Outsource Your Communications Fleet Without Capital Outlay
Purchasing high-tier commercial two-way radios requires significant upfront investment, licensing administration, and continuous maintenance expenses for batteries, antennas, and chargers. Dialcom’s Dollar A Day fleet program eliminates these challenges by providing fully managed, commercial-grade equipment starting from $1/day per radio.
Designed specifically for seasonal businesses, multi-crew commercial contractors, and operational facilities across Simcoe County, this program allows you to treat critical communications as a predictable, tax-deductible operating expense rather than tied-up capital.
- Commercial fleets starting from $1/day per unit
- Full repair, tune-up, and battery replacement coverage
- Pre-programmed private commercial frequencies & licensing
- Rapid unit swap-outs at our Barrie service center
- Multi-unit 6-bank gang chargers available
- Available repeater integration via our 250ft Oro tower
