Nine cubic yards of on-site capacity in a package that fits on a standard tandem chassis. That is the core of the ProAll Reimer E9's appeal for contractors who need real output without sacrificing access to tight urban lots or rural roads with load restrictions. The E9 sits at the practical entry point for operators moving up from trailer-mounted rigs or smaller batch setups, and its per-yard margin advantage over plant concrete is immediate and measurable from the first pour.
We finance ProAll Reimer E12 units and E9 units with the same flexible structure. Minimum transaction size is $50,000, our sweet spot runs from $100,000 to $150,000 and above, and approval on amounts under roughly $400,000 often requires only an application, not a full financial package. B and C credit is considered. We fund in about 1 to 2 weeks once the file is complete.
The E9 in the Field: What the Machine Actually Does
The E9 in the Field: What the Machine Actually Does
The E in the ProAll Reimer E-series designation stands for the electric-over-hydraulic control system that replaced earlier mechanical metering on older ProAll units. The E9 batches cement, aggregate, sand, water, and admixtures through a continuous auger feed, with the operator controlling slump and yield from the cab or the side panel. That real-time proportioning means a single operator can hit spec concrete on residential footings, decorative flatwork, and colored pours without pulling extra personnel to manage the mix.
At 9 cubic yards of capacity per load, the E9 handles most small-to-mid residential pours in one trip. A slab for a two-car garage runs around 6 to 8 yards depending on thickness. A standard residential footing package might total 4 to 5 yards. The E9 gets in, pours, and leaves without the drum truck's minimum-load penalty, which is the entire margin story on short pours.
The unit's electronic control system also keeps a data log of every batch by volume, mix design, and timestamp. For commercial accounts that require mix tickets and documentation, the E9 provides that record automatically. Commercial concrete contractors doing light framing pours or site utility work find the E9's documentation capability as valuable as the batching output itself.
The E9 body mounts on a variety of chassis options including Peterbilt, Freightliner, and Kenworth tandem-axle specs. Chassis compatibility is important in financing because lenders value the combined unit (chassis plus body) as a single asset, and a solid chassis spec improves the collateral picture considerably.
E9 Pricing and Loan Term Structures
E9 Pricing and Loan Term Structures
New ProAll Reimer E9 units typically price between $120,000 and $175,000 depending on chassis specification, optional equipment, and dealer location. Used E9 units in good condition, particularly those with recent auger refurbishment and control system service, sell landing between $65k and $110k depending on hours and age. Either price point is well within our standard transaction range.
Term lengths on E9 transactions typically run 48 to 72 months. A 60-month term on a $135,000 transaction at a competitive rate produces a monthly payment that most operators can cover comfortably from a few productive pour days per week. We structure the term to match the expected working life of the specific unit you are buying, not a generic number. Older used units get shorter terms; new units can support longer amortization periods without the collateral concern that comes with advancing a long loan against a depreciated asset.
For operators who want to preserve cash flow in the first year, we can discuss a step-up payment structure where months 1 through 6 carry a lower payment while the machine ramps into the work schedule. This is common for new-entry operators who need a bridge while they build their customer list.
An equipment loan gives you title from day one and lets you claim depreciation. An equipment lease keeps the balance-sheet footprint smaller and may reduce monthly cost if a fair market value buyout fits your long-term plan. We run both scenarios so you can compare before committing.
Operators Who Fit the E9
Operators Who Fit the E9
The E9 buyer tends to be a concrete contractor running 15 to 30 pours per month across residential and light commercial work. They are buying their first volumetric unit or replacing an older smaller-capacity machine that has limited their output. The E9 gives them enough capacity to handle a larger job alone while remaining nimble enough for the 3-yard driveway apron that would have required a special-order small load from a plant.
Septic and utility contractors also use the E9 extensively. Precast footings, vault encasements, pipe bedding, and lift station pads all require concrete delivered to sites that drum trucks either cannot reach or will not service below their minimum load threshold. Septic and utility contractors find the E9 particularly valuable in rural areas where plant proximity is a genuine logistical problem.
Pool and hardscape contractors are another strong user group. Shotcrete pours for pool shells, decorative concrete borders, and flagstone setting beds all use relatively small concrete volumes but demand quality and timing precision that a plant cannot guarantee. The E9 solves the timing problem entirely by batching exactly what is needed when it is needed. Pool and hardscape contractors often find the E9 pays for itself within a single busy season.
Credit and Documentation: What We Need
Credit and Documentation: What We Need
The E9 at typical price points fits within our application-only window for transactions up to roughly $400,000. That means no tax returns, no profit and loss statements, no balance sheets in the initial review. We ask for your business name, owner information, EIN, and a basic application. Soft credit pull follows; hard inquiry only happens at the time of approval if you want to proceed.
Operators with credit challenges are not automatically disqualified. B/C credit equipment financing is part of what we do. Lenders who specialize in mobile concrete equipment understand that the asset itself is productive, appreciable collateral in a niche market, which changes the risk calculus compared to general-purpose equipment finance. A larger down payment or a shorter term can offset a credit profile that would otherwise require a higher rate.
For amounts above the application-only threshold, or for buyers who want better rate pricing by providing more documentation, 3 months of business bank statements is the standard additional ask. Tax returns help but are not always required. We tell you exactly what the lender needs to get to approval before you start gathering documents.
