FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Can I finance a grab lorry?

Yes. Grab lorries (a tipper with a hydraulic grab arm) can be financed. The grab is typically part of the financed asset. Rates are similar to standard tipper rates.

What is a hookloader vs a tipper?

A hookloader has a hydraulic system that lifts and loads demountable skips or containers. A tipper raises the fixed body. Hookloaders are financed similarly to tippers.

Do tipper trucks hold their value?

Used tippers in good condition in popular configurations (8-wheel aggregate, 26t construction) hold value reasonably well. High-mileage or heavily worn tippers lose value faster. We factor this into balloon HP recommendations.

Can a new construction company finance tippers?

Yes, though it is more challenging without trading history. Larger deposits and strong personal credit can help. We know which lenders consider construction startups.
