Florida International Equipment in Hilliard: The Local Review (2026)

Anyone who drives US-1 through Hilliard knows the equipment yard just south of the Georgia line: rows of excavators, skid steers, and tractors at 552882 US-1. That is FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLY LLC — FIES — the anchor listing in our Hilliard business directory and the business out-of-town readers ask us about most.

What the yard does

FIES buys, inspects, and sells used heavy equipment — excavators, dozers, skid steers, backhoes, telehandlers, and farm tractors — and ships nationwide. Inventory is published with photos and prices at ess-group-florida.com, and the yard takes visitors by appointment at (904) 274-0341.

Is Florida International Equipment legit?

It is the question every out-of-town buyer asks about a small-town yard, so here is the local answer: yes. The company is a registered Florida LLC, the yard is real and mapped on Google, the phone gets answered, and every retail purchase carries the IRON+ 30-day money-back guarantee — full refund on elected returns, return transport covered. Buyers fly in from other states, and plenty of machines leave Hilliard on lowboys headed for Texas, the Carolinas, and the Midwest.

What it means for Hilliard

The yard brings steady buyer traffic into Nassau County — travelers who fill tanks, eat at local tables, and sometimes stay the night before an appointment. For a town Hilliard's size, an equipment dealer with a national buyer base is a genuine local asset, which is why it sits at the top of our directory.
