Used Excavator Buying Tips
Buying a used excavator allows you to get the machine you need at an affordable cost. You can save a significant amount of money by buying a pre-owned model. Below we cover some tips on navigating the shopping process so you can find the perfect fit. When you are ready to check out some high-quality used excavators for sale, visit Bobcat PNW. We have six locations across Washington, and we proudly serve all those in Auburn.
Build a Budget
Your first step is to think about how much you can realistically spend. Here you are trying to accomplish two goals. You want to avoid falling in love with a model that's beyond your price point, so you eliminate it from the start. You also want to avoid buying a lower quality model or getting lower specs than you can afford. Instead, you want to get a quality model within your budget so you can work efficiently.
Find a Seller
Next, you'll need to find a trustworthy seller. There are two main options—a used excavator dealership and a private seller. A dealership is a strategic choice for a few reasons. First, they have a brand reputation to uphold, which means that you can expect a fair deal from them. Otherwise, you could leave poor online reviews and scare away future customers. Second, they will have a wider range of options, so it will be easy for you to find exactly what you’re looking for! Plus, it will allow you to compare multiple used excavators in one stop, rather than going from one individual to another to yet another.
Inspect the Used Excavator
Once you find a machine you are interested in, you'll want to conduct a thorough inspection. Look for any potential problems that could lead to expensive repairs down the road.
You'll also want to ask for copies of maintenance records to see what work has already been done on the equipment. Ask questions about how the machine was used, why it is being sold, and if any repairs were done in the past. The more you know about the used excavator’s history, the better you can predict how it will perform in the future.
