Wirtgen WR 240 i Review: Recycler in North Carolina

By Worksite Safety Hub / HSSE TIPS · 16 October 2026

Your next road project starts below the surface. Before the final pavement goes down, the material underneath needs the right treatment. For contractors planning soil stabilisation or cold recycling, a dedicated milling-and-mixing machine is an important part of that process.

This used Wirtgen WR 240 i offer gives you an identified machine to assess against your next job. Its advertised engine rebuild, working dimensions and water-system description provide useful starting points for a focused supplier conversation.

Review method: desk-based assessment of the supplied Machineryline listing, Omnia’s matching stock page and Wirtgen manufacturer information. We have not inspected or operated this machine. Seller-reported unit details are distinguished from general model-family context.

The advertised offer at a glance

A machine for working with the material already on site

Wirtgen describes the WR series as machinery for soil treatment and cold recycling of asphalt roads. Its milling and mixing rotor blends existing soil with pre-spread binding agents during stabilisation. In cold recycling, the process mills and mixes existing pavement material for a new treated layer.

That makes the application discussion especially useful for road contractors and teams preparing access routes or development sites. Start with the material assessment and treatment design: what must be processed, to what depth and with which binder?

Ask the supplier to connect that method to this machine’s installed equipment. A project brief with the layer design and material information helps define the package you need to mobilise.

The engine rebuild: keep the records with the machine

The seller reports an engine rebuild with 100 hours. Request the rebuild date, work scope, supporting invoices and current readings. Keep these documents alongside the machine’s wider service history.

For a fleet maintenance team, those records support planning before delivery: routine servicing, parts identification and the information needed for the receiving workshop. Ask which manuals and service documents accompany the unit.

Two different hour figures: the listing’s machine hours and its rebuilt-engine hours describe different records. Ask the supplier to explain the relevant counters during a current demonstration and confirm both readings in the quotation.

Plan the water supply around the fitted system

The offer describes an “1800L Water System”. Request the exact installed system designation, rated flow, connection requirements and operating documentation. Have the supplier explain what that description means for this unit’s configuration.

For example, when planning a cement-treated layer, share the required moisture-control approach and water-supply arrangement. Discuss how the fitted system will be supplied and controlled within that process.

Agree any additional dosing equipment required by the design in writing. This keeps the purchase enquiry tied to the actual treatment method and the equipment arriving on site.

Working width and depth: build a practical pass plan

Use the advertised working dimensions to begin a drawing of the treatment area. Mark strip widths, overlaps, boundaries, turning areas and access for supporting equipment.

Then connect the mixing operation to the rest of the sequence: binder spreading, water supply, grading, compaction and quality checks. The specified treatment depth and acceptance criteria should come from the project design and competent technical team.

Share the site layout with the supplier. Request the machine’s working envelope and transport dimensions so your team can assess setup, movement and mobilisation using the actual configuration.

Product location: North Carolina, USA

The matching Omnia stock page identifies North Carolina, USA as the product location. Quote US2365 when arranging the inspection, demonstration or collection.

Before booking transport, confirm the loading point, loading arrangements, shipment dimensions and actual loading weight. Provide the destination port and final site separately when requesting an export quotation.

Delivery areas and published shipping arrangements

Omnia advertises worldwide shipping on the matching product page, with regular shipment updates and included customs paperwork. Its shipping page describes freight, documentation and marine-insurance support.

Request written confirmation that this machine can be delivered to your destination. Ask for the route, transport method, delivery term, insurance cover and itemised costs, including the responsibilities for clearance and final-site delivery. A destination-specific freight price is not stated in the checked offer.

Payment and shipment timing

Omnia’s published pro forma terms state that a 10% non-refundable deposit secures goods and full payment is required within 14 days of the invoice date. Shipping dates are advisory, and a refundable export bond can apply in certain delivery circumstances.

Have the supplier identify the contract terms applicable to US2365 and confirm the payment schedule, documentation responsibilities and estimated dispatch and arrival dates in writing.

Photos, controls and a current demonstration

The supplier photographs provide exterior views and a control-display image. Ask for a current demonstration of the actual unit, with the stock reference, serial number, readings and fitted systems identified.

Use the demonstration to prepare operator familiarisation and maintenance handover. Plan ground support, buried services, working clearances and separation around the machine through the site assessment and applicable operating instructions.

Watch: official Wirtgen WR-series walk-around

Official footage listed as “Wirtgen WR Series 200 XLi / 240i / 250i - Walkaround Video” on Wirtgen’s Conexpo page. This is model-family context, not footage of US2365 or confirmation of its installed options. Use the machine’s supplied manual and training for operation.
