Recovery

Truckload and multi-pallet recovery by condition

Median winning bid as a share of seller-declared manifest retail, by condition, from paid sales from the last 365 days.

Not enough sales yet: we publish a median only after at least 10 manifested lots from at least 3 sellers sell in a group.

See how the figures are built on liquidation pallet prices on Two Bro Sales.

How it’s calculated: winning bid (hammer) ÷ seller-declared manifest retail, for manifested lots with a paid order only. Buyer and seller fees are excluded. A group is shown only with at least 10 sales from at least 3 sellers, and no seller above 50% of them. Data as of Oct 16, 2026. Past results don’t guarantee resale value.

Supply

Where liquidation truckloads come from

  • Return and distribution centers of big-box retail programs, which clear goods in full trailers rather than one pallet at a time.
  • Supplier closeouts and overstock, where a manufacturer or distributor empties warehouse space and the load is deep in a few items.
  • Seller consolidations. A liquidator in metro Atlanta builds a trailer from many pallets of one condition or category and sells it as a single lot.
  • Multi-pallet liquidation lots split from bigger loads, sized so a buyer with a box truck or a towed trailer can take them home in one trip.
  • Mixed truckload liquidation of returns, shelf pulls and new goods in one trailer, which is why each lot's condition code and manifest matter more than the word truckload.
Know before you bid

Before you bid on a truckload

  • Freight is your job.Pickup happens at the seller's warehouse, and a full load needs a 53 ft trailer and a carrier you book yourself. Get a carrier quote before the auction so that cost is already inside your maximum bid.

  • Weight limits.A loaded tractor and trailer can't exceed 80,000 lb gross, which leaves roughly 44,000 to 47,000 lb of cargo in a dry van (ATS). Dense loads such as appliances or liquids can reach that limit before the floor is full.

  • Vehicle class for smaller lots.A 26 ft box truck holds about 12 standard pallets single-stacked (Mercer Transportation), and a straight truck rated at 26,001 lb GVWR or more counts as a commercial motor vehicle that needs a CDL (49 CFR 383.5). Check the rating before you rent.

  • One lot, one bet.A disappointing truckload is two dozen disappointing pallets, not one, so read the whole manifest and the photos rather than the first page and the hero shot.

  • Space and labour at your end.Two dozen pallets need floor space, a forklift or pallet jack and people to unload them. Line that up before the trailer pulls in.

  • Cash timing.Payment is due within 2 business days of the close, and invoices above $2,500 are paid by bank transfer (ACH); the seller's payout is held until pickup. New buyers start with $2,500 of open bidding exposure, raised by the team as paid history builds, so a first truckload may need a higher limit.

  • The claims clock.On a manifested truckload, claims are filed within 48 hours of the confirmed pickup and shortages under 5% of manifest retail aren't claimable. If your carrier needs two days to reach your dock, most of that window passes on the road. Unmanifested loads are as-is.

Where truckload goods end up

  • Bin stores across the Southeast that restock weekly and can turn one truckload into several weeks of bins.
  • Discount chains and closeout stores with their own trucks, docks and warehouse space.
  • Exporters filling containers, for whom a full trailer of one condition is efficient to consolidate.
  • Wholesalers who break truckloads into single pallets for smaller resellers in their area.
  • Established online resellers with warehouse room, often starting with multi-pallet lots before stepping up to full trailers.

Who buys liquidation truckloads

  • Discount chains and closeout retailers with their own freight.
  • Exporters consolidating goods for overseas markets.
  • Wholesalers and pallet resellers who split loads for smaller buyers.

FAQ

Truckload questions

How many pallets are in a liquidation truckload?

Usually about 24 to 26 standard pallets. A 53 ft dry van fits 26 standard 48×40 pallets single-stacked (NTG Freight), and liquidation loads often come in slightly under that because of oversized or heavy pallets. Each lot states its own pallet count, so go by the listing.

Can my own carrier pick up a truckload?

Yes. Buyer-arranged freight is allowed: your driver gives the pickup code and the signer's name at the seller's dock, and a photo or bill of lading may be taken. Two Bro Sales doesn't book or broker freight, so arrange the carrier yourself and ask the seller about dock hours and loading.

What is the difference between a truckload and a multi-pallet lot?

A truckload fills a trailer and suits buyers with a carrier and a warehouse. A multi-pallet lot is a smaller group of pallets, often sized for a box truck or a trailer you tow yourself, and is the usual step up from single pallets. Both are sold as one lot on one invoice.

Do I need a higher bidding limit for a truckload?

Possibly. Newly approved buyers start with $2,500 of open bidding exposure, and the team raises it as you build a record of paid orders. If a truckload is your goal, build that record on smaller lots first or contact the team about your limit well before the auction.

When does the claims window start if my truckload travels for days?

At the confirmed pickup at the seller's dock, not when the trailer reaches you. Count pallets and check wrap and labels at pickup, have the driver note any exceptions on the bill of lading, and count again quickly on arrival. Unmanifested loads have no claim window at all.
