Flexible Equipment Leasing for Your Business

Spread the Cost. Accelerate Your Growth.

We’re making it easier than ever for our customers to access the equipment they need – without facing major upfront costs.

Stephensons, in association with Shire Leasing (a leading UK Asset Finance company), offer our customers the option to lease equipment for orders £1,000 upwards, with flexible terms to suit your needs ranging from 2 to 5 years.

What is Equipment Leasing?

Equipment leasing lets you spread the cost of new assets over an agreed term, rather than paying in full upfront. You get immediate access to the equipment your business needs, while keeping your cash flow healthy and your options open.

Benefits of Leasing

Increased Choice Get the equipment you need and want, not just what your current cash budget allows.
No Major Upfront Costs Avoid large one-off payments. Leasing enables you to gain access to essential equipment whilst retaining cash in the bank for other purposes.
Tax Benefits Finance lease rentals can be 100% tax deductible against profits, depending on your business circumstances. We recommend seeking independent advice from your accountant for more information.
Fixed Monthly/Quarterly Payments Lease rentals stay the same throughout your agreement, making budgeting and forecasting easier.
Protect Existing Credit Lines Leasing doesn’t affect your bank loans or overdrafts, so you keep your financial flexibility.
Easy Upgrades At the end of your agreement, continue leasing or discuss how we can upgrade you to the latest technology to keep your business ahead.

A Smart Comparison: Cash Vs Lease

Lease Cash Purchase
Upfront Cost Low (first rental only) High (full amount upfront)
Cash Flow Preserved, pay monthly/quarterly Reduced, large sum outlay
Budgeting Fixed payment schedule One-off expense
Maintenance Responsibility lies with the lessee Responsibility lies with the owner
Credit Lines Unaffected May impact overdraft/loans
