Industrial Equipment

Industrial equipment includes heavy-duty building equipment used for commercial and industrial construction.

Consider posting to industry online marketplaces, sell it back to the distributor or manufacturer, donate it, find an equipment broker, auction it, or if too broken to repair, recycle it.
