Sell Your Used Metal Fabrication Equipment
Idle press brakes and other fabrication machines take up floor space and tie up cash you could put toward newer equipment. When you sell your used metal fabrication equipment to Harris Machine Tools, you recover that value without hunting for buyers or arranging transport.
Our Houston team evaluates your machines, makes a no-obligation offer, and handles rigging and pickup. We buy single machines, full departments, and entire plants from manufacturers, dealers, and plant operators across North America.
A Metal Fabrication Machinery Buyer That Handles the Heavy Lifting
Since 1979, Harris has bought machinery for resale, and our worldwide buyer network puts your equipment in front of shops ready to pay for it. You pick the sale route that fits your timeline:
- Outright Purchase: We buy the machine ourselves, so you skip the wait for a buyer.
- Trade-In Credit: Apply your equipment’s value toward a machine from our used inventory.
- Auction or Consignment: We market your used metal fabrication equipment through our machinery auctions or a consignment sale.
- On-Site or Warehouse: Local sellers can often keep equipment on the shop floor until it sells. Others can move it to one of our two secure warehouses near the Houston Ship Channel, and our storage, shipping, and delivery team coordinates the move.
- Certified Valuation: A certified AMEA appraisal gives you a documented value for financing, insurance, or resale.
We Buy Surplus and New Metal Fabrication Equipment
Plant closures, consolidations, and overbuying leave many shops with surplus metal fabrication equipment. If you need to sell your new metal fabrication equipment, we buy unused machines and market them to our buyer network.
Send us the details through our request a quote form, and our Appraisal Team will return a custom quote.
We also buy CNC machines and welding equipment, so you can sell everything on your floor in one conversation.
Three Steps That Turn Idle Metal Fabrication Equipment Into Cash
Selling takes less preparation than most shops expect. Start with what you already have on hand, and our team takes it from there.
Send The Specs
Send the specs. It all starts with a simple assessment. To sell your surplus metal fabrication equipment, send the make, model, year, machine type, and serial number through our contact page. We may ask for weight, capacity, dimensions, tooling, or power specs, and we tell you exactly what to pull together.
Share Clear Photos
Pictures of the control panel, tooling, nameplate, and any wear show buyers the machine’s condition before they call. We suggest the angles that make your used equipment easiest to sell.
Close The Sale
We handle inspections and paperwork, then you hand off the machine and receive payment. If you need the equipment gone before it sells, we’ll transport it to one of our two secure warehouses near the Houston Ship Channel. Shutting down a whole facility? Our surplus asset disposition and management service covers every machine on the floor.
