Hours, attachments and serials, as real fields.
Used equipment sells on condition and numbers. The listing has to carry them and the filters have to use them, or a buyer cannot narrow your yard down to the two machines they want.
Live multi-lot operations
M&K Sales carries equipment, trailers and the occasional hot rod, and their staff runs the catalog themselves. Their inventory also shares a live database with a trailer dealer in another state, so units move between lots without being re-keyed.
If you run more than one yard, cross-lot machine transfers decide whether your software saves time or creates duplicate inventory headaches.
Everything the platform doesWhat an equipment listing has to carry
Dedicated machine specifications that contractors filter by before calling your yard.
Prominent meter hours
Machine hours are the primary metric used-equipment buyers evaluate. Hours appear prominently in search filters, catalog snippets, and spec tables.
Attachments are inventory too
Buckets, thumbs, forks, and augers can be listed as standalone units or paired with specific machines so buyers see total package pricing.
Dedicated serial number tracking
Equipment PINs and serial numbers are dedicated data fields that power service histories, warranty verification, and lien searches.
Filters contractors rely on
Machine class, make, year, metered hours, and operating weight. Contractors find matching equipment in seconds rather than scrolling through unrelated machines.
On-site machine photography
Photograph the machine, hour meter, and undercarriage wear directly on the yard and upload straight from a smartphone for immediate publishing.
Multi-yard machine transfers
Moving equipment between yard locations updates the existing record immediately, avoiding duplicate listings and out-of-sync lot counts.

6 QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about equipment tracking, machine hours, and managing used inventory.
ASK SOMETHING ELSE01How does serial number tracking work for heavy equipment without standard VINs?
Heavy machinery uses manufacturer Product Identification Numbers (PINs) or serial numbers rather than road-vehicle VINs, so there is no public registry like NHTSA to decode them. The admin provides dedicated serial number fields for tracking, while the listing assistant drafts specs, attachments, and model details from equipment photos and staff input.
02Can buyers filter equipment by auxiliary hydraulics, operating weight, and horsepower?
Yes. Auxiliary hydraulic flow (standard vs high flow), operating weight, engine horsepower, and rated operating capacity (ROC) are dedicated spec rows. Buyers can filter inventory by machine class and hydraulic capabilities to verify whether a machine can run their attachments before contacting the dealership.
03Are wheeled skid steers and compact track loaders (CTLs) separated into distinct categories?
Yes. Wheeled skid steers and track loaders are organized as separate machine types with dedicated search filters. This ensures tire specifications apply to wheeled machines and track width or undercarriage condition apply to tracked machines, keeping spec sheets accurate across different machine classes.
04Can we list attachments separately and show mounting specifications?
Yes. Attachments have dedicated listing formats specifying mounting style (such as universal skid steer quick attach or excavator pin dimensions), working width, hydraulic requirements, and operating weight so buyers can confirm fitment directly.
05Can listings display machine hours, remaining undercarriage percentage, and condition?
Yes. Metered machine hours, remaining undercarriage percentage, and service history display prominently in the primary specification table. Presenting hours and wear upfront answers the contractor's first question immediately and ensures search engines index accurate condition data.
06Most of our inventory is acquired from auctions and trades. How fast can we list one-off used units?
One-off used machines can be listed in minutes directly from a smartphone on the yard. Staff can take walkaround photos, let the listing assistant draft descriptions and identify visible features, enter hours and serial numbers, and publish immediately without waiting on manufacturer data feeds.
