“Making money with old machines”

An equipment fleet consists of many pieces of equipment and machinery. Ever bought new, derived from other fleets through acquisitions or acquisitions of entire companies. All in all a considerable capital. Often well managed and maintained.

This capital is in our opinion, a "hidden treasure" of possibilities. By looking at the fleet with different eyes, we see something other thing then just only machines. If we see it through the eyes of a Remarketing specialist we see a potential for curing an old fleet and thus to rejuvenate. Your customers (internal or external) are indeed also interested to use young and up to date machines. A fleet reorganization, selling old machines, also brings in more money that can be used for reinvestment in equipment, additional profit or to pay for your other investments.

But not just selling your old (intensive care) machinery is  possible. Also machines that have (too) low utilisation, are eligible to sell second hand (disinvestment). Machines with little or no utilisation just costs money. Your machines are older and less valuable so they should be written off without any benefits in return. By selling them you avoid obsolescence and generate cash flow.

Often, you will have in your fleet machines that came in a merger or acquisition. Problem is that there are many different brands of the same type of machines in your fleet. That brings more complexity in your maintenance program and result in higher parts inventory. Restrict the number of brands is the advice. "And the rest?", disinvest, so sell them second-hand and make money!

The finding is that lots of  money can be earned for you as company owner or fleet manager. But it sounds easier than it in fact is. Used equipment sales is specialist work and do it properly can take years and requires experience in market and knowledge of how to develop the sales channels.

That means you need a specialist with expert advice on your fleet plan and  / or divestment plan.
We at Machinery Resale think along in your process of disinvestment of your fleet and make in a success together with you. Years of experience and up to date market knowledge brings you further than any dealer, trader or auctioneer can take you.
