China's construction boom built the world's largest fleet of construction machinery — and a deep second-hand market with late-model excavators, loaders, and cranes at 40–70% below new prices. Aurora Trading helps you buy from that market safely: we inspect the actual machine, verify its history, negotiate the price, and manage export and shipping to your country.
We source used excavators (CAT, Komatsu, Hitachi, SANY, XCMG), wheel loaders, bulldozers, motor graders, mobile and tower cranes, concrete pumps and mixers, forklifts, and road machinery. Tell us the make, model range, year, and hour limits you want, and we search dealer networks and auction channels across Guangdong, Shanghai, and Shandong.
Photos from a seller mean little. Our inspectors physically examine each machine: engine start and running test, hydraulic function and cycle times, undercarriage or tyre wear, structural cracks and repaint evidence, hour-meter plausibility, and serial number checks against the claimed year. You receive a video-documented condition report before you commit a single dollar.
Used machinery pricing in China is highly negotiable, and payment terms matter as much as price. We negotiate in Chinese on your behalf, structure deposits to keep leverage until the machine passes final inspection, and act as your local counterparty so you are not wiring money to an unknown dealer.
Used machinery exports need correct HS codes, customs declaration of the machine's year and value, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and — for some destinations — pre-export inspection certificates. We steam-clean machines where biosecurity rules require it (Australia in particular), arrange RoRo, flat rack, or container shipping, and deliver the full document pack for clearance at your port.
We physically inspect and test-run every machine: engine, hydraulics, undercarriage, structure, and hour-meter plausibility, with serial-number verification against the claimed year. You receive a photo and video condition report before paying.
Both international brands (Caterpillar, Komatsu, Hitachi, Volvo) and Chinese brands (SANY, XCMG, Zoomlion, LiuGong) are widely available second-hand, often with late models at significant discounts to new prices.
Dealer warranties are rare, which is why independent pre-purchase inspection is critical. Where possible we negotiate short workshop warranties or hold-backs, and we verify machines thoroughly before release of payment.
