Using Mill Machinery's extensive customer database, MMC markets our client’s machinery to buyers around the world. Our integrated approach is designed to maximize the return on surplus assets. MMC can provide each potential customer with details about the machinery, develop dismantling, reconditioning and transportation quotations (both trucking and container quotes), dismantle the machinery, rebuild the machinery and arrange final shipment. Our scope of service is designed to simplify and shorten the sales cycle and maximize the sales price of the machinery. Our approach is outlined below:

• Appraisal and Consulting Services – MMC will works with clients to better understand market conditions, how they impact pricing and to develop strategies to maximize returns. MMC develops a comprehensive list of major components to be sold and develops pricing for individual machines, machinery centers and the complete mill.
• Removal and Dismantling – MMC has extensive experience in removing and transporting machinery used in the forest products industry. We have moved plants across the world or literally next-door. No one in the industry has dismantled and moved more mill machinery than MMC.
