Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know the used equipment is in good working condition?
We inspect, service, and test all units before sale. You can request maintenance records, hours of use, and a pre-purchase inspection report. We also provide short-term warranties or guaranteed operational status.
What factors determine the price of a used turf machine?
Pricing depends on the model, age, engine hours, overall condition, maintenance history, attachments included, and brand. Well-maintained machines from top manufacturers (Toro, John Deere, Jacobsen) generally hold value longer.
How many hours is “too many” for a used mower or utility vehicle?
It varies by equipment type. Fairway and greens mowers often last 3,000–4,500 hours with proper care. Utility vehicles may exceed 5,000 hours. Condition and service history are more important than hours alone.
Do used reel mowers still give high-quality cuts?
Yes—if the reels and bedknives are in good condition and properly adjusted. Many sellers sharpen and set reels before resale. You may also request a cutting demo if purchasing locally.
Can you provide parts and service for older machines?
Most mainstream brands still offer parts support for older units, but availability may vary. Check with your dealer or parts supplier for specific model compatibility.
Do you offer shipping or delivery for used equipment?
We can provide local delivery, or assistance in coordinating transport. Delivery costs may vary based on distance, machine size, and carrier rates.
What should I look for when inspecting used turf equipment?
Check for engine leaks, reel or rotary wear, hydraulic performance, tire condition, electrical function, frame integrity, and signs of heavy corrosion or abuse. Ask for a cold start demonstration to assess engine health.
Do used aerators, topdressers, and specialty units hold up as well as mowers?
Yes - these machines typically have fewer moving parts and experience less engine wear. Properly maintained units can perform like new for many years, making them great candidates for used purchases.
