Who We Help
Contractors and Builders
Machines that have been replaced by newer models, or that are no longer worth keeping on the books.
Landscapers and Excavating Companies
Older mini excavators, skid steers and Bobcats with high hours or worn out undercarriages.
Property Owners and Farms
A machine left behind on a property, often after a project or a sale, that nobody knows what to do with.

Construction Equipment We Buy
| Equipment | Examples |
|---|---|
| Excavators | Mini excavators and larger tracked excavators |
| Skid steers | Wheeled and tracked skid steers, Bobcats |
| Loaders and backhoes | Compact loaders, backhoe loaders |
| Site power | Generators and air compressors |
| Other site machines | Plate compactors, rollers and similar heavy machines |
If it is scrap and we can buy it, send us the details and photos.
Running or Not, It Still Has Value
A machine with a seized engine, worn tracks or broken hydraulics is still a large amount of metal and parts. We buy construction equipment in any condition, including machines that have not started in years. Let us know when you send the details so we plan the right loading equipment.
What Affects the Offer
- Type and size: larger machines carry more weight and value.
- Hours: the hour meter reading shows how hard the machine has worked.
- Running condition: machines that start and move usually get more.
- What is included: buckets and attachments still on the machine are taken into account.
- Tracks and undercarriage: worn or broken tracks lower the value.
- Current metal prices: offers move with the metal market.
- Site access: firm, open ground is quicker than a soft or tight spot.
We set the exact amount only after you share the details.

Construction Equipment Removal FAQ
Do you buy excavators and skid steers that do not run?
Yes. Brighouse Commercial buys excavators, skid steers and Bobcats in any condition, including machines that have not started in years. A non running machine still has value in its metal and parts. Tell us it does not run so we bring the right loading equipment.
How much is my old excavator worth?
It depends on the make, model, size, hours, condition, attachments and current metal prices. Send the data plate details, hour meter reading and photos, and we will give you clear terms before booking.
Is construction equipment removal free?
Most heavy items are picked up with free towing. Depending on the machine’s value, its size and the site, the result is a cash offer, a no cost pickup or, rarely, a removal charge. You always know which one applies before booking.
Can you pick up from an active job site?
Yes. Tell us the site hours, access points and where the machine is parked. We plan the pickup for a time that does not get in the way of your crew.
Do you take attachments and buckets?
Attachments that are on or with the machine are taken into account in the offer. Let us know what is included when you send the details.
Can you buy equipment from an estate?
Yes, when the executor shows legal authority to sell. The machine must have no loan or lien owing.
