What Hitachi Machinery Do We Buy?

Hitachi construction machinery is widely used across groundworks, construction, demolition, civil engineering, utilities, quarrying and plant hire. We consider a broad range of machines, including:

Hitachi tracked excavators
Hitachi mini excavators
Hitachi midi excavators
Hitachi wheeled excavators
Hitachi ZAXIS / ZX excavators
Hitachi wheel loaders
Hitachi ZW loaders
Earthmoving and demolition machinery
High-hour and ex-fleet Hitachi equipment

Sell Hitachi ZAXIS & ZX Excavators

Hitachi's ZAXIS excavator range is widely used throughout the construction and earthmoving industries. You may also see these machines referred to by their ZX model designation.

We consider compact machines through to larger tracked excavators used for heavy groundworks, demolition and civil engineering.

Useful information when requesting a valuation includes:

Exact ZX model
Year of manufacture
Recorded operating hours
Undercarriage condition
Boom and dipper condition
Hydraulic performance
Bucket and attachment specification
Any known engine, hydraulic or electrical faults

If you are selling several excavators or mixed brands, see our excavator and digger buyers page.

Sell Hitachi Mini & Midi Excavators

Compact Hitachi excavators are commonly used by landscapers, utility contractors, groundworkers, builders and plant hire businesses.

We consider mini and midi excavators with varying hours and specifications, including machines that have spent years in hire fleets or regular site work.

Useful details include:

Machine weight class
Operating hours
Track condition
Blade condition
Boom and dipper wear
Quick hitch type
Buckets and attachments supplied
Known hydraulic or mechanical faults

Sell Hitachi Wheeled Excavators

Hitachi wheeled excavators are often used for highways, utilities, roadworks and urban construction where mobility between working areas is important.

When requesting a valuation, tell us about:

Tyre condition
Operating hours
Blade or stabiliser configuration
Hydraulic condition
Boom and attachment specification
Road-going equipment where fitted

Sell Hitachi ZW Wheel Loaders

Hitachi ZW wheel loaders are used in quarries, recycling facilities, aggregate yards, construction sites and industrial operations.

We consider older and high-hour loaders as well as later machines.

Useful valuation details include:

Exact ZW model
Operating hours
Tyre condition
Bucket condition
Centre articulation wear
Transmission condition
Hydraulic condition
Attachments included

For mixed loader fleets, see our wheel loader buyers page.

Hitachi Model Numbers & Machine Identification

The exact model designation is useful when identifying Hitachi machinery.

Many Hitachi excavators use the ZX designation, while wheel loaders commonly use ZW model numbers.

If decals are worn or the exact model is unclear, send a photograph of the machine identification plate along with the model markings and serial number where available.

This can be particularly useful on older machinery, imported equipment or machines that have been repainted during their working life.

Undercarriage Condition on Hitachi Excavators

On tracked Hitachi excavators, undercarriage condition can be an important part of the overall assessment.

Useful details include the condition of:

Tracks
Track chains
Sprockets
Rollers
Idlers
Track tension

Photographs of both sides of the undercarriage can be particularly useful when selling older or high-hour excavators.

Boom, Dipper, Pins & Bushes

Used excavators naturally develop wear in working joints over time, particularly machines that have spent years in demolition, quarry, plant hire or heavy groundworks.

When describing your Hitachi excavator, tell us if you are aware of:

Excessive play in pins and bushes
Boom or dipper repairs
Hydraulic ram leaks
Quick-hitch wear
Bucket linkage wear
Cracks or previous welding repairs

Honest information about working wear helps us assess the machine more accurately.

Hitachi Attachments & Buckets

Attachments supplied with the machine can form an important part of the overall plant package.

Tell us if the Hitachi includes:

Digging buckets
Grading buckets
Hydraulic breakers
Quick hitches
Selector grabs
Demolition grabs
Tilting buckets
Rippers
Other specialist attachments

If several attachments are included, send photographs and details of their condition where possible.

What Work Has the Hitachi Machine Been Used For?

Previous application can provide useful context when assessing used plant machinery.

Hitachi equipment may have been used for:

General construction
Groundworks
Demolition
Utilities
Road construction
Quarrying
Recycling
Bulk earthmoving
Civil engineering

Machines working in different environments can experience different types of wear, so tell us how the equipment has typically been used.

Sell Older or High-Hour Hitachi Machinery

Hitachi machinery can remain in commercial service for many years, and high operating hours do not automatically prevent us from considering a machine.

We can assess equipment with:

High operating hours
Engine faults
Hydraulic problems
Travel motor faults
Undercarriage wear
Worn pins and bushes
Cab or body damage
Machines that have been parked up
Non-running condition

For machinery in this condition, see our old, high-hour and non-running machinery buyers page.

Ex-Plant Hire, Demolition & Contractor Hitachi Machinery

We buy Hitachi machinery from businesses replacing or reducing their working fleets.

This may include equipment from:

Plant hire companies
Groundworks contractors
Civil engineering firms
Demolition contractors
Quarry operators
Recycling businesses
Utility contractors
Construction companies

High hours and visible working wear do not automatically rule out a machine. Specification, maintenance, overall condition and market demand all matter.

Sell Several Hitachi Machines or a Complete Plant Fleet

If you are upgrading machinery, reducing a hire fleet, clearing a site or disposing of surplus equipment, we can consider several Hitachi machines together.

For larger disposals, send a list showing:

Make and model
Year
Operating hours
Machine condition
Attachments included
Current location
Photographs where available

See our company fleet and bulk equipment buying service for larger disposals involving plant, trucks, vans or mixed commercial assets.

What Affects the Value of Used Hitachi Machinery?

A Hitachi machine cannot be valued on age alone. Factors that may influence the valuation include:

Exact model and specification
Year of manufacture
Recorded operating hours
Engine condition
Hydraulic performance
Undercarriage or tyre condition
Boom and dipper condition
Pins and bushes
Cab condition
Attachments supplied
Service and maintenance history
Previous working application
Current market demand

For more information, see our truck and plant valuation guide.

What Information Should I Send?

Providing accurate details helps us understand exactly what Hitachi machinery you are selling.

Hitachi model
Year of manufacture
Operating hours
Serial number where available
Machine specification
Known faults
Undercarriage or tyre condition
Attachments included
Service history where available
Current location
Clear photographs from several angles

Photographs of the cab, hour meter, tracks or tyres, boom, identification plate and attachments can all help with the assessment.
