Yes, roll-on/roll-off containers 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 £5,000 to £80,000, and most deals are written over 12–60 months with a deposit of around 15–25%. 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 EligibilityRoll-on/roll-off containers bought for a hire or collection fleet are plant and machinery for capital allowances and generally qualify for Annual Investment Allowance, letting the cost be deducted from taxable profits in the year of purchase, subject to your total qualifying spend for the year. Confirm current treatment with your accountant before finalising the finance structure.
Waste management and skip hire operators running hook-loader lorries, alongside industrial and construction sites hiring one in for a defined project, are the main buyers. Container specification, open, enclosed or compactor-compatible, needs to match the hook-loader lorry that will handle it and any static compactor it will be paired with, so compatibility is worth confirming before ordering rather than after delivery. A waste carrier licence and, for specific or hazardous waste streams, additional permitting apply to the operator rather than the container itself. Replacement is generally driven by corrosion, floor wear and denting from repeated loading and transport.
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.
