Is a used 20-ton excavator in stock right now?
Availability of a used 20-ton excavator changes daily because ExcaYard sources, inspects, and ships pre-owned machines continuously from China. We do not publish live stock numbers, but we can confirm current options for your preferred brand and model within hours. Contact us on WhatsApp +86 193 9277 7259 with your target machine, and we will send you available units that meet your requirements.
How to Confirm Current Stock
Because inventory moves quickly, the most reliable way to check availability is to contact our export desk directly. Provide the brand, model, and any specific requirements such as year, working hours, or attachments. We will then share machines that are either in our yard or available through our vetted supplier network. You can also browse our current machine listings for an overview, but note that not all units are listed online at all times.
Machine Condition and the 150-Point Inspection
Every used excavator we offer undergoes a rigorous 150-point pre-shipment inspection. This covers all major systems: engine, hydraulics, undercarriage, electrical, and structural components. We verify working hours and use paint-thickness checks to detect any prior repairs or repainting. You receive a detailed report with photos and video, so you know exactly what you are buying before you commit. For a sample of our inspection documentation, see our inspection report page.
Documents and Certifications
ExcaYard handles all export certifications required for your destination country. We routinely process SONCAP for Nigeria, SABER for Saudi Arabia, PVoC for Kenya, Tanzania, and Ghana, GSA for Ghana, and KEBS for Kenya. We also provide a complete set of shipping documents: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin. These are prepared accurately to ensure smooth customs clearance at your port.
Payment Terms
We accept T/T USD wire transfers, L/C through Bank of China, and Wise. Our standard terms are 30% deposit upon order confirmation, with the balance due before shipment. For L/C, we work with your bank to ensure compliance with all terms. All payment details are provided in your proforma invoice.
Shipping Methods and Lead Time
We ship from major Chinese ports: Shanghai, Ningbo, Qingdao, and Tianjin. You can choose FOB or CIF terms. For 20-ton excavators, we typically use RoRo (roll-on/roll-off), container, or flat-rack shipping, depending on the machine's dimensions and your preference. The indicative CIF lead time is 28-45 days port-to-port, subject to vessel schedules and destination port congestion. The table below summarizes key shipping factors.
| Shipping Method | Typical Use Case | Indicative Transit Time | Cost Factors |
|---|---|---|---|
| RoRo | Wheeled or tracked machines that can be driven on/off | 28-45 days | Port charges, vessel space, insurance |
| Container | Smaller excavators that fit in a 40ft container | 30-50 days | Container size, loading, inland transport |
| Flat-rack | Oversized or non-drivable machines | 30-50 days | Special equipment, securing, port handling |
| Breakbulk | Multiple units or very large machines | 35-55 days | Vessel type, stowage, heavy-lift fees |
Note that transit times are indicative and can vary based on route, season, and carrier. We provide a precise schedule once your order is confirmed.
