How do you define a bulldozer?
The bulldozer or dozer is one of the most important pieces of equipment on any construction site. This machine can be used for pushing large objects, excavate dirt and debris at a construction site or mining quarry. It has a large flat blade attached to the front which can be moved and lifted using its hydraulic arms. There are three main types of bulldozers: wheel, crawler and mini dozers.
Types of Bulldozers
Wheel Dozer
A wheel dozer is a versatile and mobile construction vehicle that can be used for projects in soft ground or sensitive surfaces. The tires on the bulldozer inflict less disturbance than tracks, so it’s an ideal choice if you want to work without damaging your target area too much. The tires also make it much easier to move and turn.
Crawler Dozer
The crawler dozer is considered the most common type of dozer. This machine has tracks and a ripper at its back, which make it well suited for rough terrain like muddy or slippery surfaces because traction will be necessary when operating this vehicle. Crawler dozers range in sizes from machines with 75 horsepower that are less than 20,000 pounds and those with 900 horsepower that weigh almost 240,000 pounds.
Mini Bulldozer
The mini-bulldozer is perfect for narrow areas or small lots. It’s smaller than a standard sized dozer, making it the ideal choice in situations where you need to get things done quickly and efficiently but have space restrictions.
Whether you are looking to finance and/or obtain any type of bulldozer then HAF is here to support your business. It is often more cost effective to finance or lease a used bulldozer in good condition with a low number of working ours.

Benefits of Bulldozer Finance
Asset finance is most commonly used to acquire hard assets. A hard asset is a tangible/physical asset with fundamental value that are normally held for the long term. Like recovery trucks they are often key to the businesses operations but are expensive in value. These are two of the key reasons why most businesses look to use a hard asset finance facility. There are also a range of benefits that come with this option:
Protect Cash Flow
Keep cash in the business and invest in areas that will produce a return on investment. Obtain the vehicle that is necessary for your business with little to no upfront cost.
Fixed Repayments
Perfect for financial planning and selecting a finance package that is affordable for your business.
No Large Upfront Cost
No need to invest large sums upfront, however this is an option if you wish to reduce monthly payments.
Quick Access
If you need a recovery truck urgently but don’t have the immediate cash available, finance allows you to obtain the asset immediately without having to wait for the cash reserves.
Access to Higher Spec Vehicles
No need to compromise on the vehicle you select. The difference in a newer or higher spec vehicle can often be a very small increase in monthly payments.
HAF Finance
Here we have the four agreement types used for recovery truck finance and all hard assets. Here at HAF, we will guide you through all options and help you select the most suitable for your business.
Finance Options
Hire Purchase
Hire Purchase (HP) are monthly rental instalments where at the end of the term you have the option to purchase the asset outright or simply return it. Payments can be structured to align with your cash flow which could mean a small upfront payment or larger to reduce monthly payments.
Finance Lease
A finance lease is a leasing agreement which involves renting the asset over an agreed period of 1-5 years. A popular method due to the significant tax advantages. At the end of the agreement, you have four options: Hand the asset back to us at HAF, purchase the asset outright, continue paying the monthly payments or take out a new lease.
Operating Lease
An operating lease is an agreement to use and operate an asset without the transfer of ownership. Often used for high value assets, the rental is at an agreed rate and time period. The rental will not cover the full cost of the asset, therefore at the end of the agreement a residual value is offered by the funder which allows you to buy the asset minus the lease rentals paid so far.
Business Contract Hire
Business contract hire is a popular finance option used for company cars. The vehicle is leased over an agreed period from 2-5 years. At the end of the agreement, the vehicle is handed back to the finance company. A simple agreement often used for brand new vehicles, sometimes used with no upfront fee just monthly instalments.
