Equipment Financing by Industry

Since 1986, Essex Lease has financed the equipment behind Canada's construction, transportation, energy, and agriculture businesses — with underwriting that looks at your operation, not just your balance sheet.

Your Industry Isn't a Line Item. It's the Whole Picture.

A combine that earns its keep six weeks a year. A gravel truck that runs around the clock all summer and parks in January. A service rig whose utilization follows commodity prices. Traditional lenders squint at those numbers — we’ve been underwriting them for nearly four decades.

Every industry Essex serves gets financing structured around how that industry actually operates: seasonal payment schedules for agriculture, project-based structures for construction, fleet and owner-operator programs for transportation, and cycle-aware terms for oil & gas. Choose your industry below to see how we finance yours.

Built for the Industries That Build Canada

Construction Equipment Financing

Excavators, dozers, cranes, and aggregates equipment — financed on project-based structures that keep your fleet working between draws and through tight-margin seasons.

Transportation Equipment Financing

Semi trucks, trailers, and fleet growth — including used equipment and owner-operator financing for the businesses traditional lenders turn away.

Oil & Gas Equipment Financing

Service rigs, pressure trucks, and field equipment — financed by a team that understands utilization cycles and structures terms around them.

Agricultural Equipment Financing

Tractors, combines, and seasonal cash flow that doesn't match bank timelines — payment schedules built around harvests, not quarters.

Don't See Your Industry?

These four are where we spend most of our time, but they’re not the whole story. Essex also finances equipment for forestry, mining, aggregates, manufacturing, and waste & recycling operations across Canada. If your business depends on equipment, there’s a good chance we’ve financed something like it — and if we haven’t, we’d like to hear about it.

Every Industry. Every Province.

Wherever your equipment works, so do we. Essex provides equipment financing and leasing across Canada, with dedicated teams serving Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario.
