internet advertising. This allows us to target our marketing to those who have an interest in the type of units available, which in turn brings competitive bidding and creates favorable results for our buyers and sellers.
We have auctioneering experience in a range of areas from real estate to charitable auctions for our community. Our vast experience includes various equipment categories, such as heavy construction, quarry, farm and agricultural, as well as logging. We offer years of experience auctioning semi tractors, trailers, vehicles and utility trucks, along with liquidating company assets.
We are located on 40 acres at the intersection of Minnesota Highways 95 and 25, about 12 miles east of Saint Cloud. Our centrally located facility is equipped with fencing, video cameras, underground sensors, and watchmen quarters to secure our property. Our facility has a drive-over viewing ramp so equipment can be viewed in motion. We evaluate each piece of equipment as it comes in. To help maximize your return, we make recommendations as to necessary repairs or refurbishments. In addition, we are equipped with onsite parking and a large internet auditorium.

I.R.A.Y. Auctions was founded by Colonel Ray Henry, a 3rd generation auctioneer and a certified appraiser. Ray's grandfather Maurice J. Henry started his auction career back in 1943, and Don Henry, Ray's father, started his auction career in 1962.
I.R.A.Y. Auctions was founded in 2000. Ray’s son Donald Henry is continuing this legacy and tradition by bringing IRAY into the next stage of Auctioneering through incorporating new technology and marketing techniques. Currently, I.R.A.Y. Auctions holds quarterly auctions in March, June, September, and December.

Our business mission is to deliver auction results that benefit both the Buyer and Seller and to become a leader in the industry. We intend to fulfill this mission by giving extra effort to customer service through our sales and marketing teamwork.
