A fleet sale-leaseback allows you to sell your owned fleet vehicles to Element and lease them back through a customized plan. It gives you immediate access to your vehicles’ equity while maintaining operational continuity.
How does a sale leaseback work?
A sale leaseback starts with you selling your owned vehicles to Element at fair market value. Once the sale is complete, you lease those same vehicles back under a tailored agreement that fits your operational and financial needs.
The process is seamless—Element handles the paperwork, titles, and logistics—so there’s no disruption to your fleet operations. You continue to use the vehicles just like before, but now with improved cash flow, predictable lease costs, and access to our full suite of fleet services. It’s a smart, streamlined way to turn fleet assets into working capital while staying fully mobile.
How can fleet sale leaseback benefit my business?
Sale leaseback improves liquidity, shifts vehicle costs to OpEx, and provides a tax-efficient way to fund other business priorities. It’s also a great way to simplify fleet management and refresh your vehicles over time.
