Trucks We Finance

Flatbed Truck Financing

Flatbeds get bought by trades and haulers who need to load from the side or the top instead of the back. Landscapers, steel and lumber haulers, equipment movers and construction outfits all end up in this category. Prices run from modest straight-truck flatbeds up to full Class 8 flatbed tractors, which is why the cash needed at closing spreads so widely here.

What Matters On A Flatbed Truck Deal

1

The lender reviews the specific truck as part of the transaction, including year, make and model, mileage, truck type and specifications, and on a flatbed the bed or body configuration is part of those specifications.

2

A flatbed straight truck can land near the bottom of the $21,000 to $145,000 range, which makes it one of the more affordable ways to start. An established business is typically 30% down and a startup is typically 40% down with 2 years of industry experience.

3

The truck must be purchased from a licensed dealer and there is no minimum credit score. The trades and hauling examples on this page are educational context only, so you can independently confirm the truck fits the work you plan to perform.
