FAQ
What IronTrace can—and cannot—tell you.
Is this the same as a car VIN report?
No. Heavy equipment records are fragmented and often use manufacturer serial numbers. IronTrace organizes available findings and identifies gaps.
Can a report guarantee the machine is not stolen or financed?
No. IronTrace reports available findings and recommends independent seller, lien, ownership, and law-enforcement verification.
How long does a report take?
The launch target is generally within one business day, depending on source availability.
Does IronTrace inspect the machine?
No, unless a separate inspection is explicitly offered. A report does not replace a mechanical inspection.
