Book Tata AceChota Hathi on rent in Rajkot: the number first
Bhade ke liye sampark: +91-7202045678. That is the line for booking a Chota Hathi, the Tata Ace, from Rajkot to another city. Tell us the pickup point, the destination, the weight and the invoice value, or place the same details online, and our team calls back within 30 minutes during working hours with a truck and a trip fare.
TruckGuru's office is in Vadodara, about 300 km east of Rajkot. We have no Rajkot branch and no tempo stand in the city; the Ace and its driver come to your unit or shop. We book intercity trips of 100 km or more only, so Rajkot to Morbi, Gondal or Jamnagar falls outside what we do.
Why Rajkot keeps small trucks busy
Rajkot is an engineering town built on thousands of small units: diesel engines and pumps, castings, forgings, bearings, machine-tool parts, auto components. The GIDC estates at Aji and Metoda and the Shapar-Veraval belt on the Gondal road are full of them. Most units ship in small, frequent lots, which is exactly the work a mini truck is built for.
Typical Ace loads out of Rajkot:
- A few submersible pumps or motor sets for a dealer in Ahmedabad or Vadodara
- Machined castings going to a customer for finishing
- Imitation jewellery and packaging cartons for traders in Surat
- Spare parts for oil mills and ginning units across Saurashtra
Watch the weight on engineering loads. Castings and pump sets are dense, and a deck that looks half empty may already be at 1,100 kg. Give us the real weight from your invoice, not an estimate.
Lanes from Rajkot, with time on the road
- Bhavnagar, about 175 km: same day possible depending on loading time, otherwise next day
- Porbandar, about 180 km: same day possible depending on loading time, otherwise next day
- Ahmedabad, about 215 km: 1 day
- Vadodara, about 300 km: 1 day
- Surat, about 470 km: 1 day
The Rajkot-Ahmedabad highway is the busiest of these. Around Diwali, when every Saurashtra dealer restocks at once, small trucks on that lane get scarce; booking a few days ahead in October is wise.
Inbound works the same way. A Rajkot unit waiting on bearings from Ahmedabad or raw material from Vadodara can book the mini truck from that end, and it comes straight to the factory gate here.

Bigger than an Ace
The Tata Ace is a mini truck with a load capacity of up to 1,100 kg. Ashok Leyland's Bada Dost is a different vehicle, rated up to 1.5 ton. For heavier engineering cargo, look at the Eicher trucks, from 3.5 ton upward. More on the vehicle is on the Tata Ace for rent page. Other pickup locations are on our Chota Hathi on rent page, and Ahmedabad bookings on truck hire in Ahmedabad.
Documents and handover
Above Rs.50,000 in value, the consignor or consignee generates the e-way bill. TruckGuru issues a digital Lorry Receipt at loading and tracks the truck by GPS from dispatch to delivery. The GST invoice follows after delivery. Your side covers loading and unloading labour, plus transit insurance if you want it.
