Contractors and subbies often need a reliable light truck to take on jobs and keep the work flowing. Financing one on your ABN is very achievable. Lenders just want to see that your contracting income can comfortably support the repayments.

How is contractor truck finance assessed?

Whether you're a sole trader contractor or run a small company, lenders look at how steady your work is, your ABN and trading time, and the documents you can supply. Regular contracting income and ongoing arrangements with head contractors all help demonstrate you can service the loan.

Can contractors use low-doc finance?

Some contractors have full financials ready; others prefer low-doc options using bank statements or a simple declaration. Both paths exist for eligible applicants, depending on your ABN age and the amount financed. The light truck's age and type also factor into the terms, subject to lender criteria.
