Stacking and stockpile conveyors cost from around £15,000 for a short radial stacker to £90,000 for a long overland feed conveyor, usually financed alongside crushing and screening plant.
Yes, conveyors 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 £15,000 to £120,000, and most deals are written over 12-84 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.

Check EligibilityA conveyor is treated as plant and machinery for tax purposes, so it qualifies for the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting a business deduct the full cost from taxable profits in the year of purchase, up to the current £1,000,000 annual limit. Companies buying new, unused equipment may also qualify for full expensing, a 100% first-year deduction against Corporation Tax. These allowances apply where you own the asset, so they are available under a Hire Purchase agreement. Under a Finance Lease or Operating Lease you do not own the conveyor outright, so allowances are not claimed directly; instead the payments are generally deducted as a business expense against profits. Always confirm treatment with your accountant before committing to a structure.
Conveyors are bought by quarries, demolition recyclers and materials processing businesses to move crushed or screened material into stockpiles without repeated handling by loader or dumper, and they are usually purchased alongside a crusher or screener rather than as a standalone decision. Financing tends to follow whatever structure is used for the associated crushing or screening plant, since the equipment works as a set. Replacement is driven by wear to the belt, rollers and drive motor rather than a fixed age, and the used market is smaller and more specialised than for crushers or screeners, since conveyor length and configuration need to match a specific site layout.
Several of our 200+ lenders specialise in businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options exist. Checking your options here does not affect your credit score, because we do not run a credit search to match you. A lender will run their own checks only if you decide to apply.
