🚜 MachineryTrader Scraper

🚀 Pull heavy machinery listings from MachineryTrader in minutes. Equipment specs, prices, dealer contacts, location, hours, year. No API key, no manual CSV wrangling.

Pull live equipment listings from MachineryTrader, the world's largest heavy equipment marketplace covering construction, agriculture, transportation, and industrial machinery. The actor accepts a search URL or category-and-filter combination, walks the result pages, and returns one structured record per equipment listing ready for dealer prospecting, equipment valuation, fleet planning, or auction-house intelligence.

Every run fetches data live so you get the current state of MachineryTrader at run time. Records include make, model, year, hours / mileage where applicable, asking price, condition, location, full specifications, dealer contact info, image gallery, and the canonical MachineryTrader URL.

📋 What the MachineryTrader Scraper does

• 🚜 Equipment listings. Make, model, year, hours, condition, price.
• 🛠️ Full specifications. Category-specific specs (engine HP, lift capacity, working width, etc.).
• 📸 Image galleries. Primary photo plus the full gallery URL list.
• 📍 Location detail. Dealer city, state, ZIP code where exposed.
• 👤 Dealer contact. Dealer name, phone, address, and rating.
• 🔗 Direct URL. Back-reference to each MachineryTrader listing.

The scraper accepts either a MachineryTrader search URL (with all filters baked in) or a category code + filter combination. It walks result pages, fetches each detail page, and pushes structured records to the dataset.

💡 Why it matters: MachineryTrader has the largest US-centric heavy equipment inventory but its UI is paginated, JS-rendered, and lacks bulk export. A live, structured pull beats manual scraping for dealer intelligence, valuation work, and fleet planning.
