Equipment Rental
Equipment Rental is an agreement between a financier and a customer whereby the financier buys the equipment on behalf of the customer and rents it back to them over a fixed period.
How does Equipment Rental work?
When using an Equipment Rental, the financier buys the equipment on behalf of the customer and rents it to them over a fixed period.
The customer simply makes fixed monthly rent payments, and at the end of the contract hands back the equipment to the financier.
