Question 1

Do you finance equipment directly?

Accepted Answer

No. Cactus does not self-finance, but we work with established contacts in the equipment finance market and can connect you with lenders who fund used construction equipment. Most buyers get an answer quickly.

Question 2

Do you offer rent-to-own?

Accepted Answer

Occasionally, yes. We run Rent-to-Own (RPO) programs on select machines, typically over a 3 to 6 month term. Ask about RPO on the specific unit you're considering.

Question 3

Can you find a machine that isn't in your inventory?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sourcing is a core part of what we do. Tell us the machine, configuration, hour range, and budget, and we'll work our network of lessors, contractors, and dealers to find it.

Question 4

Do you take consignment equipment?

Accepted Answer

We do. If you're upgrading or liquidating, we can market your equipment to buyers across the Western United States and handle the sale process on your behalf.

Question 5

How do you handle shipping and delivery?

Accepted Answer

Equipment ships regionally throughout Utah and the Western United States. We coordinate transport with trusted haulers and can quote freight to your job site or yard.

Question 6

Can I inspect a machine before buying?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We encourage inspections. We'll share photos, hours, and available service history, and you're welcome to arrange your own third-party inspection.

Question 7

Is Cactus a Caterpillar dealer?

Accepted Answer

No. Cactus is an independent broker and reseller that specializes in late-model, lower-hour Caterpillar equipment. We are not an authorized factory dealer, and we also handle non-Cat and consignment machines.
