Why Not Trade in for Your Next Upgrade?

As an arborist, it’s essential to keep up with safety and efficiency standards to succeed in your business. One effective way to stay on top of industry regulations and improve your operations is by trading in your MEWP. Trading in your old MEWP (Mobile elevating work platform) for new models doesn’t just improve your job quality; it also offers significant long-term financial benefits, making this upgrade easier than you might think.

Here’s why you should consider trading in for your next upgrade:

1. Boost Your Business Efficiency

Newer MEWPs offer advanced technology and improved performance that can increase the overall efficiency of your operations. Whether you’re working on trimming trees, pruning, or conducting inspections, modern MEWPs come with better functionality, making it easier to carry out jobs quickly and safely. By upgrading, you can ensure that your team has access to the best equipment, enabling them to work smarter, not harder.

2. Stay Compliant with Industry Standards

Industry safety standards are always changing, and any arborist business must comply. Using outdated equipment could mean you’re not keeping up with regulations. Upgrading to new MEWPs ensures that you’re fully aligned with the latest safety regulations, keeping your team safe and your business risk-free. Trading in your old equipment allows you to meet standards without spending too much, providing a cost-effective way to comply.

3. Financial Advantages of Upgrading

While the idea of investing in new equipment might seem daunting, it’s more affordable than you think—especially for smaller businesses. By being tax-registered, you can take full advantage of the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), which allows you to offset the costs of upgrading equipment. This means a significant portion of the expense can be written off against your taxable income, greatly reducing the financial burden of purchasing new MEWPs.

A combination of the AIA and trading in your old MEWPs makes upgrading more accessible, allowing smaller businesses to benefit from high-performance equipment without a massive upfront cost.

4. Reduce Long-Term Maintenance Costs

Old MEWPs often require more frequent repairs and maintenance, which adds up over time. When you trade-in for newer equipment, you’re investing in machinery that’s less likely to break down, saving you money in the long run. By upgrading now, you avoid the costly downtime that comes with equipment breakdowns, allowing you to complete jobs on schedule and keep customers happy.
