Leasing a road freight is easy

With leasing, you will get one aggregated invoice per month. You don’t have to capitalise the investment on the balance sheet or depreciate the asset. Along with high predictability, this is the main reason why most companies choose to lease their means of transport.

We offer both security and knowledge

We work with most vehicle suppliers, and they know us well. This provides security for the supplier as they know our procedures and are guaranteed a quick settlement, for example, when the car or truck is delivered.

FAQ about leasing a road freight

What road freight can I lease?

Most transport can be leased. Here are a few examples:

  • Truck
  • passenger vehicle
  • van
  • semi-trailer truck
  • trailer
  • tractor
  • extension
  • crane
  • bus
  • forklift
  • terminal tractor.
What happens when the lease period ends?

At the end of the term of the lease, you can choose to:

  • continue the term of the lease;
  • ask to buy the item;
  • return the item.

If there is an agreed residual value at the end of the term of the lease, the item must be returned to the party that has guaranteed the residual value. This is usually the supplier/dealer or DNB.

How do I find out what the outstanding balance is on a lease?

Leasing costs don’t have to be recognised in the accounts as outstanding debt in the same way as a loan. The vast majority of companies don’t need to show the lease agreement on the balance sheet.

Large companies (PLCs) must show the lease obligation and value of the item on the balance sheet. This is usually calculated as a future lease obligation for the remainder of the lease period, discounted to net present value.

What is leasing with a residual value?

Leasing with a residual value means that someone provides a guarantee for the value of the item after the term of the lease. Residual value means that the lease amount is significantly reduced because the item must be returned to the guarantor at the end of the term of the lease.

The advantage of residual value is that the guarantor takes over the risk of fall in value during the term of the lease. Leasing with a residual value means that someone provides a guarantee for the value of the item after the term of the lease. Residual value means that the lease amount is significantly reduced because the item must be returned to the guarantor at the end of the term of the lease.

Can the agreement be terminated during the lease period?

Yes, you can terminate it or buy the item outright during the period.
