The website brings the two parties together. After calling the owner you agree the price, any test dig and the pickup, then you pay the seller. Buyers do not pay the site anything.
Earthmoving firms preparing pads for fabs and warehouses in the West Valley run large crawlers. Utility and landscape contractors in Mesa and Scottsdale prefer minis and mid-size machines. Pool builders and small excavation shops buy compact equipment and often resell as their needs change.
Compact excavators suit tight yards and pool digs. Mid-size crawlers are the default for footings and ditches. Large machines move bulk earth on commercial pads. Wheeled models drive between nearby sites, and long-reach versions clean out drainage channels.
If caliche is common where you work, make sure the machine has hydraulic lines for a breaker and a coupler for quick changes. Choose buckets by soil, from a wide cleanup bucket to a toothed ditching one, and consider a ripper tooth for the hardpan. Operating weight should match your typical job: heavier units cost more to move and need bigger trailers.
Compare the hours with wear on pins, bushings, teeth and track links. Look for leaks around cylinders and cracks at the boom foot, and test the swing bearing for play. Dust from desert work packs into radiators and filters, so inspect them. Request the service records, then watch the bucket cut. If the work is only for one project, consider excavator rental in Phoenix first.
