What are the terms to lease a mobile surveillance trailer?

We only lease our mobile surveillance trailers on a month-to-month contractual basis with no long-term contracts and no hidden fees.

We often get asked why we don’t offer units for sale. The reason is simple: we believe the leasing model offers you, the customer, the greatest flexibility, superior affordability, and guaranteed peace of mind. Our mission is to provide an all-in-one service, not just sell you a piece of hardware that you then have to manage and maintain.

Financial Flexibility: Control Your Budget

The initial purchase price for a high-tech unit that includes solar panels, dual PTZ cameras, the AI processing system, and the RTK GPS base station can easily run into the tens of thousands of dollars. By offering a straightforward monthly lease, we eliminate that prohibitive upfront capital expenditure.

  • Low Monthly Cost: Our rate is a single, predictable monthly fee (starting at $799 per month), making it easy to budget for and scale. This low cost often means you can secure your entire jobsite with two units for the price of one traditional security guard.
  • Operational Expense (OpEx): Leasing allows you to treat the cost as an operational expense rather than a depreciating capital expense. This can offer significant benefits for project budgeting and accounting.
  • No Long-Term Commitment: We use flexible month-to-month contracts. This is a huge advantage for project-based businesses. As soon as your construction job is finished, or your security requirement ends, you simply call us and we pick up the unit. You are never locked into a long-term obligation, allowing you to scale up and down precisely with your project timelines.

Comprehensive Service: Everything Is Included

When you lease a SunRoad Surveillance unit, you aren’t just renting a camera tower—you are subscribing to a complete, managed security service.

The monthly lease fee covers every aspect of the unit’s functionality and performance:

  • Maintenance and Repairs: If a camera needs servicing, a panel is damaged, or a component fails, we handle the repairs and replacements at no extra cost to you. You never have to worry about finding technicians or paying for expensive parts.
  • Software Updates: The AI and operating system are continuously updated and improved by our team. Your leased unit always has the latest, most effective security analytics and firmware.
  • Guaranteed Uptime: Since the cost of maintenance is on us, we have a vested interest in ensuring your unit is always running perfectly. We monitor the health of the system remotely, allowing us to proactively address issues and guarantee maximum uptime.

Why Purchasing Isn’t the Best Option

If you were to purchase the unit outright, you would be responsible for:

  1. The high upfront cost.
  2. Finding and paying for specialized technicians for any hardware failure or breakdown.
  3. Managing all software and AI updates yourself.
  4. Dealing with the equipment once your job is finished (storage, transportation, maintenance).

Our leasing model removes these burdens entirely, delivering complete security as a hassle-free service, allowing you and your team to focus 100% on running your project.
