Winter in the Midwest is unforgiving, and nursing aging equipment through a January deep-freeze on I-80 is a massive operational risk.

Before the temperatures drop, it's time to evaluate your fleet's readiness. A Full-Service Lease (FSL) is one of your best defenses against the brutal Iowa winter. By partnering with Brown NationaLease, you get predictable monthly costs, expert seasonal winterization, 24/7 emergency breakdown support, and access to modern, cold-weather-ready equipment... all without the headache of managing your own maintenance shop!

A structured preventative maintenance plan shifts your shop strategy from reacting to breakdowns to controlling your schedule and costs. From routine PMs and tire programs to keeping equipment DOT-ready, handling maintenance proactively protects your drivers and your bottom line.
