Should I rent or buy a yard ramp?

Yard Ramps - Rent Or Buy?

Some vendors offer yard ramps with a rental option, but in the course of your rental you may decide that the ramp should be a permanent part of your operation. If you must rent, check with the vendor to see if they have an option that allows you to put the money you paid in rental fees toward the final purchase of the ramp. Renting may seem like a cost-effective option for yard ramps. but if you examine your needs carefully, you may discover ahead of time that the yard ramp should be purchased. You can save yourself a lot of time by purchasing up front after giving your operation a hard look. If you buy and later change your mind, selling the ramp to another company is always an option. If you do decide to rent, tell your vendor up front that you may wish to buy. They can get the necessary paperwork ready for you just in case.
