There are many different options to choose from when considering how to sell your crane. You can send your crane to auction where you can hope someone gets into a bidding war over it and brings the sale price over what it is worth. Or you might not get so lucky and the crane might not get the type of attention you are hoping for because the right type of buyers didn’t show up and the crane does not sell for what you expected. Typically auctions that sell your crane for you will charge a percentage of the sale. This commission usually ranges between 10%-15% of the purchase price. Auctions are the guaranteed method of selling your crane but not the guaranteed way of getting your desired price.

Another way is to bring the crane to a crane dealer or a crane broker. This way you can expect to pay a fee for the services for selling your used crane. Many dealers charge a percentage of the sale price and some will just charge you a set fee. This process can expose your crane to many customers walking through their dealerships, and also exposes your crane for sale to customers getting service work done on their cranes to possibly replace their equipment with more suitable equipment like yours. This process usually requires the seller of the crane to deliver the crane to the dealer and loose the use of the machine. If you have a boom truck for sale, an all terrain crane for sale, or a truck crane for sale this may not be too much of a problem. On the other hand if your trying to sell a crawler crane or a rough terrain crane for sale you need to factor in the cost of the trucking.

Crane brokers who sell your crane are also a common method for equipment liquidation.

Which can make the sale of your crane fast and virtually headache free, with an added benefit of continuing to allow you to use your crane while it is being marketed and sold. These brokers usually do all of the leg work for you by listing your crane on websites like cranenetwork.com, cranehotline.com, craneweb.com, machienerytrader.com, machieneryzone.com, maximcrane.com, and biggie.com the crane broker will take all of the phone calls and answer all of the questions the buyers may have. Selling your crane through a crane broker is often a good route if you have a tower crane for sale or a bridge crane for sale. since these can be difficult to disassemble and transport to a crane dealer.
