Water Wagon Auction FAQs
Purple Wave auctions offer a diverse range of water wagons, including popular models from trusted brands like Caterpillar, Volvo, and Terex. You'll find various capacities, from 3,000 to 10,000 gallons, and different configurations such as articulated, off-highway, and scraper-based water wagons.
When evaluating a water wagon, consider factors such as tank capacity, spray bar configuration (front, rear, or both), additional features like water cannons or hose reels, engine specifications, transmission type, and overall condition. Pay attention to the hour meter readings and any noted repairs or issues in the equipment descriptions.
Purple Wave auction listings often include important maintenance information such as hour meter readings, known repairs, and any operational issues. Some listings may also provide links to detailed repair documents. Always review the full description and notes section for each item to get a comprehensive understanding of its maintenance history.
Purple Wave is committed to transparency in all its auctions. Each water wagon listing includes detailed information about the equipment's specifications, condition, and known issues. We provide clear photos and, when available, maintenance records. Our no-reserve format ensures that all bids are genuine and that the highest bidder wins, promoting a fair and open auction process.
When bidding on a used water wagon, consider the equipment's age, hours of use, overall condition, and any reported issues. Pay attention to key components like the engine, transmission, and water tank system. Also, factor in the cost of potential repairs or upgrades. Compare the features and condition of different models to ensure you're getting the best value for your needs.
Different brands excel in various applications. Caterpillar water wagons, such as the 769C or 613C series, are known for their durability and performance in heavy-duty environments. Volvo models like the A35C offer excellent mobility in challenging terrains. The choice depends on your specific application, whether it's mining, construction, or general dust control.
While Purple Wave doesn't directly provide transportation, we can assist you in finding suitable transport options for your purchased water wagon. Given the size and weight of these machines, you may need to arrange for specialized heavy equipment transport. Be sure to factor in transportation costs when bidding, as the buyer is typically responsible for pickup or delivery arrangements.
Purple Wave often provides opportunities for on-site inspections before the auction closes. Check the listing for inspection dates and locations. If you can't inspect in person, review the detailed photos and descriptions provided in the listing. Don't hesitate to contact Purple Wave customer service if you have specific questions about a water wagon's condition or features.
For effective dust control, look for water wagons with features such as adjustable spray bars, water cannons for long-range spraying, and in-cab spray controls for ease of operation. Additional features like side discharge capabilities, remote-controlled water cannons, and hose reels can enhance versatility. Also, consider the tank capacity and spray system efficiency to ensure adequate coverage for your project needs.

Buying and Selling Water Wagons
- Assess the water tank capacity carefully, as it ranges from 3,000 to 10,000 gallons in the available inventory. Choose based on your project requirements.
- Check the hour meter readings, which can vary significantly (e.g., from 115 to 23,110 hours). Lower hours generally indicate less wear, but also verify the overall condition.
- Examine the spray system features, such as front and rear spray bars, side discharge, water cannons, and in-cab controls. These can greatly affect efficiency and versatility.
- Consider the make and model. Popular options include Caterpillar (613C, 623B, 631D) and Volvo models, each with unique specifications.
- Verify the transmission type (e.g., automatic, powershift) and number of gears, as this impacts operability and performance in various conditions.
- Inspect tire conditions and sizes, typically ranging from 23.5-25 to 37.25R35, as replacement can be a significant expense.
Remember to review all available documentation, including maintenance records and repair histories when provided. Utilize Purple Wave's detailed listings and no-reserve auctions to make informed decisions on water wagons for sale.
- Provide comprehensive details about your water wagon, including make, model, year, serial number, and precise hour meter readings.
- Highlight key features such as tank capacity, spray system capabilities (e.g., front/rear spray bars, water cannons), and any recent upgrades or maintenance.
- Include clear information about the engine, such as make (e.g., Caterpillar, Detroit Diesel), number of cylinders, and horsepower when available.
- Mention any additional features like AC/heat, backup cameras, or auto lube systems that can increase the value.
- Be transparent about any issues or non-operational components, such as 'water pump issues' or 'non-operational hour meter', to build trust with potential buyers.
- Take high-quality photos showcasing the overall condition, cab interior, water tank, and any unique selling points of your water wagon.
Leverage Purple Wave's platform to reach a wide audience of potential buyers interested in used water wagons. Providing detailed and honest listings will help attract serious bidders and potentially increase your selling price.
