Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to lease a commercial ice machine?
Crystal Ice rental starts at $160/month. Size, type and site needs determine a written quote; this calculator's input is only an assumption.
What is included in an ice machine lease?
Rental includes machine, installation, standard scheduled PM every 6 months and repair parts/labor. Follow manufacturer instructions and assess extra cleaning needs individually. Two months paid up front, month-to-month, no setup/install fee and free pickup on cancellation. Filtration, bins and replacement availability are assessed in writing.
Is leasing an ice machine better than buying?
Compare your actual purchase quote, maintenance budget and repair risk with the monthly rental quote. The illustration does not prove that either option is always cheaper.
