Used logging equipment financing
Older equipment can still make sense when the transaction makes sense.
A used machine should not be dismissed simply because the model year is older. Logging Finance evaluates the complete transaction—the equipment, purchase source, business profile and proposed structure—to build a monthly payment path when the deal fits.

Why Logging Finance
Age matters. It is not the only thing that matters.
Traditional financing can become difficult as equipment gets older or more specialized. Our approach starts with the specific unit and the business case instead of applying a single model-year rule to every transaction.
Private sellers + auctions
Used equipment often changes hands outside a dealer lot, and those purchase sources can be considered.
Time to shop
Qualified approvals may remain open for up to 90 days while you locate the right unit.
Term flexibility
Available structures depend on equipment age, transaction details and credit profile.
Simple by design
From machine to monthly path in three steps.

FAQ
Questions about used logging equipment financing.
Every transaction is different. These answers explain the general path; final terms depend on underwriting, equipment and program requirements.
How old can logging equipment be and still be financed?
There is not one universal model-year answer for every transaction. Equipment age, condition, type, purchase price, seller and business profile all contribute to the final structure.
Can I finance used equipment from a private seller?
Yes. Private-party purchases can be considered with appropriate documentation and approval.
Can I finance used logging equipment bought at auction?
Yes. Auction purchases can be considered, subject to equipment review, documentation and underwriting.
Do used equipment terms differ from new equipment terms?
They can. Available term length and structure depend on the specific machine and complete transaction.

Qualified approvals may remain open for up to 90 days while you shop for the right equipment.
