Lease vs. Own: What's the best option for you?

Make the Right Decision for Your Fleet

Understanding the strategic role your truck fleet plays in your business, as well as its lifecycle maintenance, financial and administrative costs, are typically the first steps in determining whether full service lease or ownership is the best option for you.

Consider evaluating a lifecycle cost comparison between ownership and full service lease. In doing so, you should consider some of the hidden benefits of full service lease as well as the associated costs of owning your fleet which are often included in full service lease programs.

Full Service Lease Benefits

  • 100% financing with no upfront costs
  • Accurate monthly budgeting of fleet expense throughout the life of the lease
  • Maximum uptime through structured preventive maintenance & replacement truck availability
  • Truck specification & purchasing leverage expertise with most manufacturers
  • Focus your capital & resource investments on your core business

Associated Ownership Costs

  • Truck spec’ing, customization, procurement & financing
  • Residual value risk & remarketing of equipment
  • Management and coordination off all maintenance - planned & unplanned
  • Licensing, permitting & fuel tax reporting fees & administration
  • Substitutes for trucks sidelined for repairs
  • Coordination of over-the-road breakdowns, towing & service vendor management

With all eyes on the bottom line, many businesses choose leasing because it's a viable alternative to finance the transportation equipment they need.
