Truck Finance
Finance for trucks and HGVs from 3.5t to 44t. New and used vehicles for fleet and individual operators, with hire purchase, contract hire, and finance lease options.
Keep your business moving with the right truck finance
Trucks are essential working assets for haulage, logistics, construction, and distribution businesses. Whether you are an owner-operator adding your first HGV or a fleet manager replacing multiple vehicles, the right finance structure makes a significant difference to your bottom line.
We work with specialist commercial vehicle lenders who understand truck values, depreciation, and the operational demands of the haulage industry. From a single 3.5-tonne van-body to a fleet of 44-tonne artics, we find competitive finance that keeps your wheels turning.
Truck funding for every size and need
Light Commercial (3.5t - 7.5t)
Finance for 3.5-tonne to 7.5-tonne trucks. Ideal for local delivery, trades, and small logistics operations. Standard driving licence vehicles with competitive finance rates.
Medium Trucks (7.5t - 18t)
Mid-range truck finance for distribution, construction, and specialist applications. Rigids and dropsides for businesses stepping up from lighter vehicles.
Heavy Goods Vehicles (18t - 44t)
Finance for artics, rigids, tippers, and specialist HGVs. All configurations and body types. Competitive rates from lenders who specialise in heavy commercial vehicles.
Hire Purchase
Own the truck at the end of the agreement with fixed monthly payments. Claim capital allowances and build equity. The most popular option for owner-operators and small fleets.
Contract Hire
Fixed monthly rental including maintenance and breakdown cover. Return the vehicle at the end of the contract. Predictable costs with no residual value risk.
Finance Lease
Use the truck for the full lease term with a secondary rental period or sale at the end. Flexible end-of-term options and potential off-balance-sheet treatment.

Frequently asked questions
What is specialist finance?
Specialist finance covers funding for assets and sectors that sit outside mainstream lending - agricultural machinery, construction plant, commercial vehicle fleets, equestrian property, farm diversification and similar. Lenders in this space understand the asset and the industry, not just a credit score.
What assets can be financed?
New and used agricultural machinery, tractors, diggers and excavators, HGVs and trucks, vans and fleet vehicles, farm equipment, livestock facilities, equestrian buildings and land - essentially any identifiable income-producing or business-critical asset.
How is specialist finance structured?
Most commonly as hire purchase (you own the asset at the end) or finance lease (lender retains title and leases to you). Refinance and sale-and-leaseback options are also available to release capital from assets you already own.
What deposit and term applies?
Typical deposits are 10-20% of asset value. Terms run from 2 to 7 years depending on the asset's useful life and your preferred cash flow. Balloon payments can be structured in where helpful.
Can startups or new ventures access specialist finance?
Yes - specialist lenders routinely fund new-entrant farmers, newly-incorporated transport operators and first-time business asset buyers. Strong industry experience, a viable business plan and a reasonable deposit typically carry more weight than company trading history.
