Work truck financing for trades, service fleets, and contractors

Work truck deals often include more than the base vehicle. Shelving, service bodies, compressors, welders, buckets, or contractor upfits can change the structure quickly. Merrit Capital helps Canadian businesses finance work trucks with a practical eye on the vehicle, the upfit, and the work it supports.

This page is built for trades businesses, field-service fleets, utility and contractor operators, and growing companies buying new or used work trucks across Canada.

Work truck financing FAQ

A few common questions we hear around this equipment category.

Do you finance used work trucks?

Yes. Used work trucks are common. Clear vehicle specs, VIN, mileage, seller details, and upfit information help.

Can installed equipment or upfits be included?

Often, yes—especially when boxes, shelving, service bodies, compressors, welders, or other installed items are itemized clearly.

Do you work with smaller trades businesses?

Often, yes. Smaller trades and service companies can be a good fit when the operating story and transaction details are clean.

What about cube vans or utility trucks?

Those can often fit as well. The key is how the truck is used in the business and how the package is documented.

What terms are typical?

Terms depend on vehicle age, upfit details, approval profile, and lender guidelines. Many files land in the 24–84 month range.
