Combine

my yard will take them "on the axle" don't know if you have asked or not. if they will leave them on. if not and they are still good see if the local feed mill will take them. the one by me occasionally has used tractor tires for sale. Good luck with it.

If the tires are good you can sell them to a farmer. I have not seen a combine yet that would bring $1800 at the scale, but then again maybe I have not done a big enough one yet.
Rims and all for the drive tires should net you a quick $300. It is ok for them to show some cracks in the tires. Good luck.

its been a year or two since i've broke down a combine, wasn't much to it we pulled the motor, any easy wire got cut, about it. we spent less time on it then most cars we get. i mostly get calls for implements that are NFG and 200 yrs old. but as for loading it we hooked a chain onto it and towed it to the local yard 20km away. thing had no brakes and the steering was loose. wasn't worth trying to load onto any one of our trailers. couple cans of tire foam and we were spoolin down the hiway.

Depends what kind of combine. Maybe be able to sell it to a equipment slavage yard, Cook Tractor, Bootheel Tractor, Abiline Machine, ect.. But it will most likely be easier to sell for shred.

There is very little consistency in scrapping or parting out a combine. As Caleb pointed out, it depends on the brand and model. The only consistency I have found is removing and selling the engine and heads separate is profitable. All of the information posted is right on. The one other element for you to consider is the history of purchases of combines in your area. Many times a local dealer would sell the same model to local farmers in the same year. Sometimes neighbor farmers would get together to make a multi deal. What this means to you is local small farmers might be interested in parts to repair their combines. The smaller the farmer, the more they depend on older equipment. If it is old enough check out the specific web site that supports a forum on that brand. Huron, SD will be hosting the Big Red National Conference (Case/International) in 2014. Other national conferences would be valuable as well. Good luck.
