ABOUT US

Know the Full Cost Before You Sign Anything

A truck loan is more than a monthly repayment figure. It shapes your business finances for years. We walk you through interest rates, fees, deposit requirements, and total repayment amounts in plain language before anything gets signed. When you know exactly what you are agreeing to, you stand in a stronger position to manage cash flow and plan the road ahead.

  • We Run the Process, You Run the Business Chasing lenders and comparing loan structures is not the best use of your time when you have a business to run. We handle lender comparisons, prepare submissions, manage follow-ups, and report back with clear options. No phone tag, no waiting in the dark, a direct path to truck finance that works for your Sydney operation.
  • Free Up Equity Through Refinancing An outdated truck loan quietly drains your working capital month after month. If your repayments no longer match your business position, or better rates exist now, refinancing puts real money back into your operation. We work across refinancing solutions, including bad credit truck finance, helping Sydney operators renegotiate terms, lower repayments, and free up cash where it matters most.
  • Finance That Grows Alongside Your Fleet Adding vehicles to your fleet should feel like progress, not a financial juggling act. We structure new truck finance around the realities of fleet management, keeping repayments steady and terms aligned to your operational cycle. Whether you add one truck or ten, the finance structure scales with you. Whether you're adding one truck or ten, we build a finance structure that scales with you.

Our Services - Finance Solutions Across Every Category

Riverwalk Finance supports Sydney businesses across a wide range of finance needs — not just trucks. From equipment purchases to personal loans and unsecured business funding, we bring the same tailored approach to every category we work in. 

Whatever stage your business is at, we have a solution that fits where you’re headed. 

The Right Loan Structure Shows Up in Your Cash Flow

The difference between the right loan and the wrong one is not always obvious upfront, but it shows up in your cash flow every month. We compare lenders across the full market, explain every repayment option honestly, and find finance solutions that put your business in a stronger position from day one.

Our team stays involved from the first conversation through to settlement, so nothing falls through the cracks and you are never left guessing where things stand.

Sydney holds one of Australia’s most diverse commercial transport markets, from construction contractors working across the Greater Sydney Basin to freight operators running long-haul routes up the Pacific Highway. We structure finance to match the range of business types, income patterns, and operational demands this market brings. 

Our specialists learn your business before making a recommendation, because the right structure for a sole trader in Penrith looks different from what suits a logistics company in Moorebank.

New or Used: The Purchase Type Shapes the Loan 

Sydney operators source vehicles through several channels, and your finance should keep pace with all of them. We offer competitive rates and flexible terms for new and used truck purchases. Used truck finance suits businesses that want strong value without overextending on upfront costs. New truck finance gives you access to the latest models with full warranty coverage.

Low Doc Options for Sole Traders and ABN Holders

Not every business owner keeps two years of tax returns in a folder. If you are self-employed, a sole trader, or running a business with variable income, our low doc truck finance solutions fit your situation. Less paperwork, a faster process, and an approval path that does not penalise you for running your own operation.

Prime Movers, Rigid Trucks, and Semi-Trailer Finance

Sydney’s freight and logistics industry runs on heavy vehicles, and those vehicles need specialist finance, not a standard car loan. Our prime mover finance solutions serve transport operators who need quick turnaround, structured repayments, and lenders who understand heavy vehicle operations.

Commercial Vehicle Finance Across Greater Sydney

We finance:

  • Prime movers
  • Heavy rigid trucks
  • Semi-trailers and combinations

Truck Loan Insights for Your Business

Straight answers to the questions Sydney operators ask us most often about truck loans, approvals, and finance structures. 

Frequently Asked Questions

We keep paperwork light for sole traders and ABN holders through our low doc finance options. Here is what we typically ask for:

  • A valid ABN active for at least 12 months
  • A recent BAS statement or accountant’s letter
  • Proof of identity such as a driver’s license
  • Basic details on the truck you want to finance
  • Bank statements from the last three months, if requested


Our lender panel focuses on your current trading position, not a stack of tax returns.

Approval speed depends on how complete your documentation is when you submit. We process applications within 24 hours as standard practice.

Straightforward, well-documented files tend to move the fastest. Complex cases, such as a difficult credit history or unusual income structures, take longer because our lenders review the file by hand.

We finance more than dealer purchases. Sydney operators buy trucks through several channels, and most qualify with us:

  • Private sales between individuals
  • Dealer trade-ins and yard stock
  • Auction purchases with clear title
  • Interstate purchases transported to Sydney


We may require a roadworthy inspection or valuation depending on the truck’s age and condition.

We arrange both structures, and the right one depends on your priorities. A chattel mortgage means you own the truck from day one, while the lender holds a mortgage over it as security. This structure often carries lower interest rates and gives GST registered businesses a tax advantage at purchase.

A commercial hire purchase works differently. The lender owns the truck until your final payment clears, and you make fixed repayments in the meantime. We find businesses that prefer predictable costs over ownership timing often choose this route instead.

We do not always require a deposit. Your situation shapes the answer. Here is what we factor in:

  • Your credit history and trading time under the ABN
  • The age and value of the truck
  • Whether the loan includes a balloon payment
  • The specific lender’s policy on no deposit loans


We offer no deposit options, but a deposit still lowers your monthly repayment.

A bank decline does not close the door with us. Banks apply strict, standardised criteria that often rule out self-employed operators, newer businesses, or anyone with a minor credit blemish, regardless of actual repayment capacity.

Our lender panel assesses your current cash flow and trading pattern instead of relying only on a credit score. We help many Sydney operators secure approval through this channel after a bank decline, often within days of reapplying.

We finance a wide range of vehicle types used across Sydney’s transport and construction sectors:

  • Prime movers and semi-trailers
  • Tipper trucks and rigid trucks
  • Refrigerated delivery trucks
  • Car carriers and specialty vehicles
  • Trailers financed alongside the truck


We finance new and used vehicles alike, whether you run a single truck or a growing fleet.

We replace your current loan with a new one, ideally on better terms. Our process starts with a review of your existing repayments, interest rate, and remaining balance against current market offers.

If a better deal exists, we arrange for the new lender to pay out your old loan, and you move to updated terms, often with lower repayments or a shorter remaining term. Many Sydney businesses refinance with us when their original loan no longer matches their cash flow or when market rates drop.

Credit history plays a role, but it rarely decides the outcome on its own. Our lender panel weighs several factors together:

  • Defaults or late payments in the past two years
  • Current outstanding debt relative to income
  • Trading history and consistency of revenue
  • Any prior truck finance repayment record
  • Whether the issue was a one-off event or an ongoing pattern

 

\A less than perfect credit file still leaves genuine finance options open with us.

We support businesses adding a second truck or scaling toward a larger operation. Our lenders look at the combined revenue and repayment capacity of the business rather than assessing each vehicle in isolation.

We structure fleet finance correctly from the start to prevent repayment strain as the fleet grows. Many Sydney operators finance additions with us gradually, timing each new truck against confirmed contract work or seasonal demand.
