To avoid delays, make sure you meet these baseline requirements before applying:
650+ FICO credit score
2+ years in business
Valid driver’s license
Voided business check
3 months of business bank statements
Invoice or listing for the truck (from dealer, private seller, or auction)
Deals often stall when buyers forget key documents — especially the equipment invoice or proof of time in business. Submitting everything up front helps get you approved in 4 hours or less.

Here are the most common (and avoidable) reasons dump truck loan approvals get delayed:
Submitting blurry photos, missing pages, or personal-only accounts is a red flag. Lenders need full, legible business bank statements from the last 3 months.
If your LLC was just registered or you're using a DBA without proper paperwork, your file may get kicked back. Use official documents — or let us pull Secretary of State records for you.
An invoice shows the truck's value and where it’s coming from (dealer, private party, or auction). Without it, the deal goes nowhere.
Lenders fund businesses, not individuals. Using a personal checking account creates risk and often gets rejected. Always provide a business account.
A 650+ credit score is great — but unresolved tax liens, bankruptcies, or recent late payments can delay or disqualify your file. We offer soft credit pre-qualification so you know where you stand upfront.

Can I finance a dump truck from a private seller or Facebook Marketplace?
Yes. We fund private party sales — just make sure you get a clear invoice or bill of sale.
What trucks qualify for 0% down?
Used trucks under $60K with strong bank statements and clean credit profiles may qualify for zero-down financing.
Can I get approved if I just started my business?
Most lenders require 2+ years in business. If you’re just starting out, consider a co-signer or offer a stronger down payment.
Do I need a CDL to get approved?
You don’t need a CDL to finance the truck — but someone operating it will.

Once your docs are submitted, most deals are approved in 4 business hours or less.
