We buy used restoration equipment from businesses and individuals looking to upgrade their disaster recovery tools or liquidate assets they no longer need. At First Choice Drying Equipment, we understand that quality restoration gear represents a significant investment. We’re committed to helping you recover value from equipment that still has plenty of life left in it. Whether you’re updating your fleet with newer models or scaling down your operations, our team is ready to offer fair market value for your pre-owned restoration machinery.
Why Selling Your Used Restoration Equipment Makes Sense
Having reliable equipment is a part of every successful restoration business. But what happens when it’s time to upgrade your gear or when you find yourself with a surplus? Letting valuable restoration tools sit idle doesn’t make sense when you could convert them into cash or credit toward new purchases. Many restoration professionals don’t realize the significant residual value their used equipment holds, especially in an industry where quality machinery is always in demand.
In fact, there is a thriving market for pre-owned restoration gear that still performs reliably. By selling your used equipment, you’ll recoup some of your initial investment while extending the lifecycle of your equipment.
How We Buy Used Restoration Equipment at First Choice
At First Choice Drying Equipment, we’ve streamlined the process of selling your used restoration gear to make it as hassle-free as possible. Our team of experts evaluates your equipment based on make, model, age, condition, and market demand to offer you the most competitive prices.
When we buy used restoration equipment, we’ll take you through our straightforward evaluation process. You can send us detailed photos and information about your equipment, or we can arrange an in-person assessment if you’re located within our service regions.
After evaluating your equipment, we’ll provide you with a fair offer based on the current restoration market conditions.
If you accept, we can arrange for payment and pickup or shipping, ensuring a smooth and efficient transaction for you.
Types of Used Restoration Equipment We Purchase
Dehumidifiers and Desiccants
We buy used restoration equipment, including all types of commercial dehumidifiers and desiccants. Whether you have a single unit or a fleet of dehumidifiers, we’ll work with you to determine fair pricing based on each machine’s specific condition and performance capabilities. Even if your equipment needs minor repairs, we may still be interested in purchasing it for refurbishment.
Air Movers and Fans
High-quality air movers are always in demand in the restoration industry, and we frequently purchase used units in good working condition. We buy used restoration equipment from all major manufacturers, including OmniDry, Phoenix, and DriEaz models.
The durability of professional-grade air movers means they often have plenty of useful life remaining even after years of service. If you’re upgrading to newer models or have surplus equipment, converting these assets to cash makes good business sense.
Air Scrubbers and HEPA Systems
Air quality equipment plays a big role in restoration work, and we regularly purchase used air scrubbers, negative air machines, and HEPA filtration systems. Your air quality equipment represents specialized technology that continues to hold value in the restoration marketplace due to its importance in creating safe working environments during restoration projects. When you sell these devices to First Choice, you’re ensuring they’ll find new purpose with restoration professionals who need quality equipment at accessible price points.
Specialty Restoration Equipment
Beyond the core equipment categories, we buy used restoration equipment, including ozone generators, moisture meters, thermal imaging cameras, and wall cavity dryers. The specialized nature of these tools makes them excellent candidates for resale, often retaining significant value even after years of service.
If you’re uncertain whether we’d be interested in purchasing your specialized equipment, just ask! Our extensive experience in the restoration industry enables us to understand the value and applications of a wide range of tools and machines.
Benefits of Selling Your Used Equipment to First Choice
Immediate Cash Recovery
When you sell your used restoration equipment to First Choice, you’ll be getting paid rather than letting valuable assets sit idle in storage.
Quick capital recovery can help fund new equipment purchases or support other areas of your business that require investment. Unlike consignment arrangements that might take months to generate returns, our direct purchase model puts money in your hands right away.
Our straightforward evaluation process ensures you know exactly what your equipment is worth, without hidden fees or complicated payment structures, allowing you to make an informed decision about whether selling makes financial sense for your situation.
Environmentally Responsible Choice
The restoration industry deals with environmental challenges daily, and extending the useful life of equipment aligns perfectly with sustainability goals. By selling your used restoration equipment, you’re making an environmentally conscious choice. We buy used restoration equipment that might otherwise be discarded and give it a second life, reducing the waste and impact associated with manufacturing new machinery.
Your decision to sell used equipment rather than dispose of it contributes to resource conservation and responsible business practices.
Hassle-Free Equipment Removal
When you upgrade your restoration fleet, dealing with the removal of old equipment can become a logistical challenge. By selling to First Choice, you eliminate the hassle of storing, maintaining, or disposing of equipment you no longer need.
When we buy used restoration equipment, we handle all aspects of equipment removal, from disconnection to transportation, saving you time and resources.
