What are the different types of Asset finance for forklifts?

Hire Purchase

A financing method where you buy the forklift through installments, gaining ownership after the final payment.

Hire Purchase

Hire Purchase allows you to spread the cost of the forklift over fixed payments. After paying all installments, you own the forklift, making it suitable for businesses wanting long-term ownership but needing to manage cash flow.

Finance Lease

A lease agreement where you use the forklift for most of its useful life, with the option to buy at the end.

Finance Lease

With a Finance Lease, you lease the forklift for a significant period and pay regular rentals. You’re responsible for maintenance and can buy the forklift at lease-end, or extend the lease, keeping balance sheet flexibility.

Operating Lease

A rental agreement for using the forklift over a short or medium term, without ownership at the end.

Operating Lease

Operating Lease lets you rent the forklift for a set term, typically shorter than its full life. You return it at the end, avoiding ownership risks and depreciation, ideal for businesses with temporary or changing forklift needs.
