Civil & Earthmoving
Bulk earthmoving, road and rail, bridges, airports, renewable energy zones, site prep and land development. Where TMF’s project intelligence and finance expertise compound across long-cycle asset classes.
Civil & Earthmoving finance, plain English.
TMF arranges civil & earthmoving equipment finance for Australian operators — covering excavators 20t–80t+, dozers (track and wheel), graders, wheel loaders and related assets — from $30K to $5M+ through a panel of 40+ lenders. Civil and earthmoving contractors benefit from project-aligned structures. Dozers, ADTs, and larger excavators sit at the longer end of financeable terms — strong residuals and stable depreciation support 5 to 7 year structures. TMF tracks named infrastructure projects so finance conversations are grounded in pipeline reality.
