Where Transportation Insight Meets Flexible Financing

A Financing Partner That Understands Transportation Challenges

Transportation businesses face variable freight cycles, fluctuating fuel costs, and tight margins — dynamics traditional lenders may not fully account for. At Essex, we take a relationship-first approach, looking beyond credit scores to understand your business model, payment cycles, and growth strategy. That means: 

  • Custom terms and payment schedules to match your cash-flow patterns 
  • Fast approvals so you can secure equipment when opportunities arise 
  • Financing for used equipment — recognizing real-world fleet needs 
  • Refinancing and sale-leaseback options for unlocking capital from existing assets 

Our goal is to help transportation companies stay competitive, responsive, and prepared for market demands — without the delays and rigid requirements often found with traditional banks.

Grow Your Fleet with Confidence

  • Essex Lease Financial is more than a lender — we’re a strategic partner. Whether you’re replacing aging trucks, adding capacity, or modernizing your fleet to meet regulatory demands, our team builds solutions that fit how your business operates.

The Answers You Want To Know

We finance a broad range of transportation equipment, including highway tractors, vocational trucks, trailers, tankers, flatbeds, end dumps, and some specialized transport units. Financing is available for single units or entire fleets, whether you’re purchasing new or used equipment.

Transportation equipment financing allows you to spread equipment costs over time instead of tying up working capital. By aligning payments with revenue cycles, businesses can preserve cash for fuel, maintenance, payroll, and growth—without delaying equipment upgrades or fleet expansion.

No. While credit history is a factor, it’s not the only consideration. We take a practical approach by looking at your business model, cash flow, equipment value, and operating history. This allows us to support transportation companies that may not fit traditional bank lending criteria.
