Book Tata AceAhmedabad to Surat by full truck: the short version
The road from Ahmedabad to Surat is about 265 km down NH48, through Nadiad, Vadodara and Bharuch. A truck loaded in Ahmedabad in the evening normally unloads in Surat the next day. TruckGuru books one full truck for your consignment on that lane, from a Tata Ace up to a 32FT container, and the fare is shown before you confirm.
Looking for the Ahmedabad to Surat transport contact number? Call +91-7202045678, or place the booking online and our team calls you back within 30 minutes during working hours to confirm the truck, the loading time and the documents. We work from our office in Vadodara, which sits right on this route, and we do not run a branch godown in either city.
Is this a daily transport service?
Not in the parcel sense. Many people search for an "Ahmedabad to Surat daily transport service" expecting a fixed truck that leaves every evening and collects cartons from many shops. That kind of carton collection is not what TruckGuru does. What we do is book a dedicated truck for your load on whichever day you need it, Monday or Sunday, once a month or every day of the week. Regular shippers on this lane simply book each trip as it comes, and the same truck size can be repeated.
So if you have two boxes, we are the wrong call. If you have a truckload, or close to one, read on.
What actually moves between the two cities
Ahmedabad and Surat are both textile towns, but they do different jobs. Narol and the processing houses around Ahmedabad finish and print fabric that often ends up in the wholesale markets along Ring Road in Surat, while Surat's own weaving units in Pandesara and Sachin send grey cloth the other way. Vatva and Naroda GIDC load chemicals, dyes and intermediates for the units at Sachin and around Hazira. Changodar and Sanand ship packaged food, plastics and engineering parts to Surat distributors. Return trips carry yarn, finished sarees and dress material, and machinery parts for the weaving sheds.
- Textile rolls, grey fabric and garment bundles
- Drums and bags of dyes and industrial chemicals (declare hazardous cargo at booking)
- FMCG and packaged food for Surat stockists
- Pipes, fittings and fabricated steel
- Loom spares and small machinery
Which truck fits your load?
For 1 ton or less of cartons, an Ace / Dost / Pickup (up to 1,100 kg) is enough. Fabric rolls are light for their size, so textile shippers usually run out of floor space before they hit the weight limit; a 17FT or 19FT Eicher is the common choice there. Chemical drums are the opposite: heavy and compact, so a 14FT Eicher at 3.5 ton often does the job. Use the truck size guide if you are unsure, or compare body styles on the truck type page. Covered cargo that must stay dry in the monsoon goes in a closed container truck.
Ahmedabad to Surat truck rates
Freight rates on this route are not fixed. They move with the vehicle, the cargo, the day of loading and how many trucks are free in Ahmedabad that week. Diwali and the wedding season push textile volume up and trucks get scarce in October. The ranges below are trip totals with toll included.

Transit, border and paperwork
At about 265 km, transit is 1 day. Both cities are in Gujarat, so there is no state border on this trip. Traffic around Vadodara and the Bharuch bridge over the Narmada is where most of the delay happens; the driver plans around it, but evening loading usually works best.
The consignor or consignee generates the e-way bill when the goods are worth more than Rs.50,000. The driver needs the e-way bill number and the tax invoice before leaving. TruckGuru issues a digital Lorry Receipt at loading, the truck is GPS tracked from dispatch to delivery, and a GST invoice follows after delivery. Loading and unloading labour and transit insurance are arranged by you.
Booking a truck on this lane, step by step
Enter Ahmedabad as pickup and Surat as drop on the freight calculator, pick the truck and date, and check the trip fare. You can also book on the TruckGuru app. After you confirm, our team calls within 30 minutes in working hours with the vehicle details. Share the exact loading address, ideally with the GIDC plot number, because a truck that reaches the wrong gate in Vatva can lose an hour finding the right one.
