Spread the cost of commercial tumble dryers from £1,600 to £50,000+ with flexible finance options. HP, lease, or refinance
Yes, commercial dryers are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £1,600 to £50,000, and most deals are written over 12–60 months with a deposit of around 10–20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Commercial tumble dryers are moveable plant and machinery and generally qualify for Annual Investment Allowance, letting the cost be deducted from taxable profits in the year of purchase. HP agreements let you claim capital allowances directly; lease payments are deducted as a running cost instead. Any ventilation or gas supply work needed to install a dryer is treated separately, as it becomes part of the building once fitted.
Commercial dryers are financed alongside washing machines in most cases, sized to match the washer capacity and daily throughput they will be paired with, since an undersized dryer creates a bottleneck regardless of how fast the washer cycles. Gas-fired dryers are more common than electric in higher-volume settings such as laundrettes and hotel laundry rooms because gas heating is generally cheaper to run at scale, though electric dryers remain the standard choice for smaller, lower-volume installations where a gas supply is not already present. Ventilation is the main installation consideration for a commercial dryer, since it needs to be ducted to the outside, which is worth planning for before ordering, particularly in a leased unit where new ducting counts as an alteration to the building.
Some specialist lenders consider businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options may be available. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender.
