Purchasing used commercial cleaning equipment can help businesses obtain professional-grade machinery without the higher upfront investment associated with new equipment.

Benefits can include:

• Lower initial equipment costs

• Professional floor cleaning performance

• Excellent maneuverability

• Multiple cleaning widths

• Battery-powered and corded options

• Reduced dependence on manual mopping

Used walk-behind scrubbers are available in numerous sizes and configurations, making it possible to match equipment more closely to the facility being cleaned.

Used Commercial Walk Behind Floor Scrubbers

Commercial walk-behind scrubbers can be used across many types of properties, including:

• Retail stores

• Grocery stores

• Schools

• Hospitals

• Office buildings

• Hotels

• Restaurants

• Warehouses

• Manufacturing facilities

• Distribution centers

Smaller machines are particularly useful when operators need to navigate doorways, aisles, shelving, equipment, and other obstacles.

Used Walk Behind Floor Scrubbers for Warehouses

Warehouse floors can accumulate dirt, dust, tire marks, spills, and other contaminants from forklifts, pallet jacks, employees, and everyday operations.

Walk-behind floor scrubbers can provide an efficient solution for warehouse aisles and areas where a larger ride-on machine may be difficult to maneuver. Industrial scrubbers can also clean considerably more floor area than traditional manual methods.

When choosing a warehouse floor scrubber, consider:

• Total cleaning square footage

• Aisle width

• Floor condition

• Cleaning frequency

• Machine cleaning path

• Battery runtime

• Tank capacity

• Storage requirements

Battery-Powered Walk Behind Floor Scrubbers

Battery-powered scrubbers give operators the ability to clean without managing a power cord.

Battery configurations vary considerably between machines. For example, commercial used walk-behind models currently on the market include 24-volt machines with cleaning paths ranging from compact 20-inch configurations to substantially larger scrub decks.

Before buying a battery-powered machine, check the battery age, condition, runtime, charger, and estimated replacement cost.

Self-Propelled Walk Behind Floor Scrubbers

Self-propelled or traction-drive scrubbers use a drive system to help move the machine forward, reducing the amount of physical effort required from the operator.

This feature can be particularly valuable when cleaning larger areas or using machines with larger tanks and cleaning decks. Used and demo walk-behind machines with traction drive are available in the commercial equipment market.

Choosing the Right Cleaning Width

Cleaning width has a major impact on both maneuverability and productivity.

A narrower machine can be easier to operate through tight aisles and congested areas. A wider scrub deck allows the operator to cover more floor with each pass.

Common used walk-behind machines include cleaning paths around 20 inches, 26 inches, and larger configurations.

The best size depends on the dimensions and layout of your facility.

What to Check When Buying a Used Walk Behind Floor Scrubber

Before purchasing a used machine, inspect its major systems and components.

Battery Condition

Determine the battery age, charging performance, expected runtime, and whether replacement batteries may be required.

Operating Hours

If the machine has an hour meter, check its operating hours and consider them alongside its maintenance history and overall condition.

Scrub Deck

Inspect brushes, pads, pad drivers, motors, and other scrub-deck components.

Squeegee System

Check the rear squeegee assembly, blades, hoses, and vacuum system. These components are responsible for recovering dirty solution from the floor.

Solution and Recovery Tanks

Inspect both tanks for leaks, cracks, damage, and excessive buildup.

Charger

For battery-powered machines, determine whether the correct charger is included with the equipment.

Parts Availability

Make sure replacement parts and routine wear components remain available for the manufacturer and model.

Used vs. Refurbished Walk Behind Floor Scrubbers

Used and refurbished equipment are not necessarily the same.

A used floor scrubber is generally a previously operated machine being offered for resale.

A refurbished machine typically receives additional inspection, servicing, cleaning, repair, or replacement components before being offered for sale. Some equipment dealers, for example, advertise refurbished machines with new batteries or replacement wear components and limited warranties.

Always ask exactly what inspection or refurbishment has been performed on a particular machine.

Save Money on Commercial Floor Cleaning Equipment

Buying used equipment can provide significant value, but price should not be the only consideration.

Compare:

• Machine condition

• Operating hours

• Battery condition

• Cleaning width

• Tank capacity

• Charger condition

• Parts availability

• Maintenance requirements

• Included accessories

• Warranty, if applicable

A well-matched machine can provide better long-term value than simply purchasing the least expensive scrubber available.
