Equipment included

Work & service trucks Merrit Capital may consider

Availability depends on the borrower, asset, seller, price and lender. Related attachments and upfits should be itemized on the quote.

  • Service-body trucks
  • Mechanic and lube trucks
  • Utility and bucket trucks
  • Cargo vans and upfitted vans
  • Contractor pickups
  • Crane and welder trucks
  • Mobile workshop units
  • Fleet replacement vehicles
  • Eligible permanent upfits

Permanent upfits should be fully itemized

Service bodies, cranes, compressors, welders, shelving and other installed systems can represent much of the truck’s value. A detailed completed-build quote is more useful than a chassis invoice alone.

Asset acceptance is not an inspection. Buyers remain responsible for condition, suitability, compliance and independent professional advice.
