Typical clients we work with in mining and quarry
Our mining and quarry clients typically spend from $1 million to $50 million per annum on equipment finance. We work with the operators and contractors behind production, site services and fleet growth.
That describes our usual clients, not a fixed rule. If your business supports mining or quarrying in another way, talk to us about the purchase. We’re happy to assess serial numbered plant and equipment that a lender may be able to finance.

With you from the first asset to a major fleet.
The first working asset.
Funding the machine that gets the business moving, with the work and repayment capacity in view.
A fleet taking shape.
Planning equipment for new contracts, replacement purchases and the next stage of growth.
Multiple assets.
Coordinating lender exposure, fleet debt and annual funding capacity so the next move has room.
Finance for the purchase, the fleet and the business.
From an urgent acquisition to a planned fleet renewal, we match the funding approach to your timing and the wider debt position.

Traditional full doc finance
Using your last two years of financials and recent reporting, we prepare a thorough application for major banks and specialist equipment finance lenders. We explain the business, the purchase and the numbers behind it.
Low doc finance
Available when an urgent approval or settlement leaves little time for a full financial submission. We use low doc options selectively and preserve that capacity for the moments you need it, subject to lender criteria.
Master limits
An annually reviewed ceiling for individual equipment acquisitions throughout the year, typically from $1 million to $50 million. For growing fleets, an agreed limit brings clearer visibility to funding capacity. Each purchase remains subject to the facility’s terms and lender requirements.
Business lending
Debtor finance, overdrafts, term loans and other commercial facilities can support the business around the fleet. We consider cash flow, existing security and equipment commitments together, then work with suitable business lenders and bankers.
Trade old fleet for new
Know what every machine owes and what can be traded towards new equipment. We map payouts, trade values and replacement plans, including assets with existing debt, and coordinate supplier timing so the funding and fleet rollout work together.
Refinancing and consolidation
Rapid growth can leave debt scattered across lenders or facilities that no longer suit. We assess restructuring with one or several lenders to release capacity where possible, improve the debt arrangement and reopen funding lines, accounting for payouts, costs and available security. Adjusting the term and repayment structure may also soften monthly repayments and ease cash flow pressure; a longer term can increase the total interest paid.

Brokers who go beyond the approval
Prepare the credit case.
James and Dan have worked in bank credit and broking. We review the financials, existing debt and supporting information before approaching lenders, and work with you and your advisers to explain material entries or changes clearly. A well prepared application gives lenders a fairer picture of the business.
Show you where you stand.
We give you a direct view of the funding opportunities we see, where the challenges sit and how confident we are in the proposed approach. We map out fleet debt, lender exposures and available capacity between all lenders, so you get complete visibility to how far you can go on your fleet expansion.
Place each purchase with purpose.
The lowest priced lender for today’s machine may be the lender you need for a much larger facility tomorrow. We consider where each asset belongs across the available banks and specialist lenders, protecting room for future purchases where we can.
Master Limits with the Majors.
Where the business and lender criteria support it, we can pursue an annual equipment finance limit. It gives you an agreed funding framework for eligible purchases through the year, with each drawdown assessed and documented under the lender’s terms.
Bring the right banking relationships to the table.
As your needs grow, we can introduce and work alongside suitable business or corporate bankers. That can open conversations about broader facilities, including working capital, trade funding and commercial property finance, while keeping the equipment strategy connected.
Find value already in the fleet.
Unencumbered equipment, or assets nearing the end of their finance term, may offer an opportunity to release equity in times of a cashflow pinch. We can assess the equipment, valuation and lender options to see whether refinancing could return useful cash to the business.
Be a sounding board beyond the transaction.
Business owners need someone they can speak with candidly. We bring an independent perspective shaped by years of working with operators across the country, keep your information confidential and stay involved as your plans change.

Know what you can fund before the next tender lands.
One machine or a whole mining fleet. Let’s map the capacity and timing before you commit to the work.

Frequently asked questions.
Why work with MFG for equipment finance?
You deal directly with James or Dan. We have worked inside credit, so we look at how a lender will assess the business as well as the equipment. The aim is to fund this purchase without losing sight of the next one.
Do you charge an upfront fee?
We do not charge an upfront brokerage establishment fee. We are paid by lenders when a transaction settles. If a lender has its own fees, we will show you those in the proposed terms before you commit.
What kinds of equipment can you finance?
We work with commercial equipment and business vehicles across earthmoving, mining, transport, agriculture, manufacturing, aviation and other heavy industries. New, used, single assets and whole fleets are all worth a conversation. We do not arrange personal car loans.
Can you finance used or older equipment?
Often, yes. Age alone does not decide it. The lender will also look at the equipment type, condition, hours or kilometres, value and how the business will use it. Tell us what you are considering before you lock in a short settlement date.
What if I am buying privately, at auction or interstate?
Those purchases can be financed, but the paperwork and timing matter. We may need to check ownership, identification, condition, value and how payment will be made. Auction deadlines in particular can be tight, so involve us early.
How quickly can finance be approved?
It depends on the business, the equipment, the lender and whether the information is ready. A straightforward repeat purchase may move quickly; a larger or more involved transaction needs more work. Give us the deadline and we will tell you what is realistic.
What interest rate will I get?
There is no one rate that fits every purchase. The lender, business profile, equipment, deposit, term and repayment structure all affect the offer. We compare the whole deal, including fees, balloon and future borrowing capacity, rather than quoting a headline rate in isolation.
Can I apply without full financial statements?
Possibly. Some lenders offer reduced-documentation options for eligible businesses. We will look at whether that route actually makes sense, because a full assessment can sometimes lead to a better structure or more room for the next purchase.
Can you help a newer business or one with a credit issue?
We can look at the position and tell you honestly where it stands. Trading history, contracts, cash flow, deposit and the reason for any credit issue all matter. There is no blanket yes or no, and we will not promise an approval we cannot support.
Do I need a deposit?
Not always. It depends on the business, equipment and lender. We will weigh up the benefit of keeping cash in the business against the cost and terms of borrowing more.
How much can I borrow and over what term?
That depends on the purchase, the business’s ability to repay, existing commitments and the lender’s policy. The useful question is what level of debt and repayment suits the work the equipment will do, not just the maximum someone will approve.
What is a balloon payment?
It is an agreed amount left to pay at the end of the term. It can reduce regular repayments, but the final amount still needs a plan. We look at likely resale value, replacement timing and the payout before recommending one.
Can we finance several purchases as part of one plan?
Yes. If you are building or replacing a fleet, we can map the purchases, allocate them across lenders and consider an equipment finance limit where the business qualifies. That can help preserve capacity for what comes next.
Can we arrange finance before we choose the exact equipment?
Sometimes. Depending on the lender and the business, we may be able to assess a funding limit or obtain an indication before the final asset is known. The lender will still need to approve the actual equipment and seller before settlement.
Can you refinance equipment we already own or have financed?
We can review it. The existing payout, current value, remaining term and reason for refinancing will determine whether there is a worthwhile option. We will also consider how it affects your broader lender capacity.
How does a trade-in affect the new finance?
We need the trade value and any payout on the existing loan. The equity or shortfall becomes part of the new purchase calculation, so it is best to work through both sides before you agree to the deal.
Can you finance imported equipment?
Potentially. Imported purchases need more planning around supplier terms, currency, shipping, identification and when the lender can take security. Bring us in before a deposit or payment milestone is due.
Can I make extra repayments or pay out early?
That depends on the lender and product. Some facilities allow flexibility; others may have early payout costs or a different interest calculation. If early repayment is likely, tell us at the start so we can factor it into the structure.
What finance options do you consider?
A chattel mortgage is common for business equipment, but it is not the only structure. Depending on the purchase, we may also consider a lease or another facility. We will explain who owns the equipment, the repayment and any final amount before you choose.
Can two related businesses be involved in the purchase?
Sometimes. We need to be clear about which entity is buying the equipment, which one will use it and where the income sits. We can map the group and approach lenders that are comfortable with that structure.
I already have a quote. Can you look at it?
Of course. Send the full terms, not just the rate. We will look at fees, balloon, security, flexibility and what the deal might mean for the next purchase. If your existing offer is the right one, we will tell you.
How do we get started?
Tell us what you are buying, the price, seller and timing, plus a little about the business and its existing finance. James or Dan will talk through the purchase with you and outline the information needed for the right lenders.
Tell us what you’re working towards.
