FAQ

Trucking Business Loan FAQs for Austin Operators

Equipment financing for tractors, trailers, and specialized vehicles (using the equipment as collateral), SBA 7(a) for working capital and acquisition, factoring for freight invoice financing, and working capital lines for fuel and maintenance. Fleet expansion is the most common use case.
Yes. Equipment financing is the fastest route — the truck or trailer is the collateral, and approval can happen in 5–15 business days. SBA 7(a) equipment sections work for larger fleet purchases or combined with real estate. Owner-operators and fleets of any size qualify.
Equipment financing is most accessible — as little as 1 year in business, 640+ credit, and active contracts. SBA 7(a) typically requires 2+ years. Startup trucking companies can access equipment financing with a down payment of 10–20% and contracts in hand.
Yes. Revenue-based working capital lines ($25K–$500K) cover fuel, maintenance, and driver payroll between loads. Invoice factoring is another option — immediate advance (typically 80–90%) against outstanding freight invoices.
Key factors: number of active units, USDOT/MC authority, contract freight lanes, 12-month revenue, and personal credit 640+. Owner-operators with active authority and haul contracts can qualify quickly. Factoring companies look primarily at customer creditworthiness, not your credit.
