Feller Buncher Financing

Finance tracked and wheeled feller bunchers with terms set inside undercarriage and saw-head life — new, used, rebuilt, and repowered. Representative example: a $550,000 feller buncher runs about $10,500/month.*

The Feller buncher Reality

A feller buncher is the most expensive machine on the job and the one that wears out fastest. Undercarriage and saw head are consumables measured in tens of thousands a year, not maintenance line items — so a term set as though the machine were a road grader ends with payments still owing on tracks that need replacing twice. We underwrite the duty cycle: term inside the undercarriage's life, with the rebuild treated as a cost of running the machine rather than a surprise.

Payment Structures

The differentiation: four ways to own the same equipment, engineered to your cash flow. Compare them side by side on our structures page.

Operating Lease

Off-balance-sheet treatment with end-of-term flexibility — return, renew, or purchase. Often the right answer when technology cycles or accounting outcomes drive the decision.

$1 Buyout Lease

Own the equipment for one dollar at term end. Fixed payments, full Section 179 eligibility, and a clean path to ownership.

Seasonal & Step Payments

Payments that follow your revenue curve — lighter in slow months, heavier in peak season, or stepping up as new equipment ramps to full production.

Usage-Based & As-a-Service

Payments tied to hours, output, or consumption. The category Elevex is defining: pay for what equipment achieves, not what it costs.

Common Questions

How are undercarriage and head wear handled in the term?

By setting the term inside the undercarriage's remaining life rather than the machine's nominal book life. On a high-hour purchase that usually means a shorter schedule — and it means you are not still paying on a machine whose running costs have overtaken its production.

Can a rebuilt feller buncher be financed?

Yes. Rebuilds and repowers are normal business in the woods, valued on the work documented and the hours since it was done. A properly rebuilt machine finances on the service life it actually has left.

Can I finance a used feller buncher?

Yes — used feller buncher financing is standard business, whether the unit comes from a dealer, an auction, or a private seller. We value working assets on condition and remaining service life, not a blanket age cutoff, and set terms the equipment can actually support.

Does a feller buncher qualify for Section 179?

Most business-use equipment placed in service this tax year qualifies for Section 179 expensing, financed or purchased outright — often meaning the first-year deduction outruns your first-year payments. Run your numbers on our Section 179 calculator and confirm specifics with your tax advisor.

How fast can feller buncher financing close?

Application-only decisions to $1,000,000 come back in minutes for qualified credits, and most deals fund within 24–48 hours of signed documents. Apply online with your quote to start.
