Closing a business is a hard run of decisions, and asset disposal is rarely the one people want to be making themselves. Charter takes the machinery side off your plate so you can focus on the people, the wind-down, and the paperwork that matters.
We've handled closures from single-bay engineering shops to multi-site manufacturing groups. Every closure is different, and the process flexes accordingly — but the principle is the same: get you a fair price on every machine, handle every buyer-side conversation, and leave the site clean.
Why Charter for this
- Single Charter specialist runs the closure end-to-end — one person to ring.
- Free, no-obligation valuation across every machine on site.
- We market to our global buyer network — closures move faster when buyers know we're working a portfolio, not a single lot.
- 0% sellers fees. The agreed sale price is what hits your account.
- Logistics, paperwork, and handover handled by Charter.
What's different about this process
Closures usually warrant an on-site visit early — we walk the floor with you, value everything, and agree a marketing approach before anything goes public. If timing is tight (lease end, landlord deadline) we work back from that date.
