ABOUT MJ LAVIN

"It All Began in the Back of a Van"

Founded in 1989, MJ Lavin Plant has changed over the years. Starting with just a single mechanic, we now employ a small team of seasoned specialists, who have each contributed to the company’s growing international reputation.

Specialising in the supply of parts for excavators, plant and heavy machinery, we have now grown to one of the UK’s most trusted suppliers of excavator final drives, used plant and machinery, dismantled heavy machinery, whilst still being owned and operated by the Lavin family.

Based in Hoylake in Wirral, we ship products throughout the United Kingdom, Europe and Internationally.

Just like the early days, we are dedicated to providing the most personal and customer-friendly experience in the game – we pride ourselves on this quality, it’s what makes us who we are.

The combination of our professional engineers and educated sales team means no problem is too large for this family, and we promise that should you approach us as a stranger, you will leave as a friend.
