When You Can Skip the Deposit
Plenty of trailers are financed for the full price, especially newer trailers from a dealer, for buyers with steady income and a clean credit file.
A deposit is more likely to be needed for older trailers, private sales, heavily customised trailers, newer businesses and applicants with credit issues. A trade-in counts as a deposit too.
Even when you don't need one, a deposit lowers your repayments and total interest. Use the calculator to see the difference.

Common Questions
Yes for many trailer types. Popular semi-trailers, curtainsiders, horse floats and boat trailers from reputable manufacturers are commonly funded at 100% of purchase price with no deposit required.
A deposit is more likely to be required for older trailers, applicants with impaired credit, highly specialised configurations, or very high loan-to-value requests.
No. A balloon payment reduces your monthly repayments by deferring a lump sum to end of term — it does not affect the deposit requirement, though it can make ongoing repayments much more manageable.
