We buy heavy machinery in China under the same rule as everything else: if we didn't see it, we don't sell it. These photos are our machines, in our yard, on the day we inspected them.
The big one
This is the heavy end: large earthmoving, light mining, infrastructure. When a client asks about a machine this size, this is what they see before deciding.
Availability and hours change weekly. Message us and we'll send what's on the ground today, with photos and video of the specific machine.
How it's checked
Anyone can repaint an excavator. What can't be dressed up is the engine, the hour meter and the undercarriage. That is exactly what we look at, and what you get photographed before paying anything.
Live test
A photo proves the machine exists. A video proves it works. Before closing we test boom, slew and travel, and send you the recording.
If something sounds wrong, you'll hear it too. We don't edit reality — that's the point of being there.
Real video from our yardUndercarriage
The undercarriage can be 20 % of a used excavator's value. We check it chain by chain, with the machine lifted and moving.
It's the part that turns a cheap blind purchase into an expensive one.
The fleet
We work mostly with CAT: 305, 306, 308, 320 and 330. Looking for another brand or a specific model? We'll find it — the verification process is the same.
Machine yard in China · filmed by us
If a machine is below market there is a reason, and it's almost always in the hour meter, the undercarriage or a bad repair. When we find it, we say so and look for another one. Our business is you buying again, not buying once.
FAQ
Yes. Every image on this page is of machines that passed through our hands, photographed by us at the supplier's yard in China.
When you ask about a specific machine, what you get is photos and video of that unit, with its hour meter visible.
We send you a photo of the screen switched on and the start-up video. We also check undercarriage wear, the seat and the controls: low hours with a wrecked cab doesn't add up.
That comparison is what exposes most tampered hour meters.
It's the most common reason used machinery gets held at port, especially in New Zealand and Australia. It's prevented by pressure-washing the machine at origin, undercarriage and bucket included.
We always do it before loading, and send you the washing video as proof.
Mini and mid-size machines fit a 40ft container, sometimes with the boom removed or the cab lowered. Heavy machines usually go on flat rack or break bulk.
We tell you once the machine is chosen, because it changes the freight cost considerably.
