Excavator Finance FAQs

Common questions about excavator finance

What types of excavators can I finance?
We can finance all types of excavators including mini excavators (1-5 tonne), midi excavators (5-10 tonne), standard excavators (10-30 tonne), and large excavators (30+ tonne). Both new and used equipment qualifies.
What's the difference between chattel mortgage and hire purchase?
With a chattel mortgage, you own the equipment from day one and can claim GST upfront. With hire purchase, the lender owns the equipment until final payment. Both offer tax benefits but suit different business structures.
Can I get finance for a used excavator?
Yes, we finance used excavators up to 15 years old. The rate and terms may vary based on the age and condition of the equipment, but we have specialist lenders for older machinery.
How quickly can I get approved?
Most excavator finance applications are approved within 24 hours. For straightforward applications with good credit, we can often get same-day approval.
Do I need a deposit?
Not necessarily. We offer 100% finance options for qualifying applicants. However, a deposit can help reduce your repayments and may improve your rate.
