What is an EWP worth in the Australian market?
EWP values vary enormously by working height, platform type and certification status. A 15m diesel boom lift might be worth $35,000–$80,000; a 20m truck-mounted EWP in good order can exceed $150,000. GOT ONE? shows you what active buyers in your region are prepared to pay.
Do I need current certification to sell an EWP?
Certification is not legally required to sell, but an EWP with expired IPAF or AS 2550 inspection will be discounted heavily or only attract plant traders. Most end-user buyers — especially government and electrical contractors — require current certification.
