Ending a Copier Lease
Before yo sign a copier lease it is always important to make sure you understand all of it. Many times people end up paying more than they need to because they agree to something they don’t understand. It’s common for people to read about the beginning and middle of their lease, but never pay much attention to the end of their lease. Ending a copier lease is just as important as understanding your responsibilities during the lease. You must do your part to make sure you know what you need to do when ending a copier lease.
There are three distinct things to look for when ending a copier lease:
- Checking for automatic rollover in your lease
- Figuring out who will ship your copier
- Know how to package all your equipment
Don’t assume that your leasing company is going to take care of everything for you. They always want to keep your lease going and work with you in the future. Looking for automatic rollover is key unless you want to continue your lease. If you have automatic rollover then you will need to cancel your lease before the end time comes.
You will also likely be responsible for shipping the copier. Look into shipping companies early and try to figure out the best plan of attack. This gives you more time to weigh options and make a smart decision.
Finally, avoid fees by packing correctly. Some things like toner will have specific ways that you need to pack your equipment. Follow these rules or you could face fines.
