Recycling Equipment Appraisals

The industrial machinery marketplace has seen a dramatic decrease in transactions during the past eight months. As in most markets, a decrease in transactions makes pricing assets more difficult and the fair market value of assets more volatile.

What is the value of a ferrous metal baler or guillotine shear when there are no recent comparable sales to consult? Many professional appraisers face the difficult task of answering these questions today, which explains the big increase Alan Ross Machinery has seen in requests for scrap processing and recycling equipment valuations.

We're able to provide values in this market because:

  • We maintain a historical database of more than 15000 assets and prices through all types of economic events.
  • We're actively engaged in the market for these assets buying, selling and tracking market prices.
  • We have the largest network of potential customers for price discovery.

Many banks, leasing companies and even other appraisers recognize the importance of market expertise in this environment, and the added value Alan Ross Machinery brings to bear in equipment appraisals.
