WHEN BUYING EQUIPMENT Leave A Money Trail

We accept cash, checks, money orders, bank wires, and credit cards. When you pay for your equipment, we’ll send you a copy of your receipt. Having paperwork to prove your transaction will come in handy if the equipment you bought arrives in a condition other than what you expected. It can also be beneficial when submitting documents to the government.

Let us know if you need proof of purchase in the future.

Check For a Clean Title

We can’t sell heavy equipment if the title is in a bank or financer’s name. It needs to be paid for in full by the previous owner to be listed. Before listing equipment, we always confirm ownership. Our office is available to answer questions about titles. 

Set a Budget

Do some research to find out what the machine is worth. Consider the machine’s make and model, its operating time, and its depreciation value. These factors will help you decide how much to bid.
