Estimate Your Monthly Payment

Before committing to a boom truck purchase, it’s smart to see how different loan amounts, interest rates, and terms affect your payment. Our Boom Truck Loan Calculator makes it easy to run the numbers in seconds.

Simply enter:

  • Truck Price ($): The total cost of the boom truck you’re looking to finance.

  • Interest Rate (%): Your estimated annual percentage rate (APR).

  • Loan Term (Months): How long you want to take to repay the loan.

Click Calculate to instantly see your estimated monthly payment.

Why Use the Payment Calculator?

  • Plan your budget before applying

  • Compare loan scenarios side-by-side (e.g., shorter term vs. longer term)

  • See the impact of interest rates on your total cost

  • Decide if financing or leasing is a better fit for your cash flow

Pro Tip:
If you’re unsure of your interest rate, use 7%–18% as a range — this covers most borrowers we work with. For the loan term, remember that shorter terms mean higher monthly payments but lower total interest, while longer terms lower your monthly cost but may increase total interest paid.

Should You Lease or Finance Your Boom Truck?

Choosing between a boom truck loan and a capital lease comes down to your long-term goals, cash flow, and how you plan to use the equipment.

Boom Truck Loan (Financing)

Best if: You want to own the truck outright and use it for many years.

Pros:

  • You own the truck once the loan is paid off

  • Can finance new or used boom trucks

  • Builds equity in the asset

  • Lower total cost over the life of the loan compared to leasing

Consider if:

  • You plan to keep the boom truck for 5+ years

  • You want full control over modifications and usage

  • You’re focused on building long-term equity in your equipment

Boom Truck Lease (Capital Lease)

Best if: You want lower monthly payments or plan to upgrade often.

Pros:

  • Lower upfront cost than buying outright

  • Lower monthly payments compared to financing in many cases

  • Easier to upgrade every few years as technology and business needs change

  • May have tax advantages depending on how it’s structured

Consider if:

  • You want to preserve cash flow for other business expenses

  • You plan to swap or upgrade trucks regularly

  • You’re using the boom truck for a specific short-term contract or seasonal work

Not sure which is right for you?
We offer both financing and leasing options — and we’ll walk you through the numbers so you can choose the structure that makes the most sense for your business, tax situation, and long-term goals.

Who Qualifies for Boom Truck Financing?

We work with established business owners who are ready to grow their fleet — not just fill out a form and hope for the best.

Ideal Borrower Profile

CriteriaWhat We Look For
Time in Business2+ years preferred
Credit Score650 or higher
Bank Balance$5,000+ average ending balance (last 3 months)
LicenseCDL or relevant to truck type
Equipment InfoInvoice, bill of sale, or online listing link

Why These Requirements Matter

  • Time in Business: 2+ years shows lenders you’ve weathered market changes and have a proven track record.

  • Credit Score: 650+ opens doors to lower interest rates, longer terms, and smaller down payments.

  • Bank Balance: $5K+ average ending balance gives confidence you can manage monthly payments and operating expenses.

  • License: A valid CDL (or relevant certification) ensures you can legally operate the boom truck.

  • Equipment Info: Providing the invoice or listing link speeds up underwriting and helps us confirm the truck’s value.

Pro Tip: Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, we may still have a program for you — especially if you can provide a larger down payment or have strong industry experience.

Boom Truck Financing for Start-Ups

Even if your business has been operating for less than 2 years, you can still qualify for boom truck financing through our start-up friendly programs. These are designed for operators who have the skill, industry experience, and contracts — but not yet a long business credit history.

Minimum Requirements for Start-Up Boom Truck Financing:

  • Industry Experience: At least 18+ months of relevant work (construction, utilities, signage, tree service, material handling, etc.)

  • Down Payment: 20% or more of the truck’s purchase price

  • Interest Rates: Typically 12%–20% depending on credit score, equipment age, and down payment size

  • Maximum Financing Amount: Based on your credit, time in industry, and monthly cash flow (often higher than bad-credit programs)

Best For:

  • Owner-operators leaving a company job to start their own business

  • Contractors winning their first major project requiring a boom truck

  • Businesses wanting to build commercial credit history quickly

Pro Tip:
Approvals move faster when you can show steady income from signed contracts, W-2 work in the same industry, or recurring service agreements. Providing a clear business plan and job pipeline can also help secure better terms.

Boom Truck Financing for Bad Credit

A credit score below 625 doesn’t automatically shut you out of boom truck financing — but lenders will expect stronger compensating factors to approve your deal.

Minimum Requirements for Bad Credit Boom Truck Financing:

  • Down Payment: At least 50% of the purchase price (larger down payments improve approval odds)

  • Interest Rates: Typically 15%–30% depending on your credit profile, truck condition, and cash reserves

  • Maximum Financing Amount: Around $45,000 for most programs

  • Truck Age: Newer units are generally easier to approve, but we can review older trucks in good condition

Best For:

  • Experienced operators who’ve had past credit challenges but maintain steady work

  • Businesses with strong cash flow but a low credit score

  • Buyers looking to purchase a lower-priced boom truck without draining their cash reserves

Pro Tip:
The bigger your down payment, the more leverage we have to negotiate a lower interest rate — even in bad credit situations. If you can also show consistent income or signed contracts for upcoming work, you can further strengthen your approval chances.

Boom Truck Types We Finance

At TruckLenders USA, we finance all major boom truck types — whether you’re buying new or used, from a dealer, private party, or auction.

Common Boom Truck Types We Fund:

  • Telescopic Boom Trucks – High-reach equipment ideal for heavy lifting and long-distance material placement.

  • Articulating Boom Trucks – Also called “knuckle boom” trucks; perfect for tight spaces and complex lifts.

  • Insulated Aerial Boom Trucks – Designed for electrical utility work, providing safety around high-voltage lines.

  • Material Handler Boom Trucks – Built for moving heavy loads quickly and efficiently on job sites.

  • Utility Service Boom Trucks – Versatile trucks for maintenance, signage, lighting, and service work.

Purchase Sources We Finance:

  • New or used — truck condition and age considered in approval terms

  • Dealer inventory — fast approvals with an invoice upload

  • Private party sales — yes, as long as we can verify title and ownership

  • Auction purchases — online or in-person, just send us the auction link or winning bid slip

Pro Tip: If you’re buying a used boom truck, have the year, mileage, and condition details ready. Providing this upfront helps us move your file through underwriting faster — sometimes with same-day approvals.

Save on Taxes with Section 179

In 2025, you may be able to write off up to $1,250,000 of your boom truck purchase in the first year — even if you finance it instead of paying cash.

Why It’s Smart to Use Section 179

  • Keep your cash flow strong – finance the truck and still get the full deduction

  • Take a large tax deduction now – reduce this year’s taxable income

  • Own or lease and still qualify – Section 179 applies to both loans and leases

How Section 179 Works for Boom Trucks

2025 DeductionWhat It Means
Section 179 limitUp to $1,250,000 for qualifying equipment (including boom trucks)
Bonus depreciationAdditional 40% deduction on remaining cost basis (after Section 179)
Business useMust be used more than 50% for business purposes
Financing eligibleLoans and leases both qualify for the deduction

Example: Financing a Boom Truck in 2025

Let’s say you finance a $150,000 boom truck:

  • You can deduct the entire $150,000 this year under Section 179, even though you’re making monthly payments.

  • This could save you tens of thousands in taxes while still preserving your working capital for payroll, fuel, and growth.

Pro Tip: Many construction, utility, and service companies use Section 179 at year-end to upgrade or expand their fleet before the deadline. Acting before December 31 ensures your boom truck qualifies for this year’s tax deduction.

Boom Truck Financing FAQs

Q: What credit score do I need to finance a boom truck?
We recommend a credit score of 650 or higher to qualify for the most competitive rates and flexible terms.
If your score is slightly lower, we can often still help — especially if you have strong cash flow, a sizable down payment, or long-term industry experience.
For scores below 625, we also have bad-credit programs that may require a larger down payment.

Q: Can I finance a used boom truck?
Yes. We finance new and used boom trucks purchased from:

  • Licensed dealerships

  • Private sellers

  • Auctions (online or in-person)

We simply need to verify the truck’s details (year, make, model, condition, mileage) and confirm that the title can be transferred. Used trucks in good condition are often easier to approve and can help you secure a lower monthly payment.

Q: How long does boom truck financing take?
Our streamlined process means you can often get funded in as little as 1–3 business days after approval.
Typical timeline:

  1. Submit your application and documents — we review within 24 hours.

  2. Receive your approval terms.

  3. Sign the paperwork electronically.

  4. Funds are released to the seller, and you can take delivery of your truck.

Q: How much down payment will I need?

  • Strong borrowers (650+ credit, 2+ years in business, $5K+ monthly bank balance): as low as 0%–10% down

  • Start-ups: typically 20% or more

  • Bad credit programs: 50% down is common

The higher your down payment, the stronger your approval odds and the more favorable your rate.

Q: Can I finance multiple boom trucks at once?
Yes. If your business meets cash flow and credit requirements, we can structure financing for multiple units in one deal, whether for fleet expansion or replacing older trucks.

Q: What documents do I need to apply?

  • 3 months of business bank statements

  • Driver’s license or CDL (if required for your truck type)

  • Invoice, bill of sale, or listing link for the boom truck

  • (For start-ups) Proof of relevant industry experience

Q: Can I lease instead of financing?
Absolutely. Leasing may be a better option if you want lower monthly payments, prefer to upgrade every few years, or need the boom truck for a specific contract period.
We’ll walk you through both leasing and financing options so you can choose the best fit.

Q: Do you work with all types of boom trucks?
Yes — including:

  • Telescopic boom trucks

  • Articulating boom trucks

  • Utility service boom trucks

  • Material handler boom trucks

  • Insulated aerial boom trucks

Whether you’re buying new or used, from a dealer, private seller, or auction, we can structure a deal that works.
