Copier leasing in the Route 1 Corridor

The stretch of Route 1 running roughly from Trenton up through Princeton and into New Brunswick and Edison, which functions as a single office market even though it crosses several municipalities. Life sciences and research tenancy concentrate at the southern end; logistics and IT weight toward the north.

What offices in the Route 1 corridor are actually printing

The commercial base here leans toward pharmaceutical and life sciences, research, IT services and professional services, concentrated around Carnegie Center, Forrestal Village, College Road and Route 1 north to Edison.

Multi-site tenants are common along here, and the useful move is usually one agreement covering several addresses rather than separate leases per office. That consolidates the volume into a better click rate and puts every device on the same renewal date — which is worth more than it sounds when notice windows come round.

Before you sign anything

Three things are worth doing in this order, and none of them require talking to me:

Work out your true cost per page. The monthly payment is not the cost. Overage and a separately billed service charge usually account for a meaningful share of the bill, and nobody quotes the blended figure.
Find your notice deadline. Most agreements renew automatically unless written notice lands in a window that shuts months before the term ends. This is the single most expensive thing to get wrong.
Understand what a buyout figure contains. It is three or four separate things, and they are not equally negotiable.

Have me look at it

Three ways, cheapest first. All of them end with you knowing your real cost per page.

Call or text me with the invoice in front of you.It is a short call, not a pitch.
Or just send the invoice. That alone gets you your true cost per page and whether the allowance is sized right.
Send the lease schedule too and I’ll also find your notice deadline and read the terms. The schedule is only needed for the deadline.

What happens next: I read it and email you back a written summary within one business day. If I need anything else I’ll ask by email. No phone call unless you ask for one.

If the answer is that your current deal is fine, I’ll tell you that. I’d rather be the person who told you the truth when there was nothing in it for me.

How I get paid: the dealer pays me a commission on completed orders. You don’t pay me a fee. Ask me at any point what I make on your deal and I’ll tell you.

Why go through a broker rather than straight to a dealer?

A dealer rep carries a quota and one line card. I don’t carry a quota, and my job is to size the machine to your actual volume, negotiate the term and the click rate, and tell you when the deal in front of you is a bad one — including when the right answer is to keep what you already have.

I’m not an authorised dealer for any manufacturer. I place orders through dealers who are, and they handle install and service. What you get from me is the scoping, the negotiating and someone who reads the contract on your side of the table.
