Pfando: The alternative to borrowing your forestry vehicle

Are you in a financial bind and want to turn your forestry machine into cash quickly and easily?

With Pfando, you have found an alternative to the traditional pawn shop for your forestry machine, skidder or log skidder. Read here how the Pfando pawn shop alternative works.

Do you want to lend your forestry vehicle?

Better to Pfando - cash in 60 minutes & continue using your forest vehicle!

Unlike a traditional pawn shop, you do not trade in your forestry machine at Pfando. The sale & rent back option gives you the opportunity to continue using your skidder or forestry tractor, for example. So you don't have to do without seasonally important forestry vehicles just because your financial bottleneck doesn't take the season into account.

If you decide to turn your harvester into cash, first make an appointment with Pfando. Thanks to our extensive branch network, we also have a location near you. One of our experts for forestry and forestry vehicles will then come to your company to inspect and value the forestry vehicle. Once all the formalities have been completed, you will receive your money and continue to use the forestry vehicle.

Why is Pfando's service better than borrowing from a car pawnshop?

You're probably wondering what the advantage of the sale & rent back option with Pfando is compared to a traditional pawnbroker or bank loan. With a classic pawnshop, you hand over your forwarder to the pawnbroker, the loaned device is then stored there in the yard - you cannot use it until you pay back the money you borrowed. If you take your pawned item to a car pawn shop, you will have to accept both economic and social losses.

The advantage of the sale & rent back option is that you can, for example, turn the wood chipper into cash in the short term but continue to use it. This also means that your processes in your agricultural or forestry business are not disrupted or even suspended by a missing machine.

As your forestry machine remains in your company, you can bridge a financial bottleneck discreetly and without a Schufa entry. Neither your house bank nor your employees need to know about the financial squeeze. Neither do your family and friends.

At Pfando, specially trained staff will take care of your needs. So you don't have to worry that the service is not professional or that your forestry tractor will not be inspected by an expert. Take a look at the reviews of our satisfied customers and see for yourself!

No matter when your need for money becomes acute. We are available seven days a week to help you. Also in your area.

Better than any loan: instant cash & continue using your forestry machine!

As your forestry machine remains in your company, you can bridge a financial bottleneck very discreetly and without a Schufa entry. Neither your bank nor your employees need to know about the financial squeeze.

If you are planning to take out a loan from your bank in the near future, you are jeopardizing your credit rating if you ask for a loan now that you would only need for a short period of time. Instead, use Pfando's sale & rent back service.

Pfando's service is uncomplicated and unbureaucratic for you to use. In contrast to a traditional loan, you do not have to make a lengthy application for our service. We also do not check your financial history. To be able to use our service, you only need to own a vehicle that is registered for road use. Its value is checked by us and is decisive for your possible payout amount. Therefore, we are not interested in your personal credit report.

Which forestry vehicles can be used for the alternative deposit service?

If you own one of the following forestry vehicles or forestry machines, you can use Pfando's sale & rent back service.

• Harvester
• Wood harvester
• Forest harvester
• Crane harvester
• Tree harvester
• Forwarder
• Forestry tractor
• Back draft
• Carrying back tug
• Tow tractor
• Carrying back tug
• Skidder

When can you use the sale & rent back service for your forestry vehicles?

You can use our service whenever you own a forestry or forestry vehicle and you are registered as the vehicle owner. But that also explains our second requirement. Your forestry machine must be registered for use on the road.

Last but not least, the question of value is of course a key point if you want to use your tree harvester to bridge the financial gap. The newer the machine is and the better the condition, the more money we can pay you.

Our experts will therefore also come to you to inspect the vehicle in question and determine the mortgage lending value. You can also use this opportunity to select a different vehicle if your cash requirements cannot be covered by a particular machine. Our expert can also give you an answer to this question.

What do you need for your appointment with Pfando?

Once you have contacted us and made an appointment, you should prepare for the appointment with our valuation expert. Remember - once you have collected and compiled the necessary documents, the payment of the cash to you will be all the quicker and less complicated.

You should have the following documents to hand when our expert visits you for an assessment:

• Vehicle registration document
• Vehicle registration document
• All duplicate keys
• Insurance documents
