Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Where are we located?

A. Hughesville, PA. We are about an hour northeast of Harrisburg and about 20 minutes south of Williamsport.

Q. What is the ordering process?

A. Once you and your salesman have determined the machine you need, a deposit is put down on the machine. Deposits usually consist of 50% of the purchase price then a sales agreement is created and your machine is taken into our shop for evaluation. Many times the machine has already been evaluated beforehand, but re-evaluation is done. If it is determined that any replacement parts are recommended by our technician you will receive this information and can decided if you would like us to proceed with the repair. Once the machine is ready to ship we require the balance plus the addition of any shipping cost. Our shipping coordinator will arrange to have the machine processed, prepared, and shipped. If you have a preferred carrier, then all we will need is a copy of the bill of lading. Your salesman will be happy to provide guidance along the way to purchasing your new and used machine.
