S&S Auction in Aberdeen, South Dakota runs some of the largest new equipment auction events in the state through K-BID.com. Their auctions regularly feature 400–450 lots of new Chinese-brand equipment spanning skid steers, mini excavators, skid steer attachments, 40’ shipping containers, carports, storage sheds, automotive hoists, and more — all available to South Dakota buyers through competitive online bidding.
The current auction lineup is headlined by Future Equipment — one of the most versatile Chinese-brand equipment manufacturers appearing in Midwest auction markets today — alongside strong representation from LandHonor, AGT Industrial, Agrotk, Wolverine, Mower King, and Top Cat. Whether you’re a South Dakota contractor looking for a capable skid steer, a rancher building out an attachment inventory, or a rural property owner in need of storage, this auction has substantial depth across every category.
This post covers what’s available by category, with particular focus on Future Equipment lots in South Dakota — the brand carrying the most lots and the headline machines in this auction.
Future Equipment Limited has built a growing presence in K-BID auction markets across the Midwest — and the S&S Auction in Aberdeen is one of the strongest Future Equipment lot selections available in South Dakota. The brand covers skid steers, mini skid steers, attachments, golf carts, and specialty equipment across a wide range of applications.
Future FT-V1000 Mid-Size Kubota Diesel Skid Steer with Pilot Controls
The headline machine in this auction. The FT-V1000 is a mid-size skid steer powered by a Kubota diesel engine with pilot controls — the joystick-based control system found on professional-grade equipment. Two lots of this machine are available. The Kubota diesel designation matters for South Dakota buyers: Kubota engines have established dealer and service support across the agricultural Midwest, which means parts availability and mechanic familiarity that Chinese-brand engines often lack. At auction pricing well below dealer retail for a comparable machine, the FT-V1000 is the lot to watch in this auction.
Future Skid Steer Lineup — Multiple Models
Beyond the FT-V1000, Future’s skid steer lineup in this auction includes the 360T, FT 36C, and FT 323Z — compact skid steer models at multiple price points with multiple lots available across the auction. For South Dakota buyers who need a capable compact skid steer without the price tag of a name-brand machine, the Future skid steer lineup offers genuine options across size classes.
Future FT 800 Remote Controlled Mower
A standout specialty lot — the FT 800 is a remote-controlled slope and rough terrain mower designed for applications where a traditional walk-behind or ride-on mower can’t safely operate. Two lots available. For South Dakota landowners managing steep terrain, waterway banks, or roadside slopes, this is a category that rarely appears in auction format.
Future Off-Road Golf Carts — 4-Seat 60V Deluxe
Two Future golf cart lots in Blue and Black. Off-road capable, electric, 4-seat configuration. Consistent with golf cart demand seen in K-BID auction data across Iowa and Minnesota, these lots attract buyers for farm transport, rural property use, and recreational applications.

LandHonor Attachments
LandHonor brings a deep attachment catalog to this auction including the 72” Harley Power Rake Soil Conditioner (one of the highest-bid attachment lots in the auction), 72” skeleton grapple bucket, 72” combination bucket with hydraulic soil conditioner, 72” brush cutter, 72” 6-way dozer blade, 72” land leveler with ripper teeth, 72” vibratory screening bucket, rotating grapple claw, 60” vibratory roller/compactor, 48” trencher, 48” hydraulic adjustable pallet forks, auger with bit sets, concrete breaker, and mini skid steer-specific attachments including grapple buckets, pallet forks with bale spear mounts, and a 9pc mini excavator attachment set.
LandHonor Farm and Property Lots
Alongside equipment, LandHonor brings several farm and property categories worth attention for South Dakota buyers:
Rounding out the auction are four additional brands with strong South Dakota K-BID auction track records:
AGT Industrial / Agrotk
AGT and its Agrotk label bring multiple lots of the YSRT14 skid steer (two lots), 10,000lb 2-post automotive hoists (three lots across the auction), 48” skid steer pallet forks (high volume), 66” no-till seeder with 3-point and skid steer mounts, 9pc mini excavator attachment sets, 45” excavator flail mower, 54” excavator brush cutter (Agrotk), YC-32G portable sawmill, and Agrotk tire machine. The AGT 10,000lb hoist at multiple lots is a reliable shop equipment category for South Dakota buyers outfitting farm shops and service operations.
Wolverine
Wolverine appears in this auction with 72” skid steer sickle mowers (two lots) and 3-Point Class II quick tach and receiver hitches. The sickle mower is a practical South Dakota lot — roadside, ditch, and pasture mowing with a skid steer-mount reciprocating blade system suited to tall grass and light brush.
Mower King
Multiple lots of 72” brush cutters, 72” rotary tillers, 48” trenchers, and auger sets with multiple bit sizes. Mower King is a budget-tier brand that rounds out the attachment selection at entry-level pricing for South Dakota buyers looking for basic utility attachments without competing for the premium lots.
Top Cat
Two lots of the Top Cat 72” Heavy Duty Brush Cutter. Top Cat has appeared in South Dakota K-BID auction data previously alongside Wolverine and Raytree in the brush cutter category — buyers comparing brands at auction now have all three represented in the same event.
Shipping container lots are among the most competitive categories at South Dakota K-BID auctions, and this auction features multiple 40’ high-cube multi-door containers across several lots — both the 4-door (four 7’ side doors) and 2-door (two 13’ side doors) configurations, in light grey and beige colors.
Multi-door containers are the premium configuration in this category. The additional side access doors eliminate the need to clear the full container length to reach items stored in the middle — a practical advantage for South Dakota farm and ranch storage where a container holds a mix of equipment, supplies, and materials accessed regularly throughout the season.
Also notable: a 7’x10’ storage container and jobsite office with walk-in door and window — a compact, mobile structure suited to job site use, remote property storage, or small tool and supply storage without the footprint of a full 40’ container.
Container pricing at South Dakota K-BID auctions has historically fallen in the mid-thousands range for standard HC units, with multi-door configurations commanding a premium. Current bids across the container lots in this auction are already showing strong buyer interest.
K-BID.com is one of the Upper Midwest’s largest online auction platforms, connecting buyers across South Dakota and the region with auction affiliates running competitive online events throughout the year. S&S Auction in Aberdeen is one of K-BID’s established South Dakota affiliates. Here’s how the bidding process works:
Where can I buy a new skid steer at auction in South Dakota?
S&S Auction in Aberdeen, South Dakota runs regular new equipment auction events through K-BID.com that consistently feature multiple skid steer lots. The current auction includes the Future FT-V1000 Kubota Diesel Skid Steer with pilot controls, Future 360T, FT 36C, and FT 323Z compact skid steers, the AGT YSRT14, and the LandHonor LHR-ME380X2 — covering a range of size classes and price points for South Dakota buyers.
What is the Future FT-V1000 and why does it stand out at auction?
The Future FT-V1000 is a mid-size skid steer powered by a Kubota diesel engine with pilot controls — joystick-based hydraulic controls that provide smoother, more intuitive operation than traditional hand-and-foot lever systems. The Kubota engine designation is significant for South Dakota buyers because Kubota diesel powerplants have established dealer networks and mechanic familiarity across the agricultural Midwest, reducing parts sourcing risk compared to proprietary Chinese-brand engines. Two lots are available in the current S&S Auction — search active South Dakota auctions on K-BID.com to see current bid activity.
