Crane Truck Loan Requirements

The Fastest Way to Know If You Qualify

If you’re a contractor or business owner in the market for a crane truck, you don’t want to waste time. You want to know exactly what it takes to get approved, so you can line up the funding and close the deal—fast.

This guide breaks down the key crane truck loan requirements we use to qualify buyers. If you meet these criteria, we’ll move quickly to get you funded—no tax returns, no fluff, no hard credit pull.

Credit Score Requirements

Your personal credit score is one of the most important factors in getting approved. Most lenders (including us) use it to assess repayment history and risk.

  • 650+ FICO is our typical minimum

  • 700+ may qualify for better terms, lower rates, or zero-down deals

  • Soft credit pull only to prequalify—no impact on your credit score

  • No hard inquiry unless you choose to move forward

Even if you’re just under 650, we may still be able to help—especially if your business has strong cash flow or the truck has good resale value.

Time in Business

Established businesses are more likely to be approved because they’ve proven they can operate and generate consistent income.

  • 2+ years in business is strongly preferred

  • Startups (6–24 months) may be approved on a case-by-case basis

  • Strong personal credit or contracts in place may help offset short business history

  • We finance LLCs, corporations, and sole proprietors

If you’re unsure, apply anyway—our team can review and offer guidance based on your exact setup.

Revenue Requirements

The second most important factor after credit is cash flow. We want to know you can handle the monthly payments without stress.

  • $15,000/month in business revenue is our typical minimum

  • Higher revenue = more flexible terms and lower down payment

  • We verify using a recent business bank statementno tax returns required

Whether you’re a one-truck operator or managing a small fleet, consistent revenue is key to fast, easy approval.

Entity Type

To qualify for a commercial loan, your business must be a legal entity—not just a personal buyer.

We accept:

  • LLCs

  • Corporations (S-Corp, C-Corp, Inc.)

  • Sole Proprietorships with EIN

You’ll also need:

  • A business checking account

  • An EIN (Employer Identification Number) for loan documents and fund transfer

We work exclusively with businesses—not consumers. That’s why we keep our underwriting lean, efficient, and focused on the needs of contractors.

Documents Needed

We’ve simplified our process to save you time. Here’s what you need to apply:

  1. Crane Truck Listing or Invoice

    • From a dealer or private seller

    • A PDF, photo, or website link works

  2. Basic Business Information

    • Legal name, address, EIN, years in operation

    • Contact info and business type

  3. Driver’s License

    • For the owner or signer on the loan

  4. Business Bank Statement (last 90 days)

    • Used to verify revenue—no tax returns or financials needed

That’s it. No tax documents, no profit-and-loss statements, and no chasing down accountants.
