Heavy Equipment-specific legal information
Transfer notes
Heavy equipment (excavators, bulldozers, loaders, etc.) transfers rely on a bill of sale and serial number documentation. Most states do not title heavy equipment that is not driven on public roads.
Odometer disclosure
Heavy equipment is exempt from federal odometer disclosure. Engine hours are the primary usage metric. Hour meter readings should be recorded on the bill of sale.
Title and registration
Heavy equipment is generally not titled by states. A bill of sale is the primary transfer document. Equipment with a road-travel capability (e.g., motor graders) may require registration in some states.
Special disclosures
- Serial number and Product Identification Number (PIN) should be documented — heavy equipment is frequently financed, and lien verification is essential.
- Emission tier compliance (Tier 4 Final, Tier 3, etc.) affects legal operation in some states and on federal job sites.
- Undercarriage condition (for tracked equipment) represents a major cost item and should be disclosed as a percentage of remaining life.
