Price guides tell you what a machine is worth somewhere in the country. This report tells you what Pennsylvania dealers were actually asking on one day. On November 10, 2026, four PA dealers had 297 used machines listed on Heavy Listing, priced from $7,900 to $690,000. We pulled every listing, cleaned the data and worked out used heavy equipment prices in Pennsylvania by category, make and dealer, plus the auctions on the calendar through the end of December. It is the first edition of a monthly report on the Pennsylvania used equipment market. Every dealer in it is named and linked, so you can go straight to their inventory.
November 2026 at a glance
All figures are asking prices on Heavy Listing as of November 10, 2026. They are not sale prices, and they are not the whole Pennsylvania market: plenty of dealers and machines are not on the site. Read them as a snapshot of one marketplace, updated every month.
| Measure | November 2026 |
|---|---|
| Machines counted | 296 (297 listings, one possible duplicate counted once) |
| Dealers with inventory | 4, with 6 lot locations |
| Categories | 27 |
| Makes | 42 |
| Median asking price | $49,500 |
| Price range | $7,900 to $690,000 |
| Median model year | 2017 (287 machines with a year) |
| Median hours | 3,122 (240 machines with hours) |
| Listings with a visible price | 295 of 296 (99.7%) |
| Auctions on the calendar, Nov 11 to Dec 30 | 16 |
One number deserves a comment: 295 of 296 listings show a price. The only “call for price” listing this month is a drill rig. For a buyer comparing machines from home, that is the difference between a shortlist and a round of phone calls.
Used heavy equipment prices in Pennsylvania by category
Here are the categories with four or more machines. The median is the middle price: half the machines are listed below it, half above, so one $400,000 machine does not drag the number up the way an average would.
| Category | Machines | Median price | Price range | Median year | Median hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Excavators | 52 | $87,000 | $21,500 to $455,000 | 2019 | 5,190 (35 with hours) |
| Compact track loaders | 50 | $37,200 | $22,500 to $78,900 | 2019 | 2,077 |
| Wheel loaders | 35 | $105,900 | $15,900 to $405,500 | 2017 | 4,419 (28) |
| Dozers | 28 | $77,500 | $19,500 to $415,000 | 2013 | 6,063 (23) |
| Skid steers | 22 | $27,000 | $12,500 to $52,900 | 2017 | 1,439 (19) |
| Mini excavators | 15 | $37,500 | $14,500 to $99,400 | 2018 | 2,505 |
| Articulated dump trucks | 13 | $129,500 | $29,900 to $255,000 | 2011 | 9,424 (9) |
| Telehandlers | 10 | $44,200 | $12,500 to $95,500 | 2018 | 3,593 (8) |
| Water trucks | 6 | $60,500 | $26,500 to $195,000 | 1994 | 11,782 (4) |
| Backhoe loaders | 5 | $52,500 | $26,900 to $107,000 | 2017 | 2,573 |
| Site dumpers | 5 | $18,500 | $15,500 to $42,500 | 2017 | 1,189 (3) |
| Tractors | 5 | $28,500 | $23,500 to $34,500 | 2014 | 2,245 (4) |
| Compactors and rollers | 4 | $47,500 | $40,000 to $101,500 | 2017 | 2,566 (2) |
| Mini skid steers | 4 | $24,200 | $15,500 to $27,500 | 2018 | 647 |
| Motor graders | 4 | $62,000 | $18,500 to $157,500 | 1994 | 10,674 |
| Other construction equipment* | 17 | $71,500 | $7,900 to $690,000 | 2007 | 4,882 (8) |
*Scrapers, pipelayers, pavers, trenchers, drill rigs and a milling machine. Median hours and year use only the machines that report them; where fewer machines report hours than are listed, the count is in brackets. The remaining 21 machines are spread over 11 smaller categories, from forestry machines and skidders to boom lifts, cranes and mulchers.
Dozers are the oldest of the big four, with a median model year of 2013, and the list runs from a 1973 Caterpillar D8H to a 2026 Develon DD100 with 26 hours, with a 2022 Caterpillar D6 LGP at $415,000 at the top of the price range. Compact track loaders are the tightest market: all 50 fall between $22,500 and $78,900. And the excavator median of $87,000 covers everything from compact 2010s machines to a 2022 John Deere 670G LC at $455,000, which is why size class matters more than the headline number.
For the full breakdown of each machine type by age, hours, brand and size, see our price guides: used excavator prices, used compact track loader prices, used wheel loader prices, used dozer prices and used skid steer prices.
What each budget buys right now
| Asking price | Machines | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Under $25,000 | 42 | 14% |
| $25,000 to $49,999 | 108 | 37% |
| $50,000 to $99,999 | 72 | 24% |
| $100,000 to $249,999 | 58 | 20% |
| $250,000 and up | 15 | 5% |
Half the inventory is under $50,000, and compact equipment is the biggest group in that half: 39 track loaders, 21 skid steers and 12 mini excavators, alongside older dozers, wheel loaders and telehandlers. Above $100,000 the mix flips to full-size excavators, wheel loaders, articulated trucks and late-model forestry machines. Under $25,000 the biggest group is skid steers (10 of 42), plus older track loaders, mini excavators, site dumpers and smaller pieces like a 2015 Kubota RTV-X900 utility vehicle at $8,500.
How old is the inventory, and how many hours?
| Model year | Machines |
|---|---|
| 2022 and newer | 56 |
| 2018 to 2021 | 76 |
| 2010 to 2017 | 86 |
| 2000 to 2009 | 38 |
| Before 2000 | 31 |
| No year listed | 9 |
The spread is wide on purpose: Pennsylvania buyers range from a landscaper who needs a late-model track loader to a quarry or pipeline contractor who wants a 1990s haul truck at a fraction of new cost. The oldest machine listed is a 1971 Caterpillar 583H pipelayer; the newest is a 2026 Develon DD100 dozer with 26 hours at Kurtz Trading, and nine more listings are 2025 models.
Median hours of 3,122 tell you little on their own, because a compact loader and an articulated truck wear at different rates. Our study of how many hours is a lot on heavy equipment breaks this down by machine type. As a rule, compare hours per year of age, not the raw meter reading.
Top makes on the site this month
| Make | Machines | Median price | Most common categories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Caterpillar | 94 | $74,200 | Excavators, wheel loaders, dozers |
| John Deere | 68 | $87,400 | Wheel loaders, excavators, dozers |
| Bobcat | 41 | $34,500 | Track loaders, skid steers, mini excavators |
| Case | 13 | $34,500 | Track loaders, skid steers, excavators |
| Kubota | 12 | $36,000 | Track loaders, mini excavators |
| Takeuchi | 8 | $33,400 | Track loaders |
| JCB | 5 | $54,900 | Track loaders, telehandlers |
| Volvo | 5 | $59,500 | Articulated trucks and others |
Caterpillar and John Deere together are 162 of the 296 machines. A make’s median follows what it builds: Bobcat, Kubota and Takeuchi medians sit in the $30,000s because nearly all their listings are compact machines, not because the brands are cheaper. Compare brands inside one category, never across the whole table.
The dealers in this month’s report
Four Pennsylvania dealers had inventory on Heavy Listing on November 10. Each one stocks a different part of the market, which is useful to know before you call.
| Dealer | Location | Listings | Categories | Median model year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Old Forge Power Equipment | Carbondale (Lackawanna County) | 142 | 16 | 2012 |
| Kurtz Trading | Littlestown (Adams County) | 99 | 20 | 2018 |
| Five Star Equipment | Dunmore, Waterford and Williamsport | 34 | 10 | 2023 |
| Keystone Equipment Sales & Service | New Castle (Lawrence County) | 22 | 5 | 2021 |
Old Forge Power Equipment, Carbondale
The largest inventory on the site and the deepest in big iron: 35 excavators, 23 wheel loaders, 19 dozers and 13 articulated dump trucks, plus less common machines like water trucks, motor graders, scrapers and pipelayers. 81 of its 142 machines are Caterpillar. At the top of its range is a 2022 Caterpillar D6 LGP with 1,700 hours at $415,000; at the other end are 1990s haul trucks and loaders priced as working machines.
Kurtz Trading, Littlestown
The widest spread of categories, 20 in all, with a focus on compact equipment: 34 compact track loaders, 12 skid steers and 11 mini excavators, plus tractors, mulchers, site dumpers and boom lifts. Mostly Bobcat, John Deere, Kubota and Caterpillar, with a median model year of 2018. A typical listing: a 2021 Bobcat T770 with 1,694 hours at $49,500. Kurtz is in South Central PA, covered in our Harrisburg and York used equipment guide, and also runs its own auctions (see the calendar below).
Five Star Equipment, Dunmore, Waterford and Williamsport
The newest fleet in the report: 25 of the 33 machines we counted are 2022 or newer, with median hours of 934. Almost all John Deere, across excavators, wheel loaders and mini excavators, plus Deere forestry machines and two 2024 Bomag paving and milling machines. One example: a 2023 John Deere 210G excavator with 1,258 hours at $142,000 at the Waterford branch. Three branches mean pickup can happen in northeast, northwest or north central PA.
Keystone Equipment Sales & Service, New Castle
A focused inventory of compact machines in western PA: 16 of its 22 listings are compact track loaders, mostly late-model Bobcat, Takeuchi and JCB, with a median model year of 2021 and median hours of 1,300. Example: a 2022 Bobcat T770 with 900 hours at $64,900. A good stop for a buyer who wants a low-hour track loader.

How we built this report
We want dealers and buyers to be able to check every number, so here is exactly what we did:
- Source: every used machine published on Heavy Listing on November 10, 2026 (297 listings), and every auction on our calendar. Nothing else: no outside price data, no estimates.
- Asking prices only: what the dealer listed, not what a machine sold for. Final prices are often lower after negotiation.
- Duplicates: two listings with the same model, year, hours and price (a pair of 2025 John Deere 544G wheel loaders) may be two machines, since they carry different stock numbers. To be safe we counted them once, which is why the analysis uses 296 machines and the dealer table shows 297 listings.
- Placeholder prices: we looked for $0 and $1 prices and found none apart from the one “call for price” listing, which is left out of all price figures.
- Hours: 240 of the 296 machines report hours. Early in November an import error on our side put stock numbers in the hours field of some listings; it was fixed on November 9. We re-checked every reading above 30,000 hours. There was one, a Euclid R35 haul truck at 39,904 hours, and it matches the dealer’s own listing, so it stays.
- Medians, not averages: a handful of $400,000+ machines would pull an average far above what most buyers see.
How to use these numbers
For buyers, the category table is a starting point for a budget, not a price for a specific machine. Two excavators with the same median can be $100,000 apart once you account for size, hours and condition. Find the right price guide, narrow it to your size class, then compare actual listings.
Example (illustrative, not a specific machine):
❌ Wrong: “The median wheel loader is $105,900, so this $75,000 loader is a bargain.”
✅ Right: “Wheel loaders range from $15,900 to $405,500. Let me compare this one with loaders of the same size class, age and hours before I decide what it is worth.”
For dealers, the report shows where your inventory sits next to the rest of the site. If most of the track loaders on the market are 2017 to 2021 machines and yours is a 2023, that is a selling point to put in the listing. If you are a private owner, our guide on how to sell used heavy equipment explains when a dealer, a consignment auction or a private sale makes more sense.

This is the first edition, so there is nothing to compare it with yet. From December, we plan to show what changed each month: how many machines were added and removed, whether category medians moved, and which auctions are coming up next. One month of data is a snapshot, and a few months will start to show a trend. If you want to see the current listings in the meantime, browse the full used equipment inventory.
Frequently asked questions
What is the average price of used heavy equipment in Pennsylvania?
We use medians instead of averages. On November 10, 2026, the 296 used machines listed by Pennsylvania dealers on Heavy Listing had a median asking price of $49,500. Among categories with four or more machines, the median ranged from $18,500 for site dumpers to $129,500 for articulated dump trucks.
Are these sale prices?
No. They are asking prices on one marketplace, Heavy Listing, on one day. Machines often sell for less after negotiation, and many Pennsylvania dealers and machines are not on the site.

Old Forge Power Equipment (Carbondale, 142 listings), Kurtz Trading (Littlestown, 99), Five Star Equipment (Dunmore, Waterford and Williamsport, 34) and Keystone Equipment Sales & Service (New Castle, 22).
