Funding for your situation
What decides whether a moving company with an open advance can add more funding, what a review compares, and a worked example.
✓ Checking what you qualify for does not affect your credit score.
An open advance changes which products fit a moving company, not whether the conversation can happen. Card and check payments at delivery, with deposits spiking on busy weeks. The daily or weekly debit is already part of that picture.
Merchant Fund Express is a funding marketplace: you apply once, and the file is matched to the structure that fits it. The sections below show what this situation usually costs, how a funder reads it, and what to prepare.
Equipment is part of the picture. A failure such as a truck transmission or a brake service can run $8,200 to $8,200 and interrupt revenue while it is down.
The documents that usually matter most for a moving company are a truck quote and insurance quote or invoice, alongside the bank statements.
Summer and month-end weekends carry most of the year. For a moving company, that rhythm decides when a funding request reads best and how it should be repaid.
What it looks like on the ground: summer bookings are full by April, and a second truck would convert the overflow.
These are the same factors described on revenue and deposit requirements and time in business. Merchant Fund Express walks you through how your own file reads before you apply.

What a review compares. The remaining balance, the share of deposits already committed and how the account has behaved. Read negative days and NSFs and second position funding.

Balance, debit and payment history, and what it financed: box truck.
Card and check payments at delivery, with deposits spiking on busy weeks.
Negative days, NSFs and the average daily balance, read against summer and month-end weekends carry most of the year.
Second position, renewal or refinance, depending on how much has been paid down.
A complete file is what makes a same-day decision possible. If something is missing, tell us and we will work around it.
Often, depending on position count and account behavior. Look at second position funding, renewals and MCA refinance. Merchant Fund Express reviews the file the same day it is complete.
A second position sits behind the first on the same revenue. A renewal comes after the first is substantially paid down. See first position vs second position.
Three months of business bank statements, the existing agreement or a payoff letter, and a truck quote.
The minimum FICO is 500, and better credit means better products and terms. See credit score requirements for how the tiers work.
