At Apparatus and Equipment Solutions, we take pride in providing accurate, transparent, and fair market appraisals for your emergency apparatus. Our process ensures your department gets the best possible valuation with honesty and professionalism.
1. Initial Consultation
We begin with a short conversation to learn about your truck—make, model, year, mileage, pump capacity, features, and condition. We also discuss your goals, whether you’re selling, trading, or upgrading your fleet.
2. Information Review
You provide key details including:
- Current photos (exterior, interior, compartments, and pump panel)
- Maintenance and pump test records
- Ladder/aerial certifications (if applicable)
- Notes on upgrades, repairs, or custom features
3. Market Research
We compare your unit to similar apparatus recently sold or currently listed nationwide to identify market demand and value trends.
4. Condition & Feature Evaluation
Our team assesses mechanical integrity, mileage, hours, age, and presentation. Unique or high-demand features are factored into your final valuation.
5. Value Determination
We determine an accurate market value range based on:
- Comparable sales data
- Age and usage
- Market demand by region and apparatus type
- Expected resale timeframe
6. Report & Recommendations
You receive a clear appraisal summary with our professional recommendations—including pricing strategy and suggestions to increase value before listing.
7. Optional Listing Service
If you choose, we can list and market your apparatus directly on our website and across our dealer network to reach qualified buyers nationwide.
