Truck fleet acquisition and rebuilds
Fund front-load, rear-load, side-load, and roll-off truck acquisitions or rebuilds.
Trucks Cost Six Figures. Routes Take Capital to Build. Get Funded.
A working capital line of credit up to $1.5M for waste haulers. Fund truck fleet, bin inventory, route expansion, and the operational capital that scales the business.
Capital sized for the waste hauling business.
Waste management and trash collection is one of the most capital-intensive small business categories in commercial services. A new front-load or roll-off truck routinely crosses $250,000. Bin and container inventory ties up six figures. Landfill tipping fees, fuel, and DOT compliance hit weekly. Route expansion requires investment ahead of revenue. The recurring revenue nature of the business is attractive, but the upfront capital required to acquire trucks, stock bins, and mobilize routes is substantial.
Commercial Capital Connect provides waste management operators a working capital line of credit up to $1.5 million with interest-only options. Fund a fleet addition. Stock container inventory. Mobilize a new route. Acquire a competitor route. Same-day approvals and no daily debits to disrupt the cash flow of a recurring revenue business.
