Mini Excavator Salvage

It is not just cars you get within salvage auctions up and own the USA and the UK but often building equipment also and recently quite a lot of mini excavators. So long as these are safe, these can be good for resale as they just need to be put on a trailer and transported to where they can used. However you need to be careful because getting holds of mini excavator parts can be tricky especially of you are after used parts.

Take rubber tracks for instance. 3 days solid and still no joy, these type of parts are probably better buying new anyway, but when you add the cost of the new rubber tracks to the cost of the salvage unit, the price starts to rocket up. Although quite easy to fix, the absence of good used parts, or even an online part service like they have with car parts, make the job harder.

So the advice is clear, if you are going to buy machinery like a min excavator, then first do your homework and find out where you can get these parts. If you can’t, then you need to factor in the cost of new excavator parts to the price you are prepared to go to at auction.
