Financing for Roadworthy and Safety Certificate Providers

Roadworthy and certificate businesses are capital-intensive, with finance needs reaching the ~$120,000 mark. Hoists, brake roller testers, wheel alignment rigs, diagnostic scan tools and a second inspection bay are major outlays that let you handle more vehicles and capture more repair work. Equipment finance spreads these costs over the gear's working life, while a working-capital line covers parts and wages between jobs. Cockatoo helps match you to a lender that understands the workshop equipment and compliance setup behind a certificate business.

Common questions

Roadworthy and Safety Certificate Providers — business loan questions

Can I finance hoists and inspection equipment?

Yes. Equipment finance suits hoists, brake testers, alignment rigs and diagnostic gear, spread over the equipment's working life. Adding a bay or upgrading testers lets you inspect more vehicles and capture more of the repair work that follows.

Is the larger finance amount normal for this trade?

It is. A properly equipped inspection and repair workshop carries serious capital in hoists and testing gear, so figures around the ~$120,000 mark are common. Lenders who understand automotive workshops factor that in, and Cockatoo can match you to one.
