BLANCHE EQUIPMENT SALES LTD.




(The Blanche Group of Companies)






Blanche Equipment Sales Ltd.



(Blanche) was formed in 1977 as an independent used heavy equipment sales company by its founder Jim Blanche. They are located in the town of Langley in beautiful British Columbia just 20 minutes north of the U.S. border at Blaine, Washington. They focus entirely on sales and rentals of Hydraulic Excavators and attachments. Being an independent company they are able to offer Hitachi, John Deere, Komatsu and other leading brand name excavators including both new and used. They consistently maintain a fleet of over 60 excavators available for sale, rent or rental purchase ranging in sizes from an EX60-5 (14,000lbs.) to an EX400LC (96,000lbs.).

Blanche's rental philosophy has always been to offer as much variety as possible to help you get the job done as quickly or efficiently as possible. As a result they have attachments ranging from tilt buckets, trenching buckets, clearing rakes, stick mounted rippers, hydraulic thumbs, compactors, hammers, brush cutters, and long reach boom and sticks. By basing all their rental rates on a fair hourly operating cost they can cater to both your long and short term rental needs.

As their inventory grew over the years, Blanche began to look for alternatives to the high cost of parts. Consequently they started to dismantle excavators to develop an internal exchange/used parts program. These parts were then offered to their customers and by 1995 they decided it would better service these customers as a separate company. Langley Excavator Parts Exchange Inc., has since dismantled over 70 excavators of all different makes and sizes.
