Why Sell Your Equipment to MachineryBarn

We make selling heavy equipment straightforward — no auction fees, no runaround, and a written offer to weigh.

  • Fair Market Pricing

    We price against what you report — make, model, year, meter reading, condition — and put it in writing, so you have a firm number to compare rather than a range.

  • Written Quotes

    Submit your equipment details and get a firm written offer. No weeks of back-and-forth negotiation.

  • Transport Arranged

    We arrange the logistics and price them into the offer. Collection is from your yard, job site, or storage facility.

  • Clean Title Processing

    We manage all title transfers and paperwork so you don't have to deal with DMV headaches. Liens, estates, and fleet disposals — all handled.

  • Any Condition Accepted

    Running, non-running, damaged, incomplete — we buy it all. Don't spend money on repairs. We'll make an offer on your equipment as-is.

  • Direct Contact

    Questions go straight to MachineryBarn by phone or email — no marketplace and no middleman between you and the buyer.

How It Works

Four simple steps from first contact to cash in your account.

  2. 02

    Get Your Quote

    We evaluate your equipment based on make, model, year, hours, and condition. You receive a firm, no-obligation written cash offer.

  3. 03

    Accept & Schedule

    Accept the offer and we schedule collection at your location, around your operation rather than ours.

  4. 04

    Get Paid

    Once the equipment is collected and verified, payment is issued by wire transfer or certified check. No holdbacks.

The MachineryBarn Difference

Most equipment sellers face the same two options: consign with a dealer who takes months and a hefty commission, or send it to auction where reserve prices are a gamble and fees eat into your bottom line. MachineryBarn works differently. We are direct private-market buyers of heavy equipment, semi trucks, and trailers across Northern California — Placer County, Nevada County, Yuba County, and surrounding areas. There are no auction fees, no dealer commissions, and no middlemen. When we make you an offer, that is the amount you receive.

We buy 37 categories of equipment — from excavators, wheel loaders, and bulldozers to flatbed trailers, dump trucks, and specialty rigs like concrete pumps and cold planers. Whether you are a contractor winding down a fleet, a county agency disposing of surplus, or a private owner with a single machine sitting idle, we price it from the details you send and make a written offer. Our pricing is based on the machine you describe, current market demand, and the specific condition of your unit — not a generic book value that ignores reality.

Transparency is at the core of how we operate. You will know exactly how we arrived at our offer, what the next steps are, and when you will be paid. Every purchase includes collection arranged from your location and payment by wire transfer or certified check once verified. The amount quoted is the amount paid. Just a straightforward way to turn idle iron into cash.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get a quote for my equipment?

Choose your equipment type from the categories above and fill out the quote form, or call us directly. To get the most accurate offer, include the make, model, year, hour-meter reading, overall condition, and a few photos. We respond with a firm written cash offer.

Do you buy equipment that isn't running?

Yes. We buy equipment in any condition — running, non-running, damaged, partially dismantled, or incomplete. Don't spend money on repairs or worry about getting it operational. We'll evaluate it as-is and make you a fair offer based on its current state.

How fast do you pay?

Payment is issued by wire transfer or certified check once the equipment is collected and verified. Units with a clean title and straightforward ownership move through that step with nothing to resolve first. No net-30 terms and no holdbacks.

Do you charge pickup or transport fees?

No. We arrange transport and price it into the offer rather than deducting it — from your yard, job site, farm, or storage facility. You do not book a hauler or move the machine.

What makes and brands do you buy?

We buy all major brands and manufacturers — Caterpillar, John Deere, Komatsu, Volvo, Kubota, Case, Hitachi, Liebherr, Freightliner, Peterbilt, Kenworth, International, and many more. If it's heavy equipment, a semi truck, or a trailer, chances are we'll make an offer.
