Buying The Right Agricultural & Power Equipment

Agricultural and power equipment is vital to numerous industries, but especially agriculture and construction. Making sure you get the right equipment is vital to getting the job done right. We here at Haney Equipment want to help you get the most out of your tools, so we’ve put together a couple of tips for buying the right heavy equipment, below.

Specific Needs

Naturally, you should start by considering the exact job or jobs you need to be done. Some equipment can perform multiple jobs, so you might luck out and find yourself a multitool. However, even if each piece of equipment does one job, you want to make sure you get something designed to do it in the specific way you need. For instance, a backhoe and excavator might do the same action, but at different scales.

Budget Constraints

Next, set up a firm budget, taking into account maintenance, fuel, accessories, etc. Consider how much you can afford to pay upfront and on a monthly basis. Having a firm number in mind before you start your hunt can help you avoid getting too attached to the equipment you can’t afford right now.

Storage Capacity

This might also need to be part of your budget calculation. If you don’t have handy on-site storage, you may need to rent storage space elsewhere. You don’t want to leave your equipment exposed to the elements, or within reach of potential thieves.
