Capacity Continuity for Carrier Fleets

PowerLease helps carriers protect owner-operator capacity, support driver-to-owner transitions, and grow without expanding the carrier balance sheet.

Owner-operator replacement isn’t working

The long-standing approach to sustaining owner-operator capacity is growing less reliable, as overlapping pressures are putting fleet continuity and day-to-day operations at risk.

Aging Fleets

Owner-operator fleets are aging out faster than carriers can replace them through traditional sourcing channels.

Rising Costs

Rising truck purchase costs are raising the barrier to entry, leaving traditional ownership economically out of reach for many drivers.

Credit Constraints

Stricter lending standards are reducing access to equipment financing and shrinking the pool of qualified owner-operators.

PowerLease helps carriers stabilize and grow owner-operator capacity without taking on equipment ownership risk.

What PowerLease Is — and Is Not

PowerLease is not a recruiting agency and not a traditional leasing provider.

It is a continuity platform designed to support carriers

Owner-operator
replacement cycles

Driver-to-owner
transitions

Off-balance-sheet
fleet expansion

PowerLease manages equipment and continuity risk so carriers can remain focused on operations.

How it works​

PowerLease operates as an intermediary platform that separates equipment financing from carrier operations while maintaining fleet continuity.

Operationally, little changes for the carrier.

Strategically, capacity becomes more predictable.

1

Equipment Management

PowerLease finances and manages the equipment portfolio, handling acquisition, maintenance oversight, and eventual redeployment.

3

Driver Pathway

Drivers receive a structured, supported path to ownership with clear terms and institutional backing.

2

Carrier Access

Carriers gain access to qualified owner-operators without balance-sheet expansion or direct equipment ownership
obligations.

4

Risk Management

Asset depreciation and redeployment risk is managed by PowerLease, not transferred to carriers or individual operators.
