Honest value
If your machine is worth more on the used market, we'll tell you. Some machines are better sold to another contractor or at an auction, and saying so costs us nothing.

More about us
How we handle excavators
A few things we stick to.
Credit for attachments
We look at the machine and its attachments separately. You can see where the value sits rather than taking one number on faith.
Safe loading
Booms, buckets and tracks are secured before anything moves. If a machine can't be loaded safely on the day, we stop and plan it again.
Responsible recycling
Fluids and components are handled properly. Usable parts are reused and the steel is recycled. Nothing is dumped.
Paperwork explained
We walk you through ownership, liens and the bill of sale. If something is unusual, like an estate or a dissolved company, we explain what's usually needed.
BC only
We work across the Lower Mainland and the Fraser Valley. That covers Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster, Surrey, Richmond, Delta, the Tri-Cities, Maple Ridge, Mission, Abbotsford and Chilliwack.
