Undercarriage is where most of the value goes.

Scrap tracked excavators, any size
Excavators that are past repair still carry a lot of value in their tracks, swing and hydraulics. We buy them stripped, seized or burned.

Spec sheet
What still counts on a scrap excavator

| Hydraulics | Main pump, valves and cylinders. |
| Final drives | Travel motors and final drives are often resold. |
| Counterweight | Dense, heavy and always worth something. |
Running and in good shape?
A working excavator is often worth more sold as a machine than for parts. If yours still digs well, we'll tell you, and we can still make an offer if you'd rather not deal with listings.
Selling an excavator that's done
Retired excavators are some of the most common tracked machines we see.
Fire damage
Engine bay fires damage hoses, wiring and the cab. The undercarriage and frame usually survive.
Flooded machines
Machines that sat in floodwater are bought as they are. Water in the hydraulics or engine is expected.
Stripped machines
Machines missing their engine, pump or cab still have frame, track and counterweight value.
Minis
Mini excavators on rubber tracks are quick to haul and have strong parts demand.
Booms stuck up
A dead machine with its boom raised has to be lowered or secured. Tell us its position.
Diesel rules
In Metro Vancouver, excavators with diesel engines of 25 hp or more fall under Bylaw 1329.
Photos that help
Each side at track level, the boom and bucket, the cab and the engine bay. If it's burned or stripped, show what's left so we can see what still has value.
Mini excavator wear
Rubber tracks, swing bearings and pins wear quickly on minis that worked every day. That's normal and still sells.
Attachments
Buckets, thumbs, couplers and breakers can go in the same load. Tell us what comes with it.
After pickup
Track groups, swing parts, pumps and final drives are often resold. Frames, booms and counterweights are recycled.
