Frequently Asked Questions
Who can apply for transport and logistics finance?
Transport operators, logistics businesses, freight companies, and owner-drivers looking to purchase or upgrade trucks, trailers, prime movers, and other transport related vehicles and equipment.
What types of finance are available for transport equipment?
Options include chattel mortgage, finance lease, and operating lease. We’ll help you choose the structure that best suits your business and tax position.
What deposit do I need for transport finance?
For most asset finance loans, nil deposits are generally required, however, in some circumstances, a deposit may be required depending on the lender and your business circumstances.
Can I finance used trucks and transport vehicles?
Yes. Many lenders offer finance for quality used trucks, trailers, and heavy vehicles. Age and condition requirements vary by lender.
How does a chattel mortgage work for transport equipment?
A chattel mortgage allows you to purchase the asset and use it as security for the loan. You own the equipment from day one, and may be able to claim tax deductions on interest and depreciation.
What is the difference between a finance lease and an operating lease?
A finance lease typically involves ownership at the end of the term, while an operating lease is more like a rental arrangement with the option to return, upgrade, or purchase the asset.
Can I use invoice finance or debtor finance to improve cash flow?
Yes. Invoice finance and debtor finance allow you to access funds tied up in outstanding invoices, helping you manage working capital while waiting for customer payments.
How long does the approval process take?
It varies by lender and complexity, but transport finance approvals typically take between 24 – 48 hours once all documentation is provided.
Are there finance options for fleet upgrades?
Yes. We can help arrange finance for multiple vehicles or equipment purchases, and structure repayments to suit your cash flow and operational needs.
How can a broker help with transport and logistics finance?
A broker guides you through lender criteria, compares finance products and interest rates, structures solutions to suit your business, and supports you from application to settlement.
