Forklift & Warehouse Finance Perth
From a single forklift to a full warehouse fit-out, the right materials-handling equipment keeps a business moving. PTR Finance Group arranges forklift finance and warehouse equipment finance for Perth and WA businesses, whether you want to own the gear outright or lease it to protect cash flow.
Forklift Loan or Lease | New & Used | Warehouse Fit-Outs | Materials Handling
We offer both forklift loans and forklift leases, so you can choose between owning the asset and keeping repayments off your balance sheet. For growing operations, financing materials-handling equipment means you can scale your warehouse without tying up the working capital you need day to day.
Beyond forklifts, we can fund a complete warehouse fit-out – racking, shelving, conveyors and access equipment – under a single, manageable facility. Our brokers compare a panel of lenders to find the sharpest option for the equipment you are buying.
We finance a full range of forklift and warehouse equipment, including:
-
-
Reach trucks & order pickers

Pallet jacks & stackers

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I lease or buy a forklift?
It depends on how long you will use it and your tax position. A forklift lease keeps repayments predictable and can stay off your balance sheet, which suits shorter-term or fast-changing needs. A chattel mortgage or loan lets you own the forklift outright and is often better if you plan to keep it long term. We will walk through both.
Can I finance new and used forklifts?
Yes. We arrange finance for both new and used forklifts, including electric, LPG and diesel units. The age and hours of a used forklift affect the available term and rate, and we will match you with a lender comfortable with the specific machine.
Can you finance a full warehouse fit-out?
We can. Racking, shelving, conveyors, access equipment and forklifts can often be bundled into a single facility, so a whole fit-out is covered by one manageable repayment rather than several separate loans.
What is the difference between a forklift lease and a chattel mortgage?
With a lease you effectively rent the forklift for a set term with the option to buy it out at the end, and repayments are generally treated as an operating expense. With a chattel mortgage you own the forklift from day one and finance it against the asset, claiming depreciation and interest. The best choice comes down to your accounting and how long you will keep it.
Can I finance materials-handling equipment for a growing business?
Yes. Financing materials-handling equipment lets you add capacity without draining working capital, which is exactly what growing warehouses need. We have options for newer businesses as well as established ones.
How quickly can forklift finance be approved?
Straightforward applications for established businesses can often be approved within a day, with settlement soon after. If you are financing a larger warehouse fit-out or have a newer business, expect a little more time while lenders review the details.
