Frequently Asked Questions

Can I finance a used dump truck from Facebook Marketplace?
Yes. As long as we have a valid invoice or bill of sale, we can fund private party deals — including Craigslist and Facebook sellers.

Do I need a CDL to qualify?
Not always. If the dump truck is under 26,001 lbs GVWR, a CDL usually isn’t required. We also finance businesses where the owner hires CDL drivers.

What trucks qualify for 0% down?
Trucks under 7 years old, in good condition, with buyers showing 700+ credit and strong bank statements often qualify for no-money-down programs.

Can you finance in my state?
Yes! We offer dump truck loans in all 48 continental U.S. states.

What if I want to finance extra costs (taxes, warranty, etc.)?
We can often include taxes, registration, delivery, and warranties in the loan — especially if you're under 100% loan-to-value.
