Why Finance a Skid Steer?


Skid steers are high-utilisation machines that need to be reliable, compliant, and available at short notice. Purchase prices typically range from $30,000 to $180,000+, depending on size, hydraulics, attachments and specifications.

Financing a skid steer instead of paying cash allows businesses to:

  • Preserve cash for wages, fuel, and materials

  • Match repayments to contract income

  • Upgrade older machines without downtime

  • Expand fleet capacity to win more work

  • Bundle attachments into a single finance facility

  • Maintain working capital during peak seasons

  • Access potential tax benefits (where eligible)


For most operators, skid steer asset finance is the fastest and most practical way to scale operations.
