Lease vs Loan

• Leases are based upon total cost of ownership, loans are based on the financial healthiness of the applicant
• Leases, by definition, don't have interest rates. Leases include fees such as taxes, documentation fees, title, and registration if applicable
• Leases have a fixed lifetime with fixed payments, loans determine a fixed interest rate for the lifetime of the loan
• Leases consider the collateral value of the asset and the revenue it will generate for the business
• Leases are a great option if you don't want to tie up credit lines or cash
• Leases may have possible tax benefits
• Leases (some) accommodate new businesses that would not qualify for traditional loan funding from traditional lenders
• Leases normally get approved very quickly and easier whereas loans typically take longer and are more difficult to acquire

Sometimes the leasing process can be a bit confusing. Here's a step-by-step list of how it works:

1. Customer submits leasing application online with their preferred leasing company
2. Lease application is reviewed and approved/disapproved usually between 1-12 hours. Each leasing company has different response times.
3. Sometimes there are minor stipulations to the lease approval. (Example: Proof of business. Clean Direct / leasing company will request this info from the applicant.)
4. Clean Direct sends equipment quote based upon customer's needs. We can include equipment, services, training and shipping costs if needed.
5. Customer confirms quote is correct.
6. Clean Direct / leasing company will send terms & rates choices to customer who makes final decision (rate is determined by # of months)
7. Clean Direct / leasing company sends lease documents to customer for review & signature. This is typically e-sign, electronic documents.
8. Customer sets up payment method with leasing company
9. Leasing company sends lease authorization and approval to Clean Direct to ship
10. Clean Direct prepares shipment and releases once lease is funded. Freight shipments are checked & double-checked for accuracy, wrapped, strapped and palletized. Pickup is scheduled
11. Shipping company picks up load and transports to customer.
12. Customer inspects pallet for damages and signs off on receipt of delivery.
13. Customer verifies receipt of equipment with leasing company
