  • Should I lease or buy an ice machine for my company?
    Things to consider when deciding to lease or buy a commercial ice machine: BUYING: Do you have the funds to buy your machine outright, or will you have to factor in interest for a loan? Who will be in charge of the maintenance and do you know anyone who can repair the machine when needed? Will you hire someone for preventative maintenance and cleaning, or just wait until it needs repairs? What will you do if you decide the machine is too big or too small for your needs after time? LEASING: A leasing plan with Total Ice Solutions means we will help you determine the size and type of machines you need. Our leasing plans include preventative maintenance twice a year, as well as 24/7 availability for service calls if something goes wrong. We respond to service requests quickly and try to get out there as soon as possible, usually within hours, to fix your machine so you can keep your business running smoothly. Parts and service are included in your plan. If you decide you need a bigger or smaller machine after time, you can easily trade up or down to a machine that suits your needs.
