Truck Finance for Business Owners: What You Need Before Applying

Truck finance can help transport operators and businesses purchase or upgrade vehicles without using large amounts of working capital.

What can be financed?

Truck finance may cover:

  • Prime movers
  • Rigid trucks
  • Trailers
  • Tippers
  • Refrigerated trucks
  • Commercial vans and utes

What lenders assess

Lenders may review:

  • Business trading history
  • ABN and GST registration
  • Bank statements
  • Income and contracts
  • Asset type and age
  • Deposit or balloon amount
  • Credit history

New vs used trucks

New trucks may attract stronger lender appetite, while older used trucks may require more deposit or shorter terms.

Balloon payments

A balloon payment can reduce monthly repayments, but it leaves a lump sum payable at the end of the term. It should be structured carefully based on cash flow.
