There's a Real Person Behind This.
Not an algorithm. Not a listing aggregator. Someone who's been in this industry long enough to know what equipment is actually worth — and what to walk away from.

The Story
Yard Journal is run by a used equipment specialist with over a decade of experience in the industry. The inventory featured here comes from a major national fleet — well-maintained, documented, and priced to move.
I built this site because buyers deserve better information than they usually get. Pricing is opaque, condition descriptions are vague, and most listing sites exist to generate clicks, not to help you make a smart purchase.
The guides on this site are written from real experience — the same things I'd tell a buyer standing next to a machine on a yard. The listings are real inventory I can speak to directly. And if you reach out, you get a straight answer, not a sales script.
Selling, evaluating, and moving used construction equipment at scale. Not a hobbyist operation.
Equipment that's been maintained on a national maintenance schedule — not mystery machines from unknown sources.
If what I have isn't right for your situation, I'll tell you that. The goal is the right machine, not a commission.
Get in Touch
Have a specific machine in mind? Need to know if something's available or what it should cost? Send a message and I'll get back to you directly — usually same day.
Messages go directly to me, not a ticketing system. Expect a real response, usually same day during business hours.
If something's available, I'll tell you. If it's not right for your application, I'll tell you that too. No runaround.
Both are available on most units. I'll walk you through the options when we talk — nothing complicated.
