Dirt work runs on cash

Excavation is one of the most cash-hungry trades out there. Diesel, hauling, operator wages, tooth and track wear, and the occasional blown hydraulic line all hit before the site work is paid. Many jobs pay on draws tied to milestones, and weather can push those milestones back. A merchant cash advance gives you a lump sum based on the sales already flowing through your business, with repayment drawn from future receipts.

Is an advance the right fit?

A merchant cash advance tends to suit excavation businesses with regular receipts, such as companies doing a steady stream of smaller jobs like septic installs, utility trenching, driveway prep and residential site work. If your income comes mostly in a few large progress payments, other products may match your cash cycle better. We will tell you which one makes sense.

What we look at

No tax returns are required, and sole proprietors can apply. The application takes about 5 minutes.

Other excavation financing options

If the need is a machine, equipment financing for excavation ties the cost to the asset. For recurring costs, compare a business line of credit or working capital. The line of credit vs. merchant cash advance guide lays out the tradeoffs side by side.
