If you aren't receiving many results, try limiting your search terms to a make and model. E.G. Caterpillar D9R

If you're getting too many broad results, try refining your search terms. You can narrow your search by adding a specific manufacturer, specific model, model year and many other specific features.

The keyword search tool does accept most known aliases and shorthands, but if the search does not return the equipment you are looking for try a different alias. E.G. Bulldozer vs. Crawler Tractor

If you are only searching for a specific auction, include the name of the Auction location in your keyword search, the inventory from that sale will appear first in the results. E.G. Phoenix TEREX TA30s

To view all the equipment in an industry category, use the Directed Search. You can select an industry category and then click the View All (this list) link at the top of the list of manufacturers to see the complete listings for that industry.

Exact Match with Double Quotes
If you place double quotes ( " ) around a group of words, it will search for only exact matches. E.G. "Rock Truck"

Wildcard Search with *
If you place a asterik character ( * ) at the end of your search term, your search will find all words that begin with your search term. E.G. 773*

Force a Match with +
If you include a plus character ( + ) directly infront of a word, only the records containing that word will be returned. E.G. "Rock Trucks" +771D will return only the 771D Rock Trucks and nothing else.

Negative Words with -
If you include a minus character ( - ) directly in front of a word, all records containing that word will be excluded from the results. E.G. "Rock Trucks" -771D will return all the rock trucks except the 771D's
