Purpose and scope

What the directory is and is not

What it is

An editorial reference for buyers researching the European used construction equipment ecosystem. Coverage includes OEM distributors, used equipment dealers, transport operators, finance providers, insurance specialists, and service and inspection companies.

Entries are selected for relevance to buyers working in European markets. The directory is being built and curated over time — it is not a comprehensive database.

What it is not
Not a marketplace — no listings, no transactions, no quote requests
Not a lead-routing service — MachineryAssistant does not pass enquiries to listed companies
Not a paid or sponsored directory — listing is editorial, not commercial placement
Not an endorsement — listing does not imply MachineryAssistant recommends or vets any company
Not affiliated with any listed company
How entries are selected

Editorial inclusion criteria

Relevance to buyers

Companies are included because they play a meaningful role in the purchase, inspection, movement, financing, or maintenance of used construction equipment in European markets.

Independently verifiable

Entries are based on publicly available information — official websites, official distributor pages, and trade sources. MachineryAssistant does not publish unverifiable claims.

No commercial relationship required

Companies may be listed without any relationship with MachineryAssistant. Listing is not a paid placement. Any future sponsored content would be clearly disclosed.
