Reasons To Buy Used Doosan® Equipment

Are you debating about how much to spend on construction equipment for your new project? Construction equipment isn’t cheap ─ you’ve got to work it into your budget beforehand or else watch your finances spiral out of control.

Doosan® Equipment is a reliable brand, so you can purchase their machines confidently. However, should you buy a new or a pre-owned Doosan machine? New ones have advantages like the latest features and a shiny exterior. That doesn’t mean used machines don’t have their perks, which are listed below in this guide by Synergy Equipment.

Reduces Total Cost of Ownership

The total cost of ownership (TCO) includes not only the amount you spend on something up front, but also how much it costs you to operate and maintain. In the long run, the TCO of a product is always higher than its retail price. Since used Doosan® equipment will cost less than new machines, buying used automatically reduces your TCO. Used machines in good shape are way better for your budget than new equipment.

Operator/Technician Ease

One great thing about new machines is their updated technology and enhanced features. However, these will be new for most operators. They’ll need to be trained to handle these heavy machines, which can cut into both overall productivity and your budget. This also applies to service technicians, who are more familiar with older models, not newer ones. Again, investing in used Doosan® equipment might save you time and expense.

Higher Resale Value

If you buy pre-owned Doosan equipment, you’ll save money by spending less than you would on a new machine. It’s already taken the biggest hit to its value that it can take, since the biggest dip happens within the first few years. This means your resale value is going to be a lot closer to what you spent on it, especially if you took care to maintain it. For even better resale prices, keep a record of all servicing and repair work done on the machine.

Wiser Use Of Resources

With technology rapidly evolving, it doesn’t take long for a new machine to become outdated. If you spend money on new construction equipment, it will cost more and become outdated soon enough. You’ve blown all your money on a machine that’s not as productive as the competition, so you can’t upgrade. Because of this, it’s better to buy used Doosan® equipment for one project, resell it, then buy another used but more current model for your next project.

Service & Warranty Contracts

Reliable dealerships want you to be a satisfied customer. Therefore, they usually offer you a service contract with routine maintenance. You can also inquire about any warranty options you have for your pre-owned Doosan® equipment. Here at Synergy Equipment, we take pride in the service and support that we offer our clients. Just ask us about your options and our team of dependable expert technicians will be there to help.

More CSR Value

Construction equipment is bulky and complex ─ not something that is easy to engineer and build. By purchasing used Doosan® equipment, you are actually lessening your carbon footprint in the world. You automatically reduce the amount of industrial waste you produce, giving you more green points. This raises your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) profile.
