Not everything we buy comes on a pallet. We also purchase plant and machinery directly from businesses and individuals across the UK.
On this occasion, the seller had a well-maintained Kubota mini excavator and a heavy-duty plant trailer that were surplus to their needs. They wanted to release the capital tied up in the equipment without the uncertainty that usually comes with selling plant privately or through auction. What they were after was simple. A fair price, a quick sale, and none of the hassle.




Selling machinery on the open market tends to bring the same headaches. Auctions carry fees and leave the final price uncertain until the hammer falls. Private listings invite a stream of enquiries, tyre kickers and time-wasters, and viewings that eat into your working week. Neither route gives you certainty on price or timing, which is exactly what most sellers actually want.
Our seller wanted a single buyer who would assess the equipment quickly, make a firm offer, and handle the rest.
We assessed the excavator and trailer, made a competitive outright offer with no commission, and arranged prompt payment. Collection was booked at a time that suited the seller, and we handled the transport ourselves. No advertising, no waiting on bids, no chasing buyers. Just a straightforward purchase with fast payment and a clean collection.
If it's surplus to your requirements, we'll assess it quickly and make a competitive offer. We regularly buy mini excavators, dumpers, telehandlers, forklifts, rollers and access equipment, along with plant trailers, agricultural machinery, attachments and buckets, and commercial vehicles.
