Financing for Timber Suppliers

Timber yards need cash to hold stock and serve the trade. Restocking structural timber and sheet goods, bringing in a load of decking before the warm season, or funding the 30-day accounts your builders rely on can easily reach the ~$50,000 mark, and that money goes out before the trade pays. A working-capital line lets you keep the fast movers stacked, fund trade accounts, and ride out the quiet wet-season weeks without thinning the yard.

Common questions

Timber Suppliers — business loan questions

Can I finance a stock build before the building season?

Yes. Many yards use a working-capital facility to load up on structural timber and decking before the warm building months, then repay as the stock sells. Cockatoo helps match you to a lender that understands seasonal trade-supply stock cycles.

Will offering trade accounts affect my borrowing?

Lenders expect a timber yard to carry receivables from trade accounts. Showing steady repeat volume and disciplined credit limits generally supports an application rather than hurting it.
