Transport & Logistics

Prime movers, rigids, tippers, trailers, and specialty freight assets. Finance built for how freight businesses actually run.

Transport & Logistics finance, plain English.

TMF arranges transport & logistics equipment finance for Australian operators — covering prime movers, rigid trucks, tippers, b-doubles and a-doubles and related assets — from $30K to $5M+ through a panel of 40+ lenders. Contract-aligned structures work particularly well. Where a named freight agreement backs the asset, lenders can frame repayments against the revenue. Staged truck builds finance on progress draws.
