Used Excavators – Frequently Asked Questions

Are your used excavators fully inspected?

All used excavators are advertised in their working condition, often referred to as “working clothes”, so nothing is hidden. Once a machine is sold, we carry out a PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection) prior to delivery unless the customer chooses to purchase the machine on an “as-is” basis. This is most commonly requested by trade customers or for export purchases.

What does a PDI inspection include?

Our PDI process is tailored to each individual machine and the customer’s requirements. This usually includes a full inspection to ensure the excavator is safe to operate and ready for delivery. However, every used excavator and deal is different, so we always recommend speaking with your salesperson to discuss the most suitable PDI options for your needs. Our used excavator specialists are here to help.

Do you supply attachments or additional equipment?

Iron and Earth can supply a wide range of attachments and equipment including buckets, quick hitches, tilt rotators, and additional hydraulics. Availability and pricing depend on the machine and customer requirements.

Do you deliver used excavators across the UK?

We offer UK-wide delivery on all used excavators. Our team can arrange transport to site, business premises, or port depending on your requirements.

Can you export used excavators overseas?

Yes, Iron and Earth regularly exports used excavators worldwide. We can arrange shipping to Ireland, across Europe, and to most international destinations. Our in-house used excavator specialists can also manage the required export documentation, helping to make the process as straightforward as possible.
