Fleet Replacement Program — Used PistenBully Machines for Sale
Call 888-4-SKICAT to talk through what is available.
Ski Cat runs the largest snowcat rental fleet in North America. Every season we rotate machines out of that fleet and offer them for sale. These are not auction finds or trade-ins. They are units we bought new, specified ourselves, ran in our own rental operation, and maintained on a documented service schedule because our revenue depended on them working.
What that means for a buyer. Every machine comes with a real hour meter reading, a documented service history, and an honest account of its condition. We disclose known issues rather than waiting for you to find them. We encourage buyers to inspect, and we will connect you directly with the local PistenBully Service Center to discuss the machine. On most units a PistenBully service representative can provide a FaceTime inspection on request.
The summer fleet sale opens in March. Each spring we identify the machines rotating out for that year — young, low-hour units in excellent condition. Pricing and availability are published around March, ahead of the summer selling season.
What comes available. Our rental fleet is built on the PistenBully 100, the PistenBully 100 ParkPro and the PistenBully 400 Trail, so those are the machines that rotate out. Passenger cabins, track setters and other tracks and attachments are sold with a machine, not separately.
Looking for something specific? If you know the model, configuration and hours you want, tell us before the sale opens. We can reserve a machine against a deposit while it is still out on its season rental, which locks in the unit and the price ahead of the selling season, and Ski Cat commits to delivering it in the condition represented. The best units go this way, before they are ever listed.
Buying is not the only option. Ski Cat is the national bare-rental source for snowcats. Before you commit capital to a depreciating, maintenance-hungry asset, it is worth running the numbers on a full-season rental instead. Most operators find their capital works harder somewhere else in the business. Own the cash, rent the asset.
Qualifying used equipment currently earns 100% bonus depreciation, which offsets taxable income for the year. Ask your accountant what that means at these price points. Lease-Purchase and financing available.
