Why Certified Pre-Owned
Why Certified Pre-Owned Beats the Open Market
Shopping for a used soft serve machine online seems straightforward — until you actually receive it. The commercial equipment resale market is full of machines sold "as-is" by sellers with no idea what they're selling, no ability to service what they sell, and no obligation after the transaction closes.
Factory Authorization Matters
Only an authorized Taylor distributor can sell equipment that has been properly certified. Rocky Mountains Distributing is the only authorized Taylor distributor and service center in Colorado, New Mexico and Southern Wyoming — which means we are the only source in the region for genuine Taylor Certified Pre-Owned equipment.
Deferred Maintenance Is Invisible
Auction sites, liquidators, and general resellers move machines that may have years of deferred maintenance, missing parts, worn components, and refrigerant issues. These problems are invisible in photos and impossible to diagnose without factory training and diagnostic equipment.
OEM Parts — Not Aftermarket
Every Taylor Certified Pre-Owned machine is reconditioned exclusively with genuine Taylor OEM parts — the same parts used in warranty repairs on brand new equipment. We do not patch problems with aftermarket parts. We fix them properly or we do not sell the machine.
The Hidden Cost of Cheap Equipment
One failed health inspection or a breakdown on your busiest summer weekend will cost far more than you saved. A used Taylor ice cream machine for sale on marketplace or eBay has no warranty, no technician to call, and no accountability after the sale closes. Taylor Certified Pre-Owned does.
Buyer Beware: Obsolete Models With No Available Parts
A significant portion of the used Taylor equipment circulating through liquidation warehouses, Facebook Marketplace, and general resellers consists of obsolete models that Taylor no longer manufactures parts for — including the Taylor 336, 339, 751, 754, and 8754. Sellers of these machines may offer a "warranty" or tell you to "just call Taylor for service" — but if a major component fails, the parts simply do not exist. No authorized Taylor dealer or service center can fix what cannot be sourced. A warranty on an obsolete machine is worthless the moment a key part goes. Rocky Mountains Distributing's Certified Pre-Owned program covers only current-generation equipment for which genuine OEM parts are fully available, stocked, and supported by Taylor's factory service network.

What Sets Taylor Certified Pre-Owned Apart
Buying through a Taylor Distributor versus the open market is not a minor distinction—it determines whether the machine you receive is actually serviceable, warranted, and safe to operate. Rocky Mountains Distributing is the authorized Taylor distributor and factory-certified service provider for Colorado, New Mexico, and Southern Wyoming. That means we have access to factory technical training, genuine Taylor OEM parts, factory diagnostic tools, and direct Taylor technical support. Non-authorized sellers do not have these resources, regardless of what their listing claims.
Every machine we offer as certified pre-owned is inspected by our factory-trained technicians, repaired using genuine Taylor parts when needed, tested to verify proper operation, and backed by a warranty supported by our own service organization. If an issue arises during the warranty period, our factory-trained technicians can provide service throughout our territory using the same expertise and support resources available for new Taylor equipment.
Watch Out for Obsolete Models You Can't Get Parts For
If a price seems too good to be true, check the model number. Many used Taylor machines sold through auctions, liquidators, online marketplaces, and third-party resellers are obsolete models that Taylor no longer manufactures parts for, including models such as the 336, 339, 751, 754, and 8754.
When critical components fail on these machines, replacement parts may be unavailable, making repairs difficult or impossible. Any warranty offered on an obsolete machine may provide little value if replacement parts cannot be obtained.
Rocky Mountains Distributing focuses on current-generation Taylor equipment and supported models with OEM parts availability, helping operators avoid costly surprises after purchase.
Used Soft Serve Machines — Authorized vs. Non-Authorized
Taylor Certified Pre-Owned is a formally defined category—not a marketing term. It requires factory authorization, factory-trained technicians, genuine OEM parts, and a service organization capable of supporting the equipment after the sale.
As the authorized Taylor distributor for Colorado, New Mexico, and Southern Wyoming, Rocky Mountains Distributing provides operators with access to factory-trained technicians, OEM parts, installation support, preventative maintenance, and ongoing service. This helps ensure that purchasing a certified pre-owned Taylor soft serve machine comes with support you can rely on long after the machine is installed.
Current Inventory & Pricing
Certified pre-owned inventory changes frequently as machines become available through customer trade-ins, equipment upgrades, lease returns, and fleet replacement projects throughout Colorado, New Mexico, and Southern Wyoming. Many of the machines we offer were previously operated by established restaurants, ice cream shops, convenience stores, schools, and entertainment venues that upgraded to newer equipment.
Every machine accepted into our Certified Pre-Owned program is evaluated by our factory-trained technicians and must meet our standards for reconditioning, OEM parts support, and long-term serviceability before being offered for sale.
The best way to learn what is currently available is to call 800-758-1038 or contact our sales team. We'll discuss available equipment, pricing, machine condition, and delivery timelines for your location.
Financing Available
Financing options may be available for qualified buyers through our financing partners. Financing can help businesses acquire equipment while managing upfront capital costs and preserving cash flow for other operational needs.
