Same Day Scraper Finance Australia
Need same day scraper finance so you can lock in the scraper before it sells? Overdrive Funding issues same-day pre-approval on eligible applications and compares 80+ lenders on one file.
We arrange finance for trucks and trailers for Australian ABN holders — sole traders, companies, trusts and contractors — buying new or used assets from dealerships, private sellers and auctions.
How same day scraper finance works
“Same day” means a pre-approval decision on eligible files the day we have what we need — not a guaranteed settlement in 24 hours.
On a clean, complete application we can often issue pre-approval the same day and a full decision within 24 to 48 hours. Settlement follows lender and asset checks, including valuation on some used and auction trucks. Pre-approvals can be valid for 90 days, so you can keep shopping once the limit is in place.
When speed matters
- Auction pickup deadlines
- Private-sale ${asset === "machinery" ? "machines" : "trucks"} that will not last the weekend
- Dealer stock about to go
- A breakdown that has ${asset === "machinery" ? "a machine" : "a truck"} off the road
Send the invoice or listing, ABN details and a short outline of the business. We go to lenders the same day where the file allows.
What we can finance same day (eligible files)
Prime movers, tippers, tow trucks, refrigerated trucks, crane trucks, curtainsiders, flatbeds and other commercial trucks.
New or used. Dealer, private or auction. No-deposit and balloon options may be available. In many cases the truck is the only security, subject to lender criteria.
Low-doc path when you need an answer today
No current financials? For eligible ABN holders, low-doc, lite-doc and no-doc scraper finance up to $500,000 may be available with less paperwork — often the fastest route to a same-day pre-approval.

Need help deciding? Our finance specialists will assess your circumstances and recommend the most suitable asset finance solution for your business.
| If You Are… | Recommended Option |
|---|---|
| Self-employed or businesses with limited financial records | Low Doc |
| Businesses with bank statements and BAS available | Light Doc |

Low Doc Machinery Finance
Low Doc finance is designed for borrowers who want a simple, streamlined approval process. In most cases, no financial statements or BAS statements are required. Approval is generally based on your ABN history, credit profile, and the asset being financed.
Light Doc Machinery Finance
Light Doc finance provides a middle ground between Low Doc and Full Doc lending. Borrowers can often qualify using recent business bank statements and limited supporting documentation, without the need for full financial accounts.
Full Doc Machinery Finance
Full Doc finance is suitable for borrowers who can provide complete financial records and supporting documentation. This option typically offers the most competitive rates and highest borrowing capacity.
Same Day Scraper Finance — frequently asked questions
What are scraper finance rates in Australia?
Scraper finance rates typically start from around 6.55% and can range to 15%, depending on your credit profile, business history, financials, the age and value of the scraper, loan amount and preferred loan terms. Eligible applicants financing newer scrapers may qualify for rates at the lower end of this range. We compare options across 80+ lenders to find competitive rates and repayments suited to your circumstances, and negotiate directly with lenders for a better deal where possible. Rates are indicative only and subject to lender criteria, credit assessment, fees, terms and approval.
Can I get scraper finance with just an ABN?
Not with an ABN alone. If you’re a new business or don’t have full financials, there are lenders that may still consider your application, but they’ll generally want to see a registered business, a confirmed source of work with a reputable company, and usually a deposit. The work doesn’t necessarily need to be under a formal contract, but the lender will typically want to verify the work details verbally. The deposit required will vary depending on your overall credit profile, business experience and the scraper you’re purchasing. We can assess your situation and determine which lenders and finance options are available without putting you through unnecessary applications.
Can I finance a new or used scraper?
Yes. We arrange finance for new, used and older scrapers, whether you’re buying from a dealer, private seller or auction. The age, value and condition of a used scraper can influence which lenders and finance options are available. We can compare options from lenders that finance a wide range of used and older machines to find a suitable deal for your circumstances.
Can I get scraper finance with no deposit?
Yes. No deposit scraper finance may allow eligible ABN holders to finance up to 100% of the purchase price with no upfront deposit. Eligibility depends on your business history, credit profile, financial position and the scraper being purchased.
Can I get low doc scraper finance?
Yes. Low doc scraper finance up to $500,000 may be available to eligible ABN holders without providing a full set of financial statements and tax returns. Depending on the lender, BAS statements, business bank statements, an accountant declaration or other supporting documents may be accepted.
Can I get scraper finance without financials?
Yes. Eligible ABN holders may qualify for no financials scraper finance without providing full financial statements or tax returns. Lenders may instead consider your ABN and GST history, credit profile, business history and the scraper being financed.
How much can I borrow for a scraper?
Depending on your circumstances, low-doc scraper finance may be available up to $500,000, while full-doc finance can extend to $5–10 million+ for larger purchases or fleets. Your borrowing capacity will depend on your business financials, trading history, the scraper being financed and the lender’s criteria.
What loan terms are available for scraper finance?
Scraper finance terms are generally available from 1 to 7 years, depending on the lender, the age of the scraper and your circumstances. We can structure the term and repayments around your business cash flow and how long you plan to keep the machine.
Can I get scraper finance with bad credit?
Yes. Having bad credit doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t get scraper finance. We work with a range of lenders and can explore options based on your individual circumstances, business history and the scraper you’re looking to finance. Every application is different, so approval isn’t guaranteed, but we’ll work to find the most suitable finance option available for your situation.
Can I finance a scraper from a private seller or auction?
Yes. Scraper finance can be arranged for dealer purchases, private sales and auction purchases. Private and auction purchases can have different lender, valuation and documentation requirements, so getting the finance organised before committing to the purchase can make the process easier.
What finance options are available for scrapers?
Scrapers can be financed using a chattel mortgage, commercial hire purchase, finance lease and other machinery finance structures. The right option depends on your business, cash flow, ownership requirements and tax position.
How does a balloon payment work on scraper finance?
A balloon is a lump sum left owing at the end of the finance term. Including a balloon can reduce your regular repayments, but it leaves a larger amount to pay or refinance at the end. The right balloon depends on your scraper, finance structure and business cash flow.
How quickly can scraper finance be approved?
Most of the time, we can get same-day approval. Some applications may take 24 to 48 hours, depending on the scraper you’re purchasing, your business background, the complexity of the application, and whether the lender requires any additional information or documentation. We work to match your application with the most suitable lender from the outset, helping keep the approval process as quick and straightforward as possible.
Does getting a scraper finance quote affect my credit score?
Getting a scraper finance quote with Overdrive has zero impact on your credit score. We don’t require any upfront credit checks to provide you with a quote. A formal credit enquiry is only made once you give us the go-ahead to proceed with your application and we submit it to the most suitable lender.
Can I finance multiple scrapers or an entire fleet?
Yes. Scraper fleet finance is available for businesses purchasing multiple machines or expanding an existing fleet. Eligible businesses may access low doc finance up to $500,000, or full doc finance from smaller purchases through to $10 million+ for larger fleet transactions. Finance can be structured around your business cash flow, existing commitments and fleet requirements, with lender pricing negotiated based on the strength and size of the transaction.
