Beat the Taxman: Why Now is the Best Time to Upgrade Your Truck

12 June 2026

Beat the Taxman: Why Now is the Best Time to Upgrade Your Truck (At Last Year’s Prices)

With June 30 rapidly approaching on the horizon, every truckie, owner-driver, and fleet manager across Australia is looking at the same thing: how to get the best tax write-off before the financial year wraps up.

Your work vehicle isn’t just a tool; it’s a rolling billboard for your business. A battered bumper, a faded grille, or a cracked mirror assembly doesn’t just look tired—it can hold your business back.

If you’ve been putting off giving your rig the face-lift or safety upgrade it deserves, we have some good news for you. While the cost of everything else seems to be skyrocketing right now, Moore Truck Parts is locking in our low prices for EOFY.

Here is why upgrading your work vehicle right now is a total no-brainer for your business and your wallet.

1. The Ultimate Double-Dip: Low Prices + Tax Deductions

Most suppliers take EOFY as an opportunity to run confusing “sales” on stock they can’t move, only to jack up their regular prices on July 1st.

We do things a bit differently. We’ve kept our entire range of quality aftermarket parts at the same low prices you’ve relied on all year. When you upgrade before June 30, you get the double benefit of mates-rates pricing upfront, plus a 100% tax deduction on your business return this year. It’s a win-win.

2. Boost Your Brand (And Your Resale Value)

First impressions matter on the road and at the loading dock. If you are turning up to clients with mismatched panels or dull, yellowed headlight lenses, it says something about your attention to detail.

Upgrading to fresh chrome trim, a crisp new grille, or a pristine replacement bumper bar instantly knocks years off your truck’s appearance. Not only does it make your business look more professional, but keeping your fleet looking sharp directly protects your asset’s resale value down the line.

3. Don’t Risk a Defect Notice in Winter

In Australia, June doesn’t just mean tax time—it means winter driving conditions have arrived. Shorter days and wetter roads mean your visibility needs to be spot on.

Upgrading your lighting assemblies, replacing hazy mirrors, and ensuring your wiper systems are flawless isn’t just an EOFY deduction strategy—it’s a safety priority. Spending a bit of your tax money on quality aftermarket lighting now is a lot cheaper than copping a hefty fine or a defect notice on the roads later.

Pro Tip for Fast EOFY Processing: To claim your truck upgrades on this year’s tax return, the parts must be purchased and invoiced before midnight on June 30.

What’s On Your Upgrade List?

Whether you’re running a single Japanese delivery tipper or a fleet of heavy-duty European highway haulers, we’ve got the stock ready to ship from our Smeaton Grange warehouse:

  • Front-End Refreshes: Grilles, bumper bars, and panel replacements to scrub away years of highway stone chips.

  • Vision & Safety: Headlight assemblies, indicators, and heavy-duty mirror covers to keep you seeing clearly through the winter rain.

  • Chrome Upgrades: Give your truck that premium look without the premium OEM price tag.

Secure Your Price Lock Today

Don’t hand your hard-earned cash straight over to the taxman. Reinvest it back into your business, upgrade your work vehicle, and keep your running costs down.

Explore our massive range of quality aftermarket components online, or swing by our Smeaton Grange trade counter for Click & Collect. Our prices are locked, the stock is ready, and June 30 won’t wait!

Fighting the Fuel Spike: How Moore Truck Parts is Keeping Your Overhead Down

21 April 2026

Fighting the Fuel Spike: How Moore Truck Parts is Keeping Your Overhead Down

The Current State of Play: $2.50/L and Counting.

We’ve all seen the prices at the pump lately—hitting $2.50+ in some spots across Australia. For those of us in the transport industry, that’s not just a number on a sign; it’s a direct hit to the bottom line. With fuel prices reaching new highs, we understand the pressure to keep your overheads low and your trucks on the road.

At Moore Truck Parts, we reckon you deserve a fair go. We can’t do much about the global oil market, but we can make sure you aren’t getting stung twice when it comes to maintenance and repairs.

The Moore Truck Parts Promise: Quality Parts, Low Prices

While everything else is going up, we’re digging our heels in to keep our aftermarket range affordable. We believe that maintaining a Scania, DAF, or Mercedes-Benz shouldn’t cost a king’s ransom just because diesel is expensive.

By sourcing high-quality aftermarket body panels, mirrors, and lighting directly, we bypass the “OEM tax.” No matter what rig you’re steering, we’ve got the gear to keep you moving for less.

Save Your Fuel, We’ll Cover the Delivery

Why burn $50 worth of diesel driving to a showroom when you don’t have to? Not only are our parts priced to keep your bank account happy, but we’ll also cover the delivery. Order online and we’ll ship it straight to your workshop or depot.

To keep your fleet moving fast, here’s how our Australia-Wide Shipping works:

  • Metro & Major Centres: 100% Free. If you’re in a major hub, the freight is on us. No hidden fees, no surprises at checkout.

  • Regional & Rural: We offer free shipping to the vast majority of Aussie addresses. If you’re way out back in a remote zone, we’ll do our absolute best to cover it. (Note: Some T&Cs may apply for oversized gear or extremely remote locations where we may deliver to the nearest depot).

  • Smeaton Grange Locals: Need it now? Order online and select “Local Pickup” to grab your parts directly from our warehouse today.

Efficiency is the New Currency

Beyond just the price of the part, we’re focused on Technical Efficiency. Every minute your truck sits in the workshop is a minute it isn’t earning.

We’ve optimised our digital catalogue to ensure you get the right part the first time. Whether it’s radar-permeable bumpers for modern ADAS systems or specific mirror assemblies for European models, our goal is a perfect fit with zero downtime.

“Our mission is simple: Keep Australian trucking affordable, even when the rest of the world isn’t.”

Ready to Save?

Don’t let maintenance costs add to your fuel headache. Browse our latest arrivals for Isuzu, Hino, Iveco, MAN, and more, and take advantage of our free shipping program today.
