Cranes and aerial lifts we finance

What to know when financing a crane or aerial lift

  • Inspection and certification records are important for used cranes and lifts.
  • Truck-mounted cranes are titled; we handle title and lien recording.
  • Rental fleets may finance many units on one schedule.
  • Rigging gear and attachments can be included.

How it’s usually structured

An EFA is common for owner-operators. Rental fleets often use master agreements with multiple schedules so new units can be added quickly.

Equipment finance agreement (EFA)You own it from day one. Fixed payments; usually eligible for Section 179.
$1-buyout leaseLease payments, then you buy it for $1. Treated much like an EFA for tax.
Fair-market-value (FMV) leaseLower payments. Return, renew or buy at market value at the end.

What we look at

Time in business, business and owner credit, revenue, and the equipment’s details: make, model, year, serial number and condition. Requests above $1M also need financial statements.

Section 179

Equipment bought with an EFA or $1-buyout lease and placed in service by December 31 may qualify for a first-year deduction. Estimate your tax savings.
