Heavy Equipment Claims Management
Global Guardian Services helps you handle complex heavy equipment claims with precision and speed.
Heavy equipment and specialty vehicle claims require more than standard appraisal experience—they demand industry-specific knowledge, technical accuracy, and fast, defensible evaluations. Global Guardian Services provides heavy equipment claims management tailored to the complexities of non-standard assets. From agricultural machinery and construction equipment to trailers, RVs, and modified commercial vehicles, we help you assess damage quickly and accurately to support faster settlements and reduce financial exposure.
Our appraisers understand the operational, logistical, and financial pressures that come with these claims. Whether the equipment is stored at a job site, in transit, or at a yard, we provide flexible solutions, including onsite inspections or remote evaluations, to meet the needs of every file.
We routinely evaluate vehicles and equipment with complex modifications, upgrades, or non-standard configurations. From custom fabrication on trailers to aftermarket installations in RVs or heavy-duty service vehicles, our appraisers provide documentation that reflects both asset condition and specialized value, ensuring your claim file is accurate and defensible. We understand how enhancements impact both functionality and valuation, and we apply that insight to every estimate. This attention to detail helps avoid disputes, supports faster claim resolution, and protects against undervaluing or overpaying on specialized assets.
Let’s make your next heavy equipment claim easier. Contact Global Guardian Services to connect with a team that understands the value of accuracy, responsiveness, and technical expertise, no matter how complex the asset.
Inaccurate assessments of specialty equipment can lead to inflated payouts, missed subrogation opportunities, or costly disputes. GGS helps you avoid these risks through reliable, real-world appraisals built for commercial, agricultural, and industrial machinery claims. Every evaluation we deliver is rooted in evidence, from job site photos and equipment specs to comparative market data and repair documentation.
Whether the claim involves routine wear and tear or catastrophic damage, we tailor our evaluation to reflect the true condition and fair market value of the unit. Our team’s knowledge of sector-specific equipment ensures that nothing is overlooked, giving you the clarity needed to settle confidently and close files faster.
What areas do your heavy equipment appraisers cover?
GGS offers nationwide heavy equipment claims management through a network of experienced field appraisers and remote estimation capabilities. Our team is strategically positioned across all 50 states to ensure rapid response and consistent service, whether the equipment is located on a construction site, in transit, or at a storage facility. This geographic reach allows us to handle high volumes while maintaining turnaround times.
Are your appraisers familiar with manufacturer specs and OEM part pricing?
Yes. Our team routinely references original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications, pricing databases, and sector-specific tools to ensure our appraisals reflect real-world repair and replacement costs. We also stay current with updates from manufacturers and suppliers, allowing us to evaluate both common and custom machinery with precision.
How does GGS handle equipment that was in operation at the time of loss?
When heavy equipment is in use during a loss event, context matters. We document job site conditions, operator input, environmental factors, and machine diagnostics (when available) to reconstruct the incident accurately. This thorough approach supports causation analysis, liability determination, and informed repair or total loss decisions.
How does GGS ensure accuracy in remote appraisals?
We use high-resolution photo documentation, client-submitted data, technical specs, and more to complete desktop appraisals that meet industry standards. When necessary, we follow up with phone interviews, digital inspections, or local field support to validate estimates and confirm asset condition.
