Can I finance a dump truck from Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist?
Yes! As long as you have a valid bill of sale or invoice, we can fund private seller purchases — even out of state.
Do I need a CDL to apply?
Not necessarily. If your dump truck is under 26,001 lbs GVWR, a CDL usually isn’t required. We also fund companies that employ CDL drivers.
What dump trucks qualify for 0% down?
Late-model dump trucks (under 7 years old), paired with strong credit and healthy cash flow, often qualify for zero down.
Can I finance a used dump truck?
Absolutely. Check out our Used Dump Truck Loan Guide to learn how to get approved for pre-owned units.
Can I finance in my state?
Yes! We offer dump truck financing in all 48 continental U.S. states.
