But finding $3,000 upfront through operational expenses? That might be manageable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/ressources\/reasons-you-should-lease-your-wheelchair-accessible-van\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leasing offers a way<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to get a reliable vehicle on the road faster without waiting years to save up. Here\u2019s why that matters:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Rising costs:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Vehicles don\u2019t stay the same price. If it takes a year or two to save up, chances are the cost of a handi-transit van will have gone up significantly by the time you\u2019re ready to buy. Leasing allows you to lock in today\u2019s price and avoid future increases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Faster replacement:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Older vans are expensive to maintain and unreliable for passengers. Leasing gets you out of the cycle of endless repairs by putting a new van on the road now, not later.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Flexibility at the end of the lease:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Once the lease term ends\u2014typically around 5 to 6 years\u2014you can have the vehicle auctioned off or trade it in for a new van. This cycle helps keep your fleet modern and efficient.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What about the cost of leasing?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Yes, you may pay more over five years compared to purchasing upfront. But consider what you\u2019re saving: time, stress, and unpredictable price hikes. Plus, you\u2019ll be able to spread out payments, which feels much more achievable for many organizations than one large upfront expense.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leasing is about keeping your community moving with reliable handi-transit services right now<\/span><b>.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> With this option, you can avoid waiting for funding that may never come and focus on what matters most: delivering reliable transportation for those who need it most.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How much does it cost to lease a handi-transit van?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re wondering about the numbers, leasing a handi-transit van typically costs between $2,250 and $2,600 per month<\/span><b>. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that this is just an estimate, it varies, and is subject to change.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For organizations already juggling tight budgets, that might seem like a lot. But compared to the $202,000 upfront cost of buying a van outright, leasing spreads the expense out into manageable monthly payments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thinking this might still be out of reach? Many organizations and communities have found creative ways to make leasing work. One option is securing monthly donors to help cover costs. Imagine partnering with local businesses, healthcare providers, or even individual donors who care about supporting accessible transportation in your area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s how some organizations do it:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Community fundraising:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Hosting events or starting donation campaigns specifically to cover leasing costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Corporate sponsorships:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Partnering with businesses that see the value of supporting handi-transit services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Grants or subsidies:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Applying for local or regional funding to reduce the financial burden.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, the financial aspect of purchases requires getting creative and seeking community support. Leasing a handi-transit van can become a realistic solution even for organizations with the tightest budgets. It\u2019s a way to keep your services running without waiting years for funding to come through\u2014and without sacrificing reliability or safety for your passengers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How can leasing a van change your community?<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_43759\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-43759\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-43759 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/P3-with-Powered-Side-Entry-Ramp-04.jpg\" alt=\"Fourgon de mobilit\u00e9 accessible promaster avec rampe d\u00e9ploy\u00e9e.
