Plant Hire

Finance for operators building, expanding, or refreshing plant-hire fleets. Master facilities, fleet rollovers, and multi-asset pathways.

Plant Hire finance, plain English.

TMF arranges plant hire equipment finance for Australian operators — covering mixed earthmoving fleets, ewps and access equipment, compaction plant, support and service vehicles and related assets — from $30K to $5M+ through a panel of 40+ lenders. Master facilities with progressive drawdowns let you add units as you win contracts rather than re-qualifying every time. Residuals are carefully managed to protect fleet economics.
