"WOW" WHAT A GREAT EBAYER, VERY HONEST, A TRUE GENTLEMAN, WILL DO BUSINESS WITH AGAIN

Thanks Carver Equip,
Since 05, The B3430 cab tractor has been absolutely a dream. While the hrs are low I assure you this tractor works hard when its running so I expect some repairs. Carver has always been A-1 both before and after the sale. Darn, I wish I lived closer. I'd be dropping by all the time.

Hi Carver Equipment,
We made it home successfully with my used tractor-loader. I haven't had a chance to try it out yet because it's so wet from the rain. Just wanted to say an extra thanks to you and especially Tim. He was very kind and patient today and definitely showed excellent customer service skills. If you guys were a little closer to home, you would get all of my business.
Thanks again,
Jason

Dear Carver Equipment,
We were very pleased with the new tractor we purchased from you all. It was a pleasant experience from beginning to end. We like to take our time and comparison shop before=2 making a purchase, and we had a lot of questions. You answered all our questions patiently and with detail. You also gave us a very competitive quote. We felt that Carver was a solid dealer who would be there in the future. All these positives led to our decision to choose to buy our Kubota from Carver Equipment.
The new tractor that we purchased is a real work-horse and a pleasure to operate, plus it's a good looking machine. As soon as we cranked it up our neighbors flocked in to have a look. One neighbor told us that he wishes he had bought one like ours instead of the kind he got. I told him next time goes to Carver Equipment.
There was a lot of heavy mowing to do but the tractor has handled it nicely. We do a lot of tree planting and were hauling mulch in the wheelbarrow. We now use the front en d loader for that job. ; The amount of time and energy it saves us is unbelievable. Our fields look beautiful now, thanks to our tractor
Thanks guys, we will recommend Carver and their products to everyone.
Sincerely,
John

New mower deck and set of turf tires
Steve,
Thank you for the service and fast purchase.
I am very pleased with your company and staff.

I got my new tractor from Carver. Great Price and Great Folks
 

Steve , Used Mower , IL

Your reputation is well deserved. I contacted Mike and Vicki, the trucker couple, after receiving notification that the mower had been loaded.
We communicated periodically as they traveled home on Saturday. I borrowed a neighbor's son, truck, and trailer. The Cooperative where we purchase seed, propane, and fertilizer agreed to let me use their dock.

Mike arrived on time and we had the machine off his trailer and onto ours in less than twenty minutes.
After a short inspection, I signed the bill of lading with no comments and he left for his next delivery.
Everyone who saw the mower thought it was new. We returned home and unloaded the ZD, again without incident.

The mower took a little getting used to. It sounds more like a grass vacuum than a lawn mower. I started on the front and made my way to the back yard (4-5 acres total). And in less than two hours I had finished what usually took between six and eight. Of course I washed the ZD and gave it a prominent spot in the yard so I can admire it before going to work.

All in all, I must thank you for the very picture of how business should work. Carver Equipment delivered exactly what it said it would, and more (thank you for the new blades); exactly when it said it would, and for exactly the price quoted. When it comes time to purchase a tractor, Carver will be at the top of my list.
Thanks Again,
Steve

Dear Steve:
Just wanted to thank Carver and especially your parts manager for the excellent service in getting me the tooth bar for my loader. It fits great and works like a charm.
Thanks again.

I want to express my satisfaction with my purchase of a used TLB from your business. I may seem a weird idea to import a used compact tractor to Sweden from the USA. But considering the difference in market prices between US and the European Union and the relatively weak US dollar it has proven to be a good affair.
After having decided to buy in the US my greatest concern was to find a reliable dealer to whom I could pay in advance and expect delivery to a US export harbor in due time. I found your business recommended on the TBN and decided to trust you with my deal. And I was not disappointed! I got prompt and correct answers to my mails (also after the deal was closed) and spontaneous updates concerning the export process in the US. So I felt reassured during the whole process which is of some importance when the time from the deal to the delivery is about two months.

I wish you a happy new year.
Sincerely,
Lars

RTV 900 This is one terrific machine -- am having a blast!
I drove 5 hours to get to this dealer because he had an RTV in the config I wanted on the lot. When the man whose name is on the sign spends 3 hours with you, you have probably picked a pretty good place! He was very patient and very fair in his allowance for my Mule and the price on the RTV. He noticed my trailer tire was a bit thin and recommended a tire store down the street - I didn't get in their door good when he pulled in just to check on me and let the tire dealer know I was a customer of his.
If you guys have any need for Kubota or Kawasaki equipment, I cant say enough about Steve Carver at Carver Equipment.
John , SC
The RTV 900 R is beyond my expectation.
It is exactly what I was looking or and you made the whole process so easy and know that I appreciate that.
I'll call you later.

After looking locally without satisfaction purchased from Carver equipment and couldn't be happier. I have even subsequently purchased filters and such from Carver's with the same pleasant experience
 

John, GA
I bought my tractor, fel, 60 mmm, from Carver Equipment in North Carolina.
It came delivered perfectly set up.
The axle for one of the wheels on the mower deck broke.
They sent me a new one immediately, from Carver.

When my middle blade on the 60 mmm stopped spinning, I brought it to a dealer close to my home. He did the warranty work, no questions asked, knowing of course that I did not purchase the tractor there, even though he remembered me looking a few months back.
I bought from Carver because I saved quite a bit.
I used the loader quite a bit -- popping out rocks, moving wood, leveled a pad for a barn, etc.
I grease it every 10 hours. Not one problem yet. I have 100 hours on the machine now.
Love the tractor, no problems with either dealer.

L series tractor
Dear Mr. Carver:
I bought a tractor from you about a month ago.
I just started using it about a week ago. I had some trouble with the tractor and called Al
Murray, our sales person. Al took it from there. He had your service manager call me and walk me through what needed to be done. He sent parts immediately. Any company will have problems, it is how they recover from them that makes the difference.
You should know, I am one of those big city guys that does not know much about tractors. Your folks took the time to educate me and tolerated all of my questions. I never felt any pressure. Your company made the transaction easy. Most important to me, I feel like I could trust your folks with my wallet. There are not many companies you can say that about.
Thank you for having such great people and running such a great business. It has restored my faith that there are still some honest=2 business people left.
Best Regards,
Dave

To Carver Parts Dept->Thanks for getting the assembly link for my Kubota BX23 so fast. It arrived today and is exactly what I needed. A day and a half is pretty fast delivery in the manuals I ordered. I wish the dealer close by would spend some time with you. I ordered turf wheels and tires from him months ago and I had to call him today to find out they had come in. Who knows how long he has had them. From now on I will just order from you.
Again, many thanks.

Hi Carver Equip folks,
Thanks for helping my wife and I with this purchase. We have been using the machine for various tasks and it has been great, I really think it will do everything we need during construction of this new house.
I would not hesitate to recommend Carver to friend who use Kubota.
The man who delivered the machine was=2 really nice. He mentioned you guys can supply parts, and I wanted to thank him as well,
Best,
Phil

Dear Carver Equip,
I just received the spare keys for my tractor. Thank you very much.
It was a pleasure doing business with you. If I will need anything else, parts, implements etc. I will absolutely get it from you.
It is unusual to get the kind of service you provide, and I will absolutely recommend you to my friends, or whoever is in the market for tractors etc.
The gentleman that delivered the tractor to me, was great. He showed up well ahead of the promised delivery time, and made sure I understood the operation of it before he left.
Have a great day.

B21
Thank you Carver Equipment Company for a great experience! I was struggling on what type of equipment to buy (model number, new vs. used) and Steve Carver offered to come out to my farm and walk over and through rough terrain to evaluate my needs. I settled on a used B21 TLB and have been very well pleased. It is a powerful little machine. I said I had a farm, but I am not a farmer. I inherited the farm and new nothing about equipment. Steve’s faithful employee (30+years) Willie spent 1 3/4 hours training me and then Steve came back to my farm an d demonstrated the correct use of the loader and backhoe. We spent several hours on one humongous stump that needed dynamiting. Steve left me his cell phone number in case of emergency and came back by the farm the next day to check on me. NOW, THAT IS WHAT I CALL SERVICE AFTER THE SELL!!! I know if you live in Wyoming or far away places it will be hard for Carver to come out to you, but I wouldn't bet on it. If they can't come to you, you can always come down to my farm and let Carver show you how to dig up some stumps. There are plenty of stumps to share.
Customer for life,
Dave

Took delivery of my BX 2230 this weekend
Steve from Carver brought out the unit to my lot on Friday and I had a ball with it all weekend. Jumped right into cutting some pretty substantial grass and then played around in the dirt where some guys with really heavy equipment are doing some excavation for me. Got to move around some piles of dirt. Now I have to think up some projects to get myself involved in. I am sure it won't be hard. I feel really good about the tractor and the dealer. Good stuff!

Hello Carver Equipment Company,
Just a note to let you know I'm loving' the B3030 & front loader.
It's great just to get out & "play around" with it in the yard & woods.
Of course, even better on the job.
Thanks for the quick quote & delivery.
I'm sure I'll see you sometime this year for the backhoe attachment

Thank-you so much for all that you did, and if there is anything that I can do to return the favor, please let me know, for you deserve a 20 star rating. The people who delivered the tractor were GREAT also. I would use them again in a heart beat.

BX1500
Just wanted to let you know I was pleased with the experience of buying the new BX1500 tractor from you and Hank.
You did everything in the deal you said you would and I appreciated that.
I have really enjoyed the little I have been able to use the tractor.
I also am pleasantly surprised how it handles the loader.
I, as you know, had reservations as to how strong the loader would be.
It is much more useful than I thought.
It took me a little while to learn to operate the loader with the joy stick as I was used to a Bob Cat with foot controls so I was going into the dirt and backing out instead of lifting the bucket!
My plan is to bring it to you for the 50 hour check up.
I only have 8.5 hours on it now so it will be a little while before I do that.
I'll make an appointment so I can come down with it and have it serviced while I wait.
Again, thanks for making this a pleasant experience.

Excellent Service with First Choice Order
Hello Steve,
I must say you folks run a first class business.
I called your sales manager Friday (02/14/03) morning placing my order for a GM30-60 First choice Grooming mower and a BB30-60 First Choice box blade. The freight company called me this morning (02/19/03) with everything delivered by noon.
I had no difficulty assembling the Mower (one hour) or the box blade (half hour).
Everything looks to be fine. I called everyone here locally and your price including the shipping could not be beat.

Your staff was very professional and took care of everything very efficiently.
I do enjoy great service.
Next time I need a new implement I will be calling you folks, I will also recommend you to anyone that is looking for a quality product and superb service.
Thanks again, Steve and Jonathan.

Thanks Steve, I ordered a MULE from you guys a couple of months ago and you helped me pick out some options. By the way it worked out great and we are very happy with the MULE. If you guys ever need a reference in Vermont, you can use me.

thank you!
TO Carver Equip-> Thanks for the fast response on the email.
I am writing you back to tell you that I cannot believe how fast of a response and honesty you and your staff was on helping me with the problems.
I would also like to tell you that you have great service persons and also a great sales persons they were very concerned about my problem, and wanted to do whatever it takes to make it right. I was totally satisfied after talking to your service folks.
You have a great company and would not hesitate one bit on buying again from you in the future which I plan on doing again. I will recommend your store to many people.
 

Bill in the Midwest
I would be pleased to have you add my note to your website as I meant every word. AND I will send you some tractor action photos and some photos of my cabin in the wilderness. Your attention to customer service and satisfaction seems truly rare and genuine.
In this era of the Walmart mentality (bigger is better), dealing with you and your small business would have been a continuing pleasure we were looking forward to. Your references were effusive and very positive regarding your business practices. It is our hope that another deserving customer comes your way this week so you can finally buy your baby grandchild new shoes.


P. T., New England
I bought my used tractor-loader-scraper blade-mower from Carver and found him a pleasure to deal with. The truckers he used in my case was really good about giving me nightly progress reports and revised ETA while she was on the road. One thing to consider before placing your order is the cost of doing a package deal. If you want any attachments, work with Steve now while he has the option of rolling the shipping costs into one lump sum.

To Carver Equipment Co., Inc. Ref: used Kubota RTV 900
We are enjoying the Kubota RTV on a daily bases. It starts great, drives great and has the plenty of power. It makes doing farm chores reasonably fun.
At first, I was skeptical of doing business via email and over the Internet with a company that is over 1,200 miles away. But as our correspondences increased, so did my confidence that Carver Equipment is a company I can trust.
You eased my concerns by promptly answering every question I asked.
Your web site is easy to navigate and very informational.
Delivery was prompt and the RT V arrived in excellent condition.
It was a pleasant experience doing business with you, and your staff.
I look forward to doing more business with you in the future.
Respectfully,
Charles

520 MULE DELIVERY WENT WELL. Yes, Robert brought the Mule this morning very early. He is an early bird. He was very nice also. Thanks a lot.
My husband sure is happy with it. I may never keep him working in the yard again, as he will be riding around all over the community.
Thanks again, You people are a pleasure to do business with.

Mrs. DJ

I just wanted to write you a quick e-mail on how great Carver Equipment is. We bought a used B21 TLB from them a while back with lots of implements.
It was lots of e-mailing back and forth since I got it as a surprise for my husband and tried to read his mind at times on what I should get.
Steve helped me read my husbands mind and did a great job at it. Very often we settled into a decision and then had to do a quick change because my husband mentioned something else to me.
After we got the tractor delivered; which, lucky as we were was actually brought to us by Steve himself. Whenever we have questions on tractors and how we can do some work on our farm our first thing is to send a e-mail to Carver Equipment and see what would help us with our work.
And they always have an answer for us.
Priceless I don't think there is a better place out there either. If you have any doubts about buying from Carver you can call me and I am sure to rave on more about them on the phone.

Hi Steve:
I made it home in good shape. Your friendly and efficient staff got me out of there in no time.
I'm very satisfied with the tractor, etc., and the whole buying process was enjoy able. I don't always feel that way. You'll be hearing from me when I need maintenance supplies or if I have any problems. Thanks.

Just wanted to send a note of thank you!
I love the new B2710 tractor and Moses did a great job of showing me how to use everything.
You are one of most professional, honest and price competitive businesses that I have ever worked with.
I will highly recommend Carver to anyone I talk with who is interested in a tractor.
I couldn't have asked for more throughout the process of purchasing this tractor.
Have a great Christmas?
Warm regards,

Hey Steve,
6:47AM the phone rings and it is the man delivering the tractor from Carver Equipment!
When you said first thing in the AM you meant it!
I run out and it is everything I expected and more.
I've already finish mowed 4 or so acres and the finish mower leaves a wonderful cut!
My wife even commented on how good the grass looks.
I was second guessing myself on getting the R1's but they didn't tear up the grass until I got down by the pond.
Thanks again and you may use me as a reference for prospective buyers!

Steve, I recently purchased a Kubota Tractor from your company and was very satisfied with the whole experience. Everyone were very professional, courteous and responsive to my inquiries. You've put Dunn, NC on my map and Carver Equipment Co. as the place to purchase quality farm equipment. If any of my friends or coworkers should ever be in the market for a tractor, Ill be sure to send them your way. You have a great team working for you!
Best regards,

Steve,
I want to express to you, how truly impressed I am with you and Carver Company. I have seldom been treated with the customer service and genuine caring about ones customers that you live by.
Not only do you sell a quality product, but you back that up with a quality customer service policy,
which is the manner you want your customers to live with after the purchase…it is a policy you do not see anymore and we are the less for it.
Thanks for making my Kubota Tractor purchase pleasurable, with a peace of mind of “after the sale”, a rarity in the world of today.
I look forward to seeing you again.
Sincerely,
Julian

On Feb 14, you delivered a 2002 L3010GST to my home in New Kent, VA. ( just east of Richmond, VA.) To say that I am pleased with my purchase, the service and treatment I received from you and your folks would be a Vass under statement. I'll soon be 62 years young (20 year old mind) and its been forever since I've been treated with the respect, kindness and friendliness you have shown me. My questions were answered in timely, knowledgeable fashion, you responded to my e-mail and calls very quickly. There was no jerking around, bate and switch or any thing that evens came close to being underhanded.
Its a shame that all business does not operate as you do.
Most large companies could and should come down to Dunn, NC and learn how to do business and treat their customers.
Please feel free to use my name, address, phone number or e-mail in anyway.
I can only tell folks how good it was. I just wish you were closer to where I live.

Two years purchase.
Here is a new twist for you bulletin board,
John and I purchased our Kubota HST L3830 two years ago from Carver and have enjoyed every minute of it. Not only was the staff excellent matching our needs to the proper equipment but they were able to answer all the questions we had and give us the best price around for hundreds of miles. It didn't take me long to figure out as a wife that I should learn how to drive this monster or do the grunt work. Since I didn't particularly want to lift or do dirty work, I had a "friend" teach me how to drive the tractor and how to operate the bucket and bush hog. I figured this would spare my husband the "big one and/or harsh words that might have slipped out." I did get a kick when I saw the expression on his face the first time he saw me operating the "Big K". Ever since we have been working side by side and/or sharing the tractor. I figured that having the L3830 gave us another ten years on our lives. Not to mention a longer marriage. It's a great piece of equipment it was an enormous help after Isabel! So...thanks to a great team.

Allan

Just arrived--my used B21 TLB
The tractor runs great and everything seems to be operating the way it should. It was obvious that I need some more practice after playing around on it for an hour.
I wanted to thank you and your team at Carver for the excellent service. Sending the operating manuals in advance helped make things easier when I needed to drive the tractor off the flatbed. Sending the key in advance is a very nice sales touch as much as a safety net if the new keys get lost.
I was looking for a B21 in good condition for a while now and the tractor you sent me was better than what I expected. It looked like a new tractor when it arrived. I didn't want to get it dirty. The new loader bucket on the front was unexpected but very much appreciated. It made the tractor look new with the new Backhoe.
Thanks again to you and Steve for the help making this long distance deal go smoothly.
If Allan you ever need anything from up this way, let me know
