Essendant is an industry-leading wholesale company that helps resellers and suppliers reach the modern workplace by powering smarter business operations, category expansion strategies and business growth opportunities.

B-Stock buyers love Essendant Liquidation Auctions for its well-packaged lots, seamless process, quality inventory, and attention to customer service. In fact, here is what some of our buyers had to say:
“We have been buying on B-Stock for about a year now. We buy from multiple vendors and we purchase roughly five to 10 trucks a week. We purchase Essendant products regularly and are always pleased with what we receive.” – ATX Auctions
“The condition of the goods was average to above average. Just as stated in the manifest.” – TNT Services, LLC.
On the Essendant Liquidation Auctions marketplace, buyers can find inventory like office furniture, cleaning supplies, woodworking equipment, general tools, plumbing equipment, printers, paper, pens and more. Essendant inventory is mainly customer-returned merchandise (but because its primary customers are repeat buyers, the returned merchandise is usually in better condition than expected). Inventory is primarily listed in Good/Fair condition with new auctions listing twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays. Learn more about Essendant Liquidation Auctions conditions descriptions.

Essendant Liquidation Auctions currently offers auction lot shipments in both LTL (less than truckload) and FTL (full truckload). Merchandise currently ships from four facilities across the U.S.: Atlanta, Dallas, Orlando, and Chicago, with more locations coming in 2020. Lots purchased on the Essendant Liquidation Auctions marketplace require binding shipping; meaning, buyers do not have to worry about organizing their own shipping. With seller-arranged binding shipping, the cost will vary depending on a few different variables including zip code, weight, density, number of pallets, how many pallet spaces will be used during transport, and a few other factors.
