FAQ's

Are used pressure washers inspected before sale?

Yes. Each used pressure washer is inspected by trained technicians to ensure it operates correctly and meets performance expectations. This typically includes checking the pump, engine or motor, heating components (if applicable), hoses, fittings, and overall operation before it’s listed for sale.

Are used pressure washers reliable for commercial use?

Yes, when properly inspected and maintained, used pressure washers can be very reliable for commercial and industrial applications. Many used units are built with heavy-duty frames, pumps, and engines designed for long service life.

Do you ship used pressure washers?

Why Buy a Used Pressure Washer?

Buying a used pressure washer is one of the smartest ways to get commercial-grade cleaning power without paying full new-equipment pricing. Many used pressure washers come from trade-ins, fleet upgrades, or lightly used applications, which means you’re often getting a well-maintained machine with plenty of life left.

For contractors, facilities teams, municipalities, and serious DIY users, used pressure washers offer a cost-effective way to expand capacity, add a backup unit, or step up to higher PSI and GPM than a new entry-level model would allow.

When properly inspected and serviced, a used pressure washer can deliver the same performance you’d expect from a new unit at a fraction of the cost.

What to Look for in a Used Pressure Washer

Not all used pressure washers are equal. Knowing what to check helps you avoid surprises and choose a machine that fits your work.

PSI and GPM Ratings

Pressure (PSI) and flow rate (GPM) determine how quickly and effectively a pressure washer cleans. Higher PSI helps break loose tough grime, while higher GPM rinses faster. For commercial work, many buyers look for at least 3,000 PSI and 3.5–4.0 GPM, though the right balance depends on your application.

Hot Water vs. Cold Water

Cold water pressure washers are great for dirt, mud, and general surface cleaning. Hot water pressure washers are better for grease, oil, and heavy buildup. If your work involves engines, equipment, or food service areas, a used hot water pressure washer may be worth the investment.

Gas, Electric, or Diesel Power

Gas-powered pressure washers offer portability and are common for outdoor and jobsite use. Electric models are quieter and ideal for indoor or stationary applications. Diesel units are often found in industrial or fleet environments and are built for long run times.

Pump Condition and Maintenance

The pump is the heart of the pressure washer. Look for signs of regular maintenance, smooth operation, and no visible leaks. A well-maintained pump can last thousands of hours, making it one of the most important factors when buying used.

Engine Hours and Overall Wear

Hours matter, but so does how the machine was used. A pressure washer with moderate hours that was properly maintained can be a better buy than a lightly used unit that sat unused for long periods. Inspect frames, hoses, fittings, and controls for signs of abuse or neglect.
