  While Yale® lift trucks are our main focus, we do offer financing and leasing options for other equipment sold through your local Yale® dealer.
6. Will YFS finance used equipment? top
  YFS does offer finance options for used Yale® lift trucks sold through your local Yale® dealer.

8. What is a Tax Lease? top
  Often referred to as a True Lease or an Operating Lease, a Tax Lease lets you pay only for the portion of the truck’s economic life you use.  The Lessor (YFS) will be treated by the IRS as the owner of the leased equipment for tax purposes.  See the Yale® Financial Services brochure for more detail.
9. What is the difference between a Capital Lease and an Operating Lease? top
  A Capital Lease is “on balance sheet” financing while an Operating Lease is “off balance sheet” financing.  For additional information, contact your accountant.
10. Can I incorporate a full maintenance contact with my YFS lease? top
  Yes, YFS has the ability to incorporate a full maintenance contract with your local Yale® dealer along with your YFS lease contract.  This enables you to make just one payment per month for both lease and maintenance.  Contact your local Yale® dealer for a full maintenance quote on a new Yale® lift truck along with a lease payment through YFS.
