Last updated: August 2026 dataSelf-propelled combine harvester-threshers — machines that simultaneously cut, thresh, separate, and clean grain in a single field pass — represent one of the highest-value single-unit imports in agricultural machinery trade. Engine horsepower, header width, and grain tank capacity are the primary commercial specifications that differentiate models and influence pricing and logistics. Importers should be aware that large self-propelled combines may require oversize-load permits for over-the-road transport after port clearance, and that used combines may face additional scrutiny for soil and plant-material contamination under USDA APHIS biosecurity requirements.

Yes. Used agricultural machinery, including combines, is subject to USDA APHIS inspection for soil, plant debris, and pest contamination that could introduce foreign agricultural pests or diseases. Importers should ensure equipment is thoroughly cleaned and may need to present a cleaning certificate; APHIS officers can order decontamination or refuse entry if prohibited material is found.
Full-size combines typically exceed standard highway width and height limits, requiring oversize-load permits and escort vehicles for transport from the port of entry to the final destination. Importers should coordinate with specialized heavy-haul carriers and confirm port-of-entry infrastructure (crane capacity, staging area) can accommodate the machine's dimensions and weight before shipment.
