Dig Deeper. Spend Less.
CraterMaxx Equipment specializes in factory-direct compact excavators and skid steers shipped from US-based inventory. Founded in Alameda, California in 2021, we serve contractors, landscapers, farmers, and property owners across the country who want professional-grade machines without the dealer premium.
The compact equipment market in the US was built around a dealer network that added margin at every step — distributor, regional rep, showroom, financing. By the time a machine reached a contractor's hands, it was priced 30–50% above its real cost. We changed that.
We work directly with manufacturers, maintain our own US warehouse inventory, and ship to contractors with no dealer layer. The savings go to you — along with a level of post-sale technical support that dealerships rarely provide.
No dealer, no distributor, no showroom. You pay the factory price plus our margin — and you know exactly what that margin is.
Up to 36 months on select models. We back our machines and stand behind them with a technical team that actually knows the equipment.
Our team includes engineers with hands-on compact equipment experience. When you call with a technical question, you get a real answer.
US warehouse inventory means 1–2 day dispatch — not a 6-month factory order. Your machine is ready when your job needs it.
Our equipment specialists are available by phone Monday–Friday, 8am–6pm CT — and by email any time.
