About Skyjack
Skyjack is a Canadian maker of aerial work platforms, formed in 1985 and based in Guelph, Ontario, according to Skyjack. The company grew from a scissor lift design by Wolf Haessler in the early 1980s into one of the world's largest suppliers of scissor lifts. Skyjack also builds boom lifts and telehandlers.
Skyjack equipment on our list
Our eligible equipment list includes Skyjack scissor lifts such as the SJIII 3226 and 4626 and the SJ9250. Electric slab scissors like the 3226 are used indoors for maintenance, electrical and drywall work, while larger rough-terrain scissors work on construction sites.
How lenders view Skyjack lifts
Scissor lifts are core rental-fleet assets with a strong resale market, and Skyjack's reputation for simple, serviceable machines supports values. Lenders review platform height, power type, hours, battery condition on electric units and annual inspection status.
Rental fleets and contractors
Rental companies typically finance scissor lifts in groups and are assessed on utilization and fleet financials. Contractors buying for their own crews are assessed on their project pipeline. Dealer programs and independent lenders can both be compared, especially for used lifts.
How Skyjack equipment financing works
Most Skyjack purchases are financed with an equipment loan or a lease. A loan gives you ownership from day one, with the lender registering a security interest (PPSA in Canada, UCC in the USA). A lease keeps title with the lessor and can lower the monthly payment, with a buyout, renewal or return option at the end.
Skyjack equipment we help finance
Financing Skyjack aerial lifts
Aerial lifts, scissor lifts and boom lifts are financed by contractors and rental companies. Lenders look at platform height, power type, hours and inspection records. Rental fleets often finance several units at once, and lenders review utilization and rental revenue for those deals.
Skyjack aerial lifts on our eligible equipment list include Skyjack SJ9250 Scissor Lift, Skyjack SJIII 3226 Scissor Lift and Skyjack SJIII 4626 Scissor Lift.
What lenders check on a Skyjack lift
Lenders look at machine hours, service records, undercarriage or tire condition, and whether the unit is tied to contracts or a steady work program. Used machines with strong resale demand are usually easier to finance than specialized units.
Expect to provide a credit application, recent business bank statements, the dealer quote or bill of sale with serial number and hours, and financial statements or tax returns for larger amounts.

Tax treatment of Skyjack equipment
In Canada, power-operated movable equipment used to excavate, move, place or compact earth, rock, concrete or asphalt generally falls in CCA Class 38. Confirm the class for your exact asset with your accountant. With a loan, you generally claim capital cost allowance and deduct interest. With a true operating lease, lease payments are generally deductible instead. See the CRA classes of depreciable property. In the USA, Section 179 and bonus depreciation may apply; see IRS Publication 946. Always confirm with your accountant.
