Heavy Equipment Salvage: Get Paid for the Machine You Can't Justify Fixing

A dead machine doesn’t just sit there. It takes up yard space you could use, ties up money you’ve already spent, and slowly loses whatever value it has left. Every month it stays parked is another month you’re paying to store a problem instead of turning it into cash.

Your Dead Machine Is Costing You Money

Between the space it occupies, the capital locked inside it, and the declining value of its components, a machine you can’t justify fixing is an expense. Selling it to a buyer who knows what the parts are worth is the fastest way to stop the loss and put money back in your pocket.

We buy running and non-running construction and mining equipment for dismantling. You get a straightforward offer based on what the parts are actually worth, and we handle the rest.

A Buyer, Not a Broker

You deal directly with us. There’s no middleman taking a cut, no third party arranging the sale. We make the offer, we buy the machine, and we handle it from there.

750+ Equipment Types, One Source of Expertise

We’ve dismantled more than 750 machines since 1983. That experience means we know exactly what the components on your machine are worth and can make you a fair offer without a long back-and-forth.

Priced on Parts' Value, Not Scrap Weight

Scrap pricing ignores the usable components in your machine. We price based on the parts we can recover and resell, which typically means a better return for you than selling for weight alone.

One Machine or a Whole Fleet

Selling one machine or clearing out a whole fleet, we can take it. Tell us what you have and we’ll make an offer on the equipment you’re ready to move.

What kinds of machines does Key Parts buy?

We buy construction and mining equipment, including excavators, dozers, wheel loaders, articulated trucks, and more, from Caterpillar, Komatsu, Volvo, and most other major brands. Running or not, we’ll look at it.

Does the machine have to be running?

No. We buy both running and non-running machines. Blown engines, bad hydraulics, and major damage are all fine. We’re buying it for the components.

How do you decide what to offer?

We evaluate the machine based on the value of its salvageable parts, not its weight as scrap. The condition and demand for components like the final drive, transmission, hydraulics, and undercarriage determine the offer.

How fast can I get an offer?

Fast. Tell us the make, model, year, and condition, and we’ll get back to you with an offer quickly. Call 1-800-323-5397 or use our contact page to get started.

Do you buy just one machine, or only fleets?

Both. We’ll make an offer on a single machine or a whole fleet, whatever you’re looking to sell.

What happens after I accept an offer?

We handle the details from there, including arranging pickup of the machine. You get paid, and we take it from your yard.
