10 Tips On Buying Used Construction Machinery At Auction:

  1. Research is Key: Before participating in any auction, thoroughly research the machinery you are interested in. Know the specific models, their market value, and any common issues or recall information.

  2. Check the Auction House’s Reputation: Ensure that you are buying from a reputable auction house. Look for reviews and testimonials from previous buyers to get an understanding of their reliability and the quality of machinery they auction.

  3. Inspect the Machinery: If possible, visit the location to inspect the machinery in person. Check for any signs of wear and tear, damage, or repairs. If you are not able to visit in person, see if there are options for a virtual inspection or if there are detailed photos and descriptions available.

  4. Verify the Documentation: Ensure that the machinery has all the necessary documentation including service records, operation manuals, and any certificates of compliance if applicable. This information can give you a better idea of how well the machinery has been maintained.

  5. Know the Auction Terms: Familiarize yourself with the auction terms and conditions. Understand the payment terms, any buyer’s premiums that may be applied, and the process for removing the machinery from the auction site once purchased.

  6. Set a Budget: Determine your budget beforehand and stick to it. Remember to account for additional costs such as taxes, buyer’s premiums, and transportation of the machinery.
  7. Participate in a Dry Run: If you are new to auctions, consider attending a few without the intention of buying, just to understand how the process works and to get comfortable with the bidding process.

  8. Use a Checklist: Create a checklist of features and specifications that are crucial for your needs. Use this list to evaluate each piece of machinery and ensure it meets your requirements.

  9. Ask Questions: Don’t hesitate to ask the seller or auction house questions about the machinery. If there are any uncertainties or if you need additional information, it is important to clarify before making a bid.

  10. Be Patient: Don’t rush into a purchase. Auctions can be fast-paced, but it’s important to stay calm and focused to ensure you make the right decision. Wait for the right piece of machinery that fits your needs and budget.
