What Makes a Quality Used Concrete Pump?

For those in the concrete pumping industry, there is a clear distinction between new high quality concrete pumps and lesser quality pumps.   Quality is an industry wide standard everyone knows the value of.  Luckily, quality isn’t a measure that stops at new pumps, used concrete pumps can be quality too.

A quality pump has similar features to new pumps, most important of which are reliability, performance and versatility.  At Concrete Pump Supply we strive to provide you the best name brand pumps, new or used, ready to perform.

Reliability is a huge indicator of quality.  Your business can’t afford to have pumps breaking, or being repaired.  Lost pumps are lost dollars.  It’s important to find a pump that is well maintained, reliable, with years of high performance work ahead.

Performance is likely something many used concrete pump buyers find themselves face to face with, many times in very negative situations.  Used pumps shouldn’t struggle to run, or perform at a lower level simply because they’ve been used before.  If you’ve purchased a used pump in the past that’s underperformed you know it can be frustrating.  See what pumps we have to offer you and talk to one of our salespeople about the performance of our used pumps.

Lastly, a versatile pump is a quality pump.  Pumps shouldn’t make your job more difficult.  Many times low quality pumps falter on site, or aren’t able to perform the job you have where you need it to perform.  Luckily, used concrete pumps from Putzmeister and Schwing (our most popular used pump lines) are designed to perform under a number of conditions and site environments.

When purchasing a used concrete pump, investigate these areas and you won’t be disappointed.  If you can’t be provided accurate information or the equipment simply looks worn out or under-maintained, look elsewhere.  Used concrete pumps should help your business, not hinder it.  That’s exactly what a quality pump will do for you.
