You'll find a wide range of used cranes online. Bookmark a few sites (see links) and keep your eye on the inventory. Just looking at what's available day by day will give you a good sense of what the market is for used cranes, and the particular crane you're interested in.

  1. Assess your needs first. Once you start looking, you're going to see some bells and whistles that will seem like you can't do without. Before you look at any used cranes, figure out exactly what qualities you do -- and don't -- need in your used crane.

  2. Establish a budget. Although at first you'll want to look around so as to understand the market for used cranes, establish a budget early on and keep that budget number in the back of your mind so as to prevent heartache later.

  3. Get the specs. Fortunately online sites for used cranes tend to have fairly detailed information. You'll want to know the model of the used crane, how old the used crane is and approximately how many hours it has worked.

  4. Find out what's new. Let's face it. A used crane has been around the construction yard a few times. But that doesn't mean that once some important parts are replaced, it can't work like new. You can expect that certain parts will have been replaced -- find out which ones.

  5. Get the paperwork. Find out how many miles have been driven on the new parts, and ask for the paperwork. Ask about the crane's maintenance history and the records to back it up. The more your seller can verify with paperwork, the more assured you'll be that the crane is in good working order. A savvy seller knows you'll want paperwork and will have his ready to send.
