hi
 looking at Wfp, after a run in with gravity, and an unavoidable two month holiday.
was looking at buying, but brodex site put leasing in my head as an option.
obvious advantage lower output and easier tax write off.
just wondered pros / cons, and how everyony else went when starting.

The cheapest way for you to start is - Keep an eye on ebay,there is loads and loads of secondhand equipment on there for sale ie,poles,tanks,ro units,hoses,hose reels,pumps,etc.
Then when you can afford it slowly buy yourself new equipment.

I started off with a £1500 grant from Business link. I attended a business course there and got te grant. £25 well spent.
I bought a Ford Connect off fleebay for £4,000 and other bits and pieces which probs come to about another £2,000 and never looked back. However if I was just starting out then I would probably lease a van and pole system.

I wouldn`t lease if i were you it`s cheap enough to do it yourself if your ok at DIY,you really can fit 1 yourself with a very basic layout.I`m sure someone on here will post a diagram.
