Client feedback

Heavy Equipment Appraisals client reviews

  • I recommend AprraiseItNow Inc. highly. I needed appraisal of fair market value for geologic laboratory equipment for charitable donations to three universities. The unique items and limited secondary market complicated valuation. They provided a sound, verifiable estimate and the 8283 forms that I was able to use in my tax filings. I would use them again.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of heavy equipment do you appraise?

We appraise construction and earthmoving equipment, manufacturing machinery, agricultural equipment, cranes and lifting equipment, forklifts and material-handling systems, mining and quarry equipment, and multi-asset industrial inventories. If you're uncertain whether your equipment falls within our scope, contact us with details and we'll confirm.

What is USPAP and why does it matter?

USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice) is the recognized standard for all appraisal work in the United States. Our appraisals are prepared in accordance with USPAP, which ensures your report meets professional standards and is defensible with lenders, insurers, courts, and tax authorities.

Can your appraisals be used for insurance claims and coverage?

Yes. We prepare appraisals suitable for insurance coverage determinations and claims documentation. Our reports provide the fair market value and condition assessment insurers require to process claims and establish coverage limits.

Do you conduct appraisals on-site or remotely?

We perform both on-site and remote appraisals depending on the scope and complexity of your equipment. Larger or specialized equipment typically benefits from on-site inspection. We'll discuss the best approach for your specific assets during the scoping process.

What credentials do your appraisers hold?

Our appraisers collectively hold credentials with leading organizations such as the ASA, CAGA, NEBB (CMEA), and others, and every report is prepared in accordance with USPAP. We assign qualified appraisers based on your equipment type and intended use.

How long does an appraisal take?

Turnaround varies by project scope, asset complexity, and number of items. We confirm timing up front during the scoping call so you know exactly when to expect your report. Expedited service is available for time-sensitive engagements.
