Paint it yourself
I painted my ok looking chipper with tremclad rust paint as a stop gap [I planned to have it sandblast and painted professionally]. I spent the day grinding, taping off the stickers and spraying [15 cans]. My neighbours the next couple days asked me when I bought a new chipper! Long story short, take a day and spray it, it will look almost like new at a fraction of the cost of having it done at a shop.
I was so impressed with the results I painted my chipper truck with spray bombs and foam rollers. I used a paint inhibitor to allow the rolled paint on the box to smooth out. On close inspection it looks orange peely, however, it still looks very clean and people who saw it previously comment positively on it now. People paint boats by rolling with inhibitors, and if your good at it [im not] you can get result that look pro.
I can always get either done professionally. In the mean time the truck and chipper look 80% of what I would expect from a professional job at 5% of the price. I also like the fact I can touch up the paint myself whenever I want. I was getting prices from 4g to 7g to paint my truck and chipper. It cost me three days and 500 bucks in materials and labour to do them myself. It is a good winter project when things are slow anyways.
If your equipment, like mine, is 10 years old you likely can't make it look worse by spraying it yourself.
