What is Woodchipper Finance? 

Woodchippers and shredders are used across a wide variety of settings; from farms managing hedgerow clearance and tree surgery waste, forestry contractors processing timber residues, and arborists dealing with green waste. For businesses where this equipment is central to operations, having a reliable and capable machine is essential. 

Woodchipper finance makes it possible to bring this machinery into your business through a finance arrangement, paying for it in instalments over a set period rather than meeting the full cost upfront. At UK Business Finance, we work with lenders across our panel to arrange finance for new and used woodchippers and shredders, covering a broad range of sizes and specifications. 

If your business already owns a woodchipper and is looking to raise funds against it, asset refinance may also be an option worth exploring.

Benefits of Woodchipper Finance 

Protect your working capital: For farming business, cash reserves are used by a wide range of operational needs at any given time. Purchasing a woodchipper on finance rather than outright means the cost is not one single sum. Instead, it is managed through fixed monthly payments, leaving your working capital available for the day-to-day requirements of running the business. 

Generate capital from equipment you already own: Businesses that have a woodchipper or other assets on their books, owned free of any existing finance, may be able to use it as the basis for an asset refinance arrangement. The machine is purchased by a funder, leased back for continued operational use, and the business receives a lump sum in return. Once the repayment term concludes, ownership of the equipment goes back to the business. 

Tailored to your needs: A woodchipper finance agreement can be tailored to the financial requirements of your business. You can decide on how long you would like the finance to be spread over, ensuring the finance facility can sit comfortably within your budget.  

Access equipment that improves productivity and site efficiency: Commercial woodchippers vary considerably in output, power source, and feed capacity. Older machines can create bottlenecks on site, slow down clearance jobs, and increase labour time. Finance gives businesses a cost-effective way to invest in a machine that is better suited to the volume and type of work they carry out, without the need to fund the full purchase price from cash reserves. 

Know exactly what you will pay each month: Woodchipper finance agreements are based on fixed repayments, so there is no ambiguity about what is owed or when. From this point, the full schedule of payments is known in advance. This removes a layer of financial uncertainty and makes it straightforward to account for the commitment within the broader running costs of the business.

What finance can be used for woodchipper finance?

Woodchippers and shredders can be financed through a variety of arrangements to suit different business types and budgets. Hire purchase and finance leases allow the cost to be distributed across a structured repayment term, while asset refinance gives businesses the option to release value from equipment they already hold. Unsecured loans are also available for businesses whose requirements sit outside a straightforward asset purchase. 

UK Business Finance can help agricultural and forestry businesses find a finance solution that suits their needs. Whether you are purchasing new machinery or looking to raise capital from existing assets, our team will guide you through the process from start to finish.
