Used Farm Equipment You Can Sell At Auction: Hay Equipment

Hay equipment is vital to the success of the industry. There are many types of this equipment available at auction. This is helpful for growers who need new machines, but may not be able to purchase them new. Here are some of the most popular pieces of equipment you can sell at a used farm equipment auction to meet that need.

Hay baling equipment

Large round balers are popular machines at auction, especially if they have desirable features like silage-special gears or crop-cutters. Older machines often have these features, so if they are in good shape, there may be a bidding war for them at these events. This is great for you if you want to sell your older farm equipment for the highest price.

Small hay growing equipment

A lot of farm equipment is large because it is made for commercial purposes. This is fine for large operations, but for smaller hay farms, smaller equipment is a necessity. If you have used hay equipment that is in good condition, but you have outgrown it, consider selling it at auction.

Older hay equipment

New equipment sells well at auctions, online, and in most other avenues. But, older equipment is ideal for auctions. Many farmers are looking for used equipment specifically because it is more affordable. As long as your equipment is in good working order, you should be able to successfully sell it at one of these events.

Tips for selling your used hay equipment
