MEWP Finance Available
UK MEWPS can provide several financing options when purchasing powered access platforms. These include:
- Hire Purchase – Purchase your equipment and spread the cost over terms of between 2 and 5 years. A flexible deposit is paid together with all the VAT at the start of the term and you have the option of a variable or fixed interest rate. At the end of the contract you will own the equipment outright. We are also able to build a service and maintenance contract into the agreement.
- Lease Purchase – This is very similar to hire purchase with the addition of a balloon payment at the end of the term. The monthly payments are reduced in line with the size of the balloon payment.
- Operating Lease – With an operating lease, no initial deposit or VAT payment is required, and the term can be arranged for between 2 and 5 years, this is an ‘off balance sheet’ method of financing and at the end of the term you simply return the equipment. You can then take out a new operating lease on a brand-new machine.
