Connecting Buyers & Sellers of Construction Equipment, Parts and Services

On April 14, 1966, the first four-page Contractors Hot Line “want-to-buy” newsletter was distributed by an Iowa contractor and his wife to industry professionals searching for an easier way to locate and sell equipment in the Midwest.

Today, the weekly digital magazine has expanded to connect construction professionals across the US market with essential new and used equipment, parts and attachments, equipment auctions and industry services.

This group also publishes Parts Connection, a monthly digest sized publication that is highly recognized and utilized by the industry as the directory for buying and selling new, used and refurbished parts for all types of construction equipment. Its format makes it easy to find parts by type, manufacturer and location.

Attachment Connection is an annual directory dedicated to attachments for construction equipment, providing buyers, sellers and equipment owners with a base of knowledge on the use of attachments to increase the versatility of their machinery fleets and expand their service offerings.

Additionally, the Hot Line Construction Equipment Guide, published annually in both print and digital formats, provides information on types of heavy equipment from over 330 manufacturers. With over twenty years of research, this guide is the most comprehensive single volume pricing tool for the construction industry.
