Since 1983, we have provided fast equipment leasing for small to mid-size companies throughout Canada. At Tanner, our focus is on service, competitive rates and fast approval.

Currently, 80% of Canadian small to mid-size businesses lease at least one piece of equipment, with 95% of those saying they would lease again. Such is the value of Equipment Leasing.

Why Should you Lease

Leasing Provides Total Financing - Leasing offers 100% financing, and unlike a bank loan, usually requires no down payment or equity investment. Taxes, service contracts and other soft costs not typically financed by a bank can be included in the amount of the lease. One or two monthly payments in advance are usually all that is required.

Manufacturer's Warranties and Guarantees - You make the arrangements as to price and specifications with the supplier you have selected. You retain all manufacturers' warranties and guarantees.

Lease Term - Lease terms are typically from two to five years... most of the time less than the useful life of the equipment. Nearly always this term is longer than a normal loan period from a borrowing source, resulting in lower monthly payments.

Retaining Cash on Hand - Most other financing demands a large down payment, deposit or compensating bank balance. With a lease you can quickly acquire use of the equipment you want without major cash outlay.

Simplifies Bookkeeping – One rental payment = one entry in your books. There is no need to keep depreciation schedules, tax records, or complicated cost schedules.

Balance sheet management - Because an operating lease is not considered a long-term debt or liability, it does not appear as debt on your financial statement, thus making your company more attractive to traditional lenders when you need them.
