Used Compactors
Shop-reconditioned compactors, built to order on a short turnaround.
A commercial compactor is a steel box with hydraulics, which means a properly reconditioned machine can run for another decade at a fraction of new cost. The difference between a bargain and a headache is who did the reconditioning.
We build reconditioned compactors to order rather than holding a big lot: tell us what you need and we source the right core, then it goes through our fabrication shop, hydraulics tested and resealed, cylinders and packing serviced, floors and wear surfaces gone through, controls checked, and the machine cycle-tested under load before it ships. Turnaround is usually short, and we stand behind it because we are also the ones who will service it in the field.

What you get with Norton.
Shop-reconditioned, not "as-is"
Hydraulics, electrics, structure, and safety systems are gone through in our shop, not pressure-washed and flipped.
Built to order, short turnaround
We source and recondition to your spec rather than pushing whatever is on a lot, and turnaround is usually quick. Tell us what you need.
Warrantied & supported
Reconditioned units carry a shop warranty and full access to our parts and service network.
Machine down? Sizing question? Talk to a real tech, not a call center.
