ESS GROUP LLC is a used heavy equipment yard on US Highway 1 in Hilliard, Florida (552882 US-1). Inspected skid steers, excavators, telehandlers, tractors, backhoes, and trailers — every unit backed by the IRON+ 30-Day Guarantee, with transparent pricing and nationwide shipping.
Live in Alabama and couldn't make the drive, so I leaned hard on the IRON+ window. My Kubota SVL75-2 showed up on the truck matching every photo, undercarriage right where they said. No regrets.

Gave them my ZIP and had a written freight figure inside the hour. Final invoice matched to the dollar — no fuel surcharge sprung on me at load time. That alone earned my trust.

I'd never bought a machine over the phone. The Hilliard desk walked me through the deposit, the bill of sale, and the return window without rushing. CAT 305.5 runs perfect on my grading jobs.

Asked for a close-up of the serial and hour meter before wiring. Both were in my inbox in under ten minutes and matched the listing. That's how you sell iron to a careful buyer.

The 416F is a workhorse and the price beat everyone. Only reason it's four stars is the hauler slipped two days behind the estimate. Dispatch kept me posted, so no real harm done.

Genie GTH-636 came serviced with the forks on and a fresh set of filters. Billed exactly what was quoted. My crew has run it every day since without a hiccup.

Told them the jobs I do and they steered me to a compact excavator instead of the bigger one I wanted. Saved me around eight grand. Who does that? The Hilliard yard did.

Booked an appointment and drove up from Ocala. Machine was warmed up on the pad, ready to cycle. Real yard, real iron on US-1, real people. Bought the mini ex on the spot.

Komatsu WA200 hauled to central Texas without drama. The out-of-state title packet was spotless — my county clerk had zero questions. Smooth from wire to delivery.

Came back for a skid steer after last year's dozer deal went so well. Bobcat S64 loaded the same day I paid the balance. Repeat customer for a reason.

Wanted proof it fired up cold, not after sitting warm. They sent an unedited clip of the John Deere 310SL turning over on the first crank. Sold me instantly.

Applied through their financing path for a compact track loader with the 10k down. Approved and funded before my credit union even returned my call. Painless.
