Toromont Cat Consignment is a quick and hassle-free way to sell your used heavy equipment at the price you have established. As explained in a previous blog post, this is a simpler and more profitable solution than auctioning your Cat or non-Cat tractors, backhoes, excavators, loaders, pavers, and heavy trucks.
There are many benefits to selling your used heavy equipment: you can get money fast, free up space in your yard or inventory, buy new and more efficient equipment, or prepare for your retirement.
Before you decide to list an equipment for sale, we recommend that you speak with a Toromont Cat sales representative to determine whether another option, such as trade-in or direct selling, is better suited to your needs.
“I think the consignment program is a great solution for customers. Sometimes, they simply don’t need the equipment at the moment but rather make space in their yard. And that’s where I say: Why don’t I help you sell the machines? The consignment option allows us to help our customers do just that.”
- Ward Mitchell, Key Accounts Sales Representative] at Toromont Cat.
“The process is simple and short for the customer. He decides to do consignment, sets the price and the reps go out to sell his machine.”
- Paul Gavin, Used Equipment Manager ECAN
