Financing for Truck and Bus Repair Specialists

Heavy-vehicle workshops are capital-intensive, and a single piece of kit — a heavy-duty hoist, brake tester, wheel aligner or up-to-date diagnostic system — can be a major outlay. Equipment finance around the ~$120,000 mark lets you fit out or expand a bay, add specialist tooling, or upgrade diagnostics to handle newer trucks and buses without draining your cash. Spreading the cost over the life of the gear keeps capital free for parts and wages.

Working capital also bridges the gap between fronting large parts orders and being paid by fleet customers on extended terms. A facility lets you stock fast-moving parts, take on a big fleet contract, or cover wages while invoices sit unpaid. Cockatoo helps match you to a lender who understands heavy-vehicle trade and fleet-payment cycles rather than treating you like a small car shop.

Common questions

Truck and Bus Repair Specialists — business loan questions

Can I finance heavy-vehicle hoists and diagnostic gear?

Yes — hoists, brake testers, wheel aligners and diagnostic systems are all common equipment-finance items. Spreading the cost over the life of the gear keeps your cash free for parts and wages, and Cockatoo helps match you to a lender who understands the heavy-vehicle trade.

How can finance help with slow-paying fleet clients?

A working-capital line covers the gap between buying parts and finishing a job and the fleet customer paying on 30 or 60-day terms. It means you can keep parts stocked and wages paid without waiting on every invoice to settle.
