Buying used construction equipment in Guyana

Georgetown is building faster than its plant market can keep up with.

Omega Machines · Updated 23 October 2026

Guyana is in the middle of the fastest construction boom in the region. Roads, bridges, housing, shore bases and everything the oil industry needs on land. The demand for machines has moved quicker than the supply of them, which is exactly when importing directly makes sense.

The port, and the draft

Georgetown is a river port on the Demerara and it has a draft limit, which affects which vessels can call and therefore how your machine travels. Your shipping agent will know the current position. It is worth asking early, because it can change the routing on a heavy machine.

What Guyana is buying

Excavators of every size for drainage, foundations and land preparation. Wheel loaders and tippers for fill, which this country moves in enormous quantities. Rollers and graders for the road programme. Backhoe loaders for utilities and smaller contracts.

Soft ground

Much of the coastal belt is soft and wet. Tracked machines are the sensible default, and ground pressure matters more here than raw power. Tell us what you are working on and we will say what size fits rather than what we have most of.

Clearing in Georgetown

We prepare the commercial invoice, the packing list and the bill of lading before the vessel arrives. Your own broker clears the machine. We do not publish Guyanese duty rates because they change and a wrong figure costs you at the wharf.

Why buy direct

Because the local price of a machine in a boom reflects the boom. Every machine on our site shows its price, its hours and its engine, so you can see the gap for yourself before you talk to anyone.

Questions from buyers in Guyana

What contractors in Guyana ask us.

Shipping to Georgetown

Do you ship machines to Guyana?+
Yes, to Georgetown, from our China yard and our Moroccan yard, with the price shown on every machine page.
What does a machine cost landed in Georgetown?+
The machine price is on its page and we add the sea freight to give you one landed figure.
Does the river draft affect my machine?+
It can affect which vessels call and therefore the routing. Ask your shipping agent early, because it matters more on a heavy machine.
How long does shipping to Guyana take?+
Name the machine and we give you a firm sailing time to Georgetown, instead of a number that turns out to be wrong.
Can I ship several machines together?+
Yes, and the freight per machine to Georgetown comes down when they travel together.
Do you deliver beyond the wharf?+
No. We finish at loading in the origin port, and the leg from Georgetown onward is arranged at your end.

Machines for Guyanese conditions

What machines suit soft coastal ground?+
Tracked machines, and ground pressure matters more than horsepower. Tell us the site and we will suggest the size.
What do I need for drainage and canal work?+
A tracked excavator sized to the reach you need, with tippers to move the spoil.
What suits the road programme?+
A single drum roller for base, a grader for shaping and tippers for fill, with a loader feeding them.
What machines suit housing developments?+
Twenty tonne excavators, backhoe loaders and mixers, with a loader for material handling.
Do you supply machines for oil industry shore bases?+
Yes, forklifts and wheel loaders for handling, and excavators and tippers for the civil work.

Buying with confidence

How do I check the machine from Guyana?+
Video of it running with the hour meter in the same clip, plus any close photographs you want. An inspector is welcome in either yard.
Who do I pay for a machine going to Guyana?+
Beaumont Investment Group, LLC, our parent company in the United States, for anything leaving China.
What are the payment terms for Guyana?+
75 percent on confirmation and 25 percent before the machine sails for Georgetown.
Which documents do you issue for Guyana?+
The commercial invoice, the packing list and the bill of lading, with you before the vessel reaches Georgetown.
Do you publish Guyanese duty rates?+
No. Your broker will confirm the current rate, and a wrong number from us would cost you money.
