Equipment Values is a free used equipment value reference built on real sales: 116,979 heavy equipment, farm machinery and truck sales at Ritchie Bros., Purple Wave and the Sandhills auctioneers in the 24 months through November 3, 2026, by make, model and year.
Pick the type, make and model of used heavy equipment, truck or tractor, then enter the year and meter hours. The calculator returns the median sold price and the range from closed sales of that model in the last 24 months. The figures are closed sales, not asking prices or dealer list prices, so they show what a used tractor, excavator, skid steer or semi truck actually brings.
Equipment Values covers 22 types of construction equipment, farm equipment and trucks; each page shows the median sold price, the range and the latest sales for that type.
Used semi truck prices were down 0.3% on the month at auction in October 2026, across 3,436 sales.

There is no Kelley Blue Book for heavy equipment: kbb.com values cars, light trucks and motorcycles. The guides that exist are paid subscriptions: J.D. Power's Official Commercial Truck Guide (formerly NADA) for class 2 to 8 trucks and trailers, Iron Solutions' IronGuides for farm tractors and combines, and EquipmentWatch for construction equipment values and rental rates. Equipment Values shows what each make and model actually sold for, free, from 116,979 closed sales in the 24 months through November 3, 2026.
Equipment Values' prices are closed sales in US dollars, read from the auction houses' public results today (Ritchie Bros., Purple Wave and the Sandhills auctioneers), with the house, the date and the place named on every row. Public sale records, such as county sealed-bid sales, and dealer sales are the next sources being added. A sale counts once, and lots that sold several machines for one price are left out.
An equipment appraisal from Equipment Values starts at $295 for a desktop report on one machine. Rhett Crites, CMEA, and his team prepare it to USPAP, the national appraisal standard, for a lender, a court, the IRS or a buyer. On-site and fleet work is quoted.
Every figure comes from closed auction sales in US dollars from the 24 months through November 3, 2026: 116,979 sales counted of 273,768 gathered. Lots that sold several machines for one price, and sales in other currencies, are left out. Sales held outside the United States are left out of every figure; those priced in US dollars are listed with a tag. The median is the middle sale; low and high are the 10th and 90th percentiles.
Price basis for every figure: hammer price, before the buyer's premium; where the source states no hammer (Sandhills auctioneers), the price as published. Each sale is listed at the price the house published, with its basis.

A sold price is what machines like yours brought in real sales: the medians on this site come from 116,979 closed sales of the same makes, models and years. A sold price is evidence for a value, not the value of your own machine.
Your machine's value depends on its own hours or miles, condition and configuration, and on what the value is for. A certified appraisal by Rhett Crites, CMEA, and his team weighs those against closed sales like these, from $295.

A certified equipment appraisal report states each machine's value and the total, who the report is for and what it will be used for, the effective date, how each machine was identified and graded, the sales the values were concluded from, and the appraiser's certificate under USPAP.
Who the report is for, what it will be used for, the kind of value, the effective date and the conclusion, up front in the letter and the summary.
Whether the work was done from records and photos or by inspection on site, and how the condition of each machine was established.
Make, model, year, serial number, hours or miles, attachments and configuration, as far as the records and photos show them.
A condition grade from the report's own definitions and the remaining useful life, machine by machine, with the photos the grade rests on.
Every source consulted and what it was used for, and under each machine, the sales its value was concluded from.
Which approach carried the values and why, the market conditions on the effective date, the exposure time, and each assumption that could change the value if it proved false.
The limiting conditions and the certificate the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) require, with the appraiser's qualifications.
