Many professionals in the field of working at heights face the same question: is it more cost-effective to buy or rent an elevating platform? In this new article, we provide you with the keys to make the right decision - one that will save you money and best suits your needs. At KLUBB Group, we offer elevating platforms for sale (KLUBB France) and for rent (Delta Services).
What factors should be considered for an informed decision?
First and foremost, it is essential to assess how frequently you will use your elevating platform. If your needs are sporadic, opting for rental, which is more economical, may be wiser. Furthermore, renting provides financial flexibility by spreading the costs over time. This is advantageous for businesses looking to avoid a significant initial investment. Additionally, we recommend considering rental if your projects have a short duration, preventing you from committing resources to equipment that won't be used regularly. We strongly advise considering purchasing if you have specific customization needs for your equipment. This allows for meticulous customization of your platform by choosing each necessary option.
Buying: a profitable investment
Purchasing an elevating platform allows for customization based on individual preferences and business needs. It is a long-term investment that involves a relatively high initial cost but can be quickly profitable financially, as well as in terms of safety and efficiency. Buying also provides complete control over the equipment.
Renting: a flexible alternative
Renting an elevating platform offers professionals financial flexibility. It also provides the option to change models regularly, benefiting from the latest technological advances. Depending on the chosen rental contract, the included service offerings can be more or less advantageous for businesses. However, the cumulative costs are higher with renting, and equipment inspections are less frequent.
Moreover, there is no right or wrong decision. You need to evaluate your situation, considering your needs, budget, and the planned duration of platform usage. Our team is available to advise you on the most suitable alternative. For any inquiries, feel free to contact our sales team at +33 (0)1 60 95 12 47.
