The practical answer
DCF publishes a completed £800,000 finance lease for 20 used tractor units for a southeast haulage business.
The case study describes a 36-month term, a 5% deposit and the use of more than five funders for that particular requirement. The vehicles supported a new contract and brought subcontracted work in-house.
Those terms are historical evidence, not a current offer or benchmark for every fleet. A new proposal needs its own vehicle schedule, financial assessment, delivery plan and lender decisions.
Commercial finance is subject to status, lender approval and the specific asset and transaction. The right structure depends on the complete circumstances of the business.
What should I do next?
Have the asset details, supplier information and an outline of what the business needs ready. DCF can then discuss the requirement and identify which lenders may be suitable.
