Inspectors use IronPlanet’s proprietary inspection to ensure consistent, quality inspections that buyers can count on.
Instant Financing with Express
Bidders can choose to get pre-approved for financing instantly via Express prior to bidding so they are confident in placing higher bids, or they can choose instant financing via Express after purchasing an item. Cat Financial, a trusted name in the industry, is also a partner with IronPlanet for equipment finance.
