Equipment Financing for Cleaning Businesses: when it matters most

Equipment financing for cleaning businesses fits best when a cleaning company needs to replace aging equipment before losing contracts, upgrade to commercial-grade equipment to bid on larger commercial accounts, or purchase a service van to add a new crew. Financing cleaning equipment preserves the working capital needed for supplies, staff, and insurance.

Equipment Financing for Cleaning Businesses: what to compare before you choose

Cleaning businesses should compare equipment financing against business lines of credit. Equipment financing (ownership) is better for floor scrubbers, carpet cleaning machines, and service vans — assets used daily for revenue generation. A business line of credit works better for covering supplies between contracts. For a specific cleaning equipment purchase, dedicated equipment financing is usually the better fit because the equipment itself secures the financing.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What cleaning equipment can be financed?

Equipment financing for cleaning businesses covers industrial floor scrubbers, ride-on scrubbers, pressure washers (hot and cold), commercial vacuum systems, carpet and upholstery cleaning machines, steam cleaners, window cleaning equipment, service vans and cargo vehicles, cleaning supply trailers, and all professional cleaning equipment — new or used.

Can a new cleaning business get equipment financing?

Yes. Equipment financing for new cleaning businesses is available through lendfloCapital. New janitorial companies, residential cleaning startups, and pressure washing businesses can qualify based on personal credit and equipment value — without years of cleaning business history. Many new cleaning businesses are approved and funded within 48 hours.

How much can a cleaning business finance for equipment?

Cleaning businesses can finance from $10,000 for a single piece of equipment up to $5,000,000 for a full fleet of service vans and commercial cleaning equipment. Most cleaning business equipment financing falls in the $15K–$150K range for a service van plus commercial cleaning equipment package. lendfloCapital works with cleaning businesses at all sizes.

Is equipment financing better than a business loan for cleaning equipment?

Yes, for most cleaning equipment purchases. Equipment financing gives cleaning businesses lower rates (the equipment is collateral), terms up to 84 months, and 0% down options. Business loans have higher rates and shorter terms. For a specific cleaning equipment need — a floor scrubber, service van, or carpet cleaning machine — dedicated equipment financing is the better financial choice.
