Sell Your Surplus Machinery

If you’re considering selling your machinery, ensuring you get the most value out of the transaction is important. Here are some recommendations to help you navigate the process effectively:

Knowing When to Sell

Metalworking machinery often transitions from active daily use to idle storage as production needs evolve. Identifying the right time to sell is paramount. Holding onto unused machinery for extended periods can lead to decreased value and unnecessary space occupation. When your equipment starts to become more of a burden than an asset, it’s time to consider selling.

Leveraging Our Resources

At Universal, we maintain an updated mailing list comprising thousands of tube & pipe producers, rollforming manufacturers, steel processors, and used equipment dealers worldwide. This extensive network allows us to facilitate the sale of your surplus equipment quickly and at a fair price.

Options for Selling Your Machinery

1. Immediate Cash Buy: Simply send us pictures and details of your tube mill, rollformer, or other machinery to [email protected]. Upon assessment and acceptance, you’ll receive payment before removal.

2. Auction Sale: If you’re closing a production plant with tube, pipe, and rollform machinery, we can help liquidate your assets efficiently. With our global reach and customer database, we ensure fast sales at competitive prices.

3. Consignment: Opt for consignment to maximize the sale value of your equipment. You can either keep the machinery at your facility or ship it to our warehouse, where we’ll handle cleaning, painting, and showcasing to potential buyers on your behalf.

4. Trade: Explore the possibility of trading your unused machinery for equipment that meets your current needs. Contact us to discuss potential trade-in options.

5. Upgrading: Consider retrofit repower packages to bring your surplus machinery back into operation. We provide quotes for complete or partial upgrades tailored to your application and budget.

Selling machinery doesn’t have to be a daunting task. With the right approach and assistance from Universal, you can maximize the value of your equipment while streamlining the selling process. Contact us today to learn more about our services and how we can help you achieve your selling goals.
