PIB TIP: RESEARCH LEASING. Before you lease a truc

Sep 28, 2011

PIB TIP: RESEARCH LEASING. Before you lease a truck, get a cost comparison between an outright purchase and a lease from different dealers. Have your accountant assess each one. Make your lease term as short as possible and know what happens at the end of the lease. If there are mileage limits, make sure they are well within the mileage plans of your operation. The Partners in Business program is produced by Overdrive and the consultants at ATBS, the nation’s largest owner-operator business services firm, and is sponsored by Freightliner Trucks.
