Copier Rentals in Denver

Now you know you are going to need a new copier in Denver, but you are not really wanting to commit to a $10,000 to $12,000 copier right now. You could also look at cheap copiers in Denver, but do you really want to deal with the bad quality? Ultimately, you may want to consider a copier rental in Denver! Why? Because you aren’t stuck in a long term copier contract, but you also don’t have to deal with a bad copier.

Copier rentals are perfect for locations where you may be thinking about opening a new office, but aren’t sure if it will be successful or not. Maybe you find that you are going to go ahead and have a large 6 month project. These are circumstances where copier rentals in Denver make sense. Who knows, maybe you are just going to be doing a show or a convention… These are all good times to get quotes on a copier rental.

When is a bad time? When you know you are going to be using the copier in Denver long term. This is when a copier rental in Denver is rather silly.

Copier Rentals in Denver – Not Always Smart

Renting a copier is a short term solution to the problem of needing another copier but not wanting to spend $8,000 to get one. With the newer technology from companies like Lexmark, where you can get a 40 page per minute copier for $1,000.00 it is sometimes silly to rent. Why? Rentals are expensive! Don’t get me wrong, we love to do short term copier rentals because there is good profit for us and for you, it is a simple solution to a problem you have. Generally, this expense is nothing compared to the myriad of other expenses making the copier necessary in the first place.

Just be aware that you don’t always have to “rent” a copier. There are some copiers out there which you can buy at the same price and then use the device at home or in an area of the company that needs some new equipment anyway. However, if you do need a copier rental in Denver, please call us!

Short Term Copier Needs — The Advantages and Disadvantages of Copier Rental in Denver

We have some unique clients who rent copiers from us for their events. Renting a Copier is a nice way to save thousands of dollars if the need is merely short term. We have a Real Estate client who only uses copiers a few times a year in the Denver area, and so for them it makes more sense to rent a copier rather than buying one to use 3 or 4 times a year. This made me think, what are the advantages and disadvantages of copier rental?

Advantages to renting a Copying Machine:

Fixed cost. You know exactly how much it will cost and spend much less than the unit would cost to buy.
There isn’t mechanical liability as the vendor builds that into the rental price
You aren’t responsible for moving/shipping/transporting a rented copier in most cases
It’s an easy way to add some short term productivity
It can be nice to have extra capacity for short term bursts, like this time of year for accountants and tax professionals (especially when the rest of the year is so light.

Disadvantages of Copying Machine Rentals:

Renting is going to cost a premium as the labor involved in transport as well as the pages are billed at a higher rate than if you bought the copier because it is such a short term investment.
Renting a copier can result in confusion if it is unfamiliar brand or a hard to use interface
Renting a copier is still a logistical pain (putting it on the network, signing a contract, etc…) so if it is just for a week or a day, it is rarely worth it (although we do work with some trade shows who only use our copiers for a day and it works well for them.
