HOW IS THE TRADING EXPERIENCE WITH SAG HEAVY EQUIPMENT?

Firstly, we'll connect you with a local SAG Heavy Equipment expert. They will discuss identifying a suitable replacement with you. When you're considering trading in, we arrange for a specialist to examine your machinery, ensuring a comprehensive assessment. Following this, our valuation expert will determine the trade value of your equipment.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR DIRECT PURCHASES?

Our purchasing method is streamlined and efficient. Unlike trading, we offer you a competitive cash price for your machinery directly.

CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE CONSIGNMENT METHOD?

We start by pairing you with an SAG Heavy Equipment expert in your region. They will talk through pricing strategies and consignment duration. After agreeing on terms, our inspection team will evaluate your machinery. We then market it across our extensive dealer network, aiming for a swift and profitable sale.

HOW DOES THE AUCTION OPTION WORK?

Your journey begins with a discussion with your local SAG Heavy Equipment representative. They'll assist in arranging auction details, including scheduling and machine delivery. You maintain ownership until the auction ends, and you are responsible for all associated costs. SAG Heavy Equipment takes charge of auction logistics, and proceeds (after fees) contribute to your new machine's trade-in value. This method is adaptable for like-kind Exchanges, with extra steps when needed.

WHAT TYPES OF MACHINERY DO YOU DEAL IN?

We focus on earthmoving and construction equipment, but our interest extends to aerial devices, industrial engines, compressors, forklifts, generators, trailers, and more. We generally avoid cranes, agricultural machinery, and equipment with significant safety issues.

IS THE AGE OF MY EQUIPMENT A CONCERN?

Not necessarily. We value the machinery's current state more than its age or operational hours. We're primarily interested in machines less than 10 years old with under 10,000 hours. Contact us to see if your equipment meets our criteria.

DO YOU HANDLE EQUIPMENT FROM VARIOUS MANUFACTURERS?

Absolutely. We are open to dealing with machinery from all major brands.

IS EQUIPMENT LOCATION AN ISSUE?

Not at all. We handle equipment transactions both domestically and internationally.

WHAT IS THE TIMEFRAME FOR THESE PROCESSES?

Timeframes vary: • Trading: Typically one week, depending on location and availability • Buying: Around one week, subject to location and availability • Consignment: Can range from a week to six months, depending on market conditions • Auction: Based on the next available auction plus processing time

HOW DO YOU DETERMINE THE VALUE OF MACHINERY?

We rely on a skilled team of evaluators and assessors who combine their expertise with up-to-date market data and valuation tools to accurately price your machinery.

WHAT'S THE APPROACH TO PRICING CONSIGNMENTS?

We assess your machinery and recommend a starting price. The final decision rests with you. Pricing is flexible, aimed either at maximizing return or hastening the sale. All reasonable offers will be presented for your consideration.

WHAT ARE THE PAYMENT OPTIONS?

You can choose from a check, bank transfer, or applying the sum towards a new purchase. For an additional fee, we also offer bank wire transfers.

HOW TO DEAL WITH A LIEN ON MY EQUIPMENT?

We request a lien release from your financial institution. Upon receipt, we proceed with the seller's payment.

DO YOU OFFER EQUIPMENT PICK-UP SERVICES?

Yes, we collaborate to determine the most suitable method for transporting your machinery.

CAN YOU DETAIL THE INSPECTION PROCESS?

It begins with linking you to an SAG Heavy Equipment specialist. We then organize an inspection of your machinery at our facility or its current location. If offsite, we send a dedicated inspector for a thorough examination. A detailed report is then prepared for valuation purposes.

SHOULD I REPAIR MY EQUIPMENT BEFORE TRADING OR SELLING?

Equipment in better condition often commands a higher price. We have fully equipped service shops to assist with repairs if needed. Consult with your SAG Heavy Equipment

ARE ATTACHMENTS ALSO PURCHASED?

Yes, we consider attachments based on their type and condition.
