The Appraisal FoundationAuthorized by Congress as the source of appraisal standardsAppraiseItNow provides professional equipment and machinery appraisals across Wyoming for a wide range of purposes, including charitable donations, lending and financing, mergers and acquisitions, and financial reporting. Wyoming's industrial economy, anchored by energy extraction, mining, agriculture, and manufacturing, generates consistent demand for credible, well-documented equipment valuations that hold up to scrutiny from lenders, the IRS, and financial auditors. Whether you operate a mining operation near Gillette, a manufacturing facility in Casper, or an agricultural business in Sheridan, our appraisers understand the asset types and valuation challenges specific to Wyoming's market.
AppraiseItNow serves clients throughout Wyoming with both remote and onsite appraisal options, making it easy to get a certified valuation regardless of your location in the state. Our equipment and machinery appraisals are conducted by credentialed appraisers who follow USPAP standards and produce reports prepared to meet the requirements of the IRS, SBA lenders, financial institutions, and accounting teams. We offer Fair Market Value (FMV), Orderly Liquidation Value (OLV), Forced Liquidation Value (FLV), and Replacement Value appraisals for various intended uses.
Our appraisers cover a broad spectrum of equipment and machinery categories found across Wyoming's diverse industrial and commercial sectors. From heavy oilfield rigs to restaurant kitchens, we have the expertise to value assets accurately and efficiently.
Wyoming's property tax rules add a layer of complexity for equipment owners operating across multiple counties, as the Wyoming Department of Revenue requires apportionment using either the time method or monetary method for multi-county assets. Mobile machinery in Wyoming may also be assessed on county rolls rather than registered as a vehicle, depending on the owner's election under state statute. Our appraisers are familiar with these Wyoming-specific considerations and produce reports that support both tax reporting and broader financial purposes.
We serve a wide range of clients across Wyoming, including business owners, ranchers, lenders, CPAs, attorneys, nonprofit organizations, and corporate finance teams who need reliable equipment valuations for tax compliance, loan collateral, asset sales, or financial statement reporting. Whether you are a small business owner in Laramie or a large energy company in the Powder River Basin, AppraiseItNow has the resources and expertise to meet your appraisal needs quickly and accurately.
What Wyoming clients say we are known for
Across 16 published Wyoming appraisal reviews, every one from a client who paid AppraiseItNow for an appraisal, the three things they raise most often are that they would hire us again, how quickly we answer, and how much research is visible in the report.
I recommend AppraiseItNow Inc. highly. I needed an appraisal of fair market value for geologic laboratory equipment for charitable donations to three universities. The unique items and limited secondary market complicated the valuation. They provided a sound, verifiable estimate and the 8283 forms that I was able to use in my tax filings. I would use them again.
Lab Equipment Appraisal for Charitable Donation
AppraiseItNow did an outstanding job appraising my 1998 Bobcat Skid Steer and circa 2010 Yuchai Crawler Dozer. We could not locate a serial number on the dozer, and there were no online sales available, but they were still able to develop an accurate appraisal using known specifications for my dozer compared to other comparable make and model dozers. They diligently researched both equipment items and provided well-documented reports.
Machinery & Equipment Appraisal
I highly recommend the AppraiseItNow team. They were responsive and timely from start to finish, and the whole process was seamless. The final report was super detailed and gave me all the information I needed. I am so glad I hired them and would recommend them to anyone needing an appraisal!
Technology Equipment Appraisal for Divorce
I needed an IRS-qualified appraisal for an unusual and costly piece of medical equipment. AppraiseItNow was able to provide me exactly what I needed on a timely basis. The personnel at the company are very friendly and helpful. I would definitely use them again.
Medical Equipment Appraisal for Charitable Donation
Affordable and reliable, with fast service and always responsive to my messages and questions. They delivered my appraisal on time without a glitch. 100% Recommended! I wouldn’t use anyone else for my business. Thank you, Joe — you’re great!
Machinery & Equipment Appraisal for Bankruptcy Filing
They did an appraisal of medical equipment for donation. They did it quickly, and I received a blank form 8283 signed by the appraiser. It was what I needed. The price was higher than I wanted to spend on an appraisal, but a lot lower than other appraisers. AppraiseItNow was very responsive and communicative, and the other appraisers were not. I would use them again.
Medical Equipment Appraisal for Charitable Donation
Given the USPAP-compliant nature of AppraiseItNow’s appraisal reports, we prepare our deliverables for major legal, tax, and financial reporting purposes for individual and commercial clients.
Popular uses of our appraisal reports include:
We establish current replacement cost from manufacturer and vendor pricing and recognized cost guides, then deduct physical wear, functional obsolescence, and economic obsolescence. For specialized Wyoming equipment that rarely trades hands, this cost-based analysis often anchors the value where comparable sales are too thin to stand alone.
By March 1 each year, covering taxable personal property owned as of the January 1 valuation date, with an extension to April 1 available on written request by February 15. If no report is filed, the assessor may estimate value from the best information available, which rarely favors the owner.
The state values commercial and industrial personal property at fair market value using cost, sales comparison, and income methods, but applies depreciation only down to a floor of roughly 20% of original cost. An independent appraisal follows the actual market below that floor, which matters for older equipment being sold, financed, or divided.
Yes, through the de minimis exemption. Under W.S. 39-11-105(a)(xlii), business property totaling $2,400 or less in fair market value within a single county is exempt from ad valorem tax. The test aggregates all business property per county, so an operation spread across counties evaluates each county separately, and once holdings cross the threshold the property is taxed normally.
