Business finance
Tell us the truck specification, intended work, purchase amount and available business records.
What affects your options
Configuration and purchase price are only the beginning. Lenders may also consider the work, business history and how the truck supports sustainable cash flow.
Prime mover, rigid, light truck, trailer combination, build year and kilometres influence valuation and lender policy.
Existing contracts, operating experience and the type of freight or work can help explain the commercial use.
