Free up the capital sitting in your fleet.
We buy your existing vehicles at market value and lease them back to you on an operating lease. Capital comes off the balance sheet. The same vehicles, the same drivers, the same routes, with the management layer that comes with leasing. One conversation moves a fleet from owned to leased without disrupting a single shift.
How sale and leaseback works?
From owned fleet to leased fleet, without changing what's on the road.
Sale and leaseback is a one-step conversion. We value your existing fleet at market price, buy the vehicles from your organisation, and lease them straight back to you on an operating lease. The vehicles never leave your operation. The drivers don't change. The depots don't change. What changes is what's on your balance sheet: capital is released, and the ongoing cost shifts to a predictable lease payment that includes everything the vehicle generates.
It suits organisations that own a working fleet, want to release capital for something else (growth, debt reduction, programme funding), and would rather not run the parallel exercise of replacing vehicles one by one. Most sale and leaseback conversions settle into a clean operating-lease cadence within sixty days of the agreement being signed.
Process
Four steps from owned to leased.
The conversion is a fleet review, a valuation, a sale, and a leaseback. We do the heavy lifting on the valuation, the documentation and the transition. Most fleets settle into the new operating-lease cadence inside sixty days of sign-off.
Indicative example
What capital release can look like.
A community services organisation we worked with owned nine people-movers, several with disability modifications. Maintenance costs were rising, the fleet was ageing, and they wanted clearer per-vehicle cost data to support an upcoming NDIS pricing review. We bought the fleet at market valuation, leased it straight back on a fully-maintained operating lease, and built the reporting around their NDIS line items.
