Home» Used Backhoes

Backhoes are one of the most invaluable pieces of heavy equipment in the construction industry, allowing its operator to quickly move copious amounts of earth and debris with ease.

A backhoe is essentially a tractor that is fitted with a front-mounted shovel, with a rear-mounted backhoe. The frontal shovel is used for pushing or collecting anything from dirt, debris or even snow as it is pushed forward. Alternately, it is used to lift these materials for movement into a dump truck, dumpster or remote location.

The rear-mounted backhoe is a two-part, hydraulic-powered articulated arm designed to reach far distances. Acting much like a "scoop," its bucket enables the operator to easily manipulate earth or materials for movement and clearing. When in use, the operator typically makes the backhoe stationary with the use of retracting stabilizers on each side of the backhoe.

With the cost of new backhoes ranging near 6-figures, it only makes sense for most small to mid-size businesses to consider a used backhoe for a small fraction of that cost. With a high level of reliability, a low-hour used backhoe will perform and last for many years, providing your business with endless hours of labor.
