Book Tata AceTrucks from Delhi to the Bokaro steel belt
Bokaro grew around the SAIL steel plant, and much of what the town buys from Delhi is tied to it in some way: machine spares, electrical panels, bearings, safety gear and consumables for the contractors and ancillary units that work around the plant, plus the FMCG and consumer durables a steel town of its size runs through every month. TruckGuru books a dedicated full truck with driver for that lane, about 1,200 km from Delhi, loaded once at your gate and unloaded at your consignee in Bokaro.
Book on the website or app, or call +91-7202045678. After the booking is placed, our team calls you back within 30 minutes in working hours to confirm the truck, the loading time and the documents.
How the truck gets there
The usual run is the old Grand Trunk Road, now NH19. From Delhi the truck heads to Agra, either down the Faridabad-Palwal side through Haryana or along the Yamuna Expressway through Uttar Pradesh, then continues past Kanpur, Prayagraj and Varanasi, crosses Bihar through the Aurangabad and Barhi stretch, and enters Jharkhand. The last part leaves the highway towards Chas and Bokaro.
That is three or four state borders depending on the Agra approach, so the e-way bill has to be in order before the truck moves. For goods above Rs.50,000 the consignor or consignee generates it, and the vehicle number we confirm at booking goes on it.
Plan on 2-3 days on the road. The driver rests at night, and the stretch through Bihar and the climb into the Jharkhand plateau are slower than the plains part of the run.
Gate passes are the usual hold-up
Most delays we see on this lane are not on the highway. They happen at the delivery end. If your consignee is a contractor or vendor working inside a plant area, the truck usually needs an entry pass, a purchase order reference and sometimes a fixed reporting slot. A truck that turns up without these can sit outside the gate for a day.
Ask your consignee for the entry requirements before you book, and share the contact person's number with us. We pass it to the driver so he can call ahead from Dhanbad.
What usually goes from Delhi to Bokaro
- Motors, pumps, cables and switchgear from the Delhi NCR electrical trade
- Bearings, fasteners, hand tools and hardware for maintenance stores
- Safety shoes, helmets and workwear in bulk cartons
- FMCG, packaged food and consumer durables for Bokaro distributors
- Pipes, fittings and building material for construction work in the town
For bulky but light cargo like cartons of workwear, a container is the better choice because it keeps the load dry and sealed. For dense items like bearings or fasteners, check the weight first; it often fits a smaller Eicher than people expect.
Picking a truck for this lane
On a run of 1,200 km the trip cost is close to proportional to the distance, so oversizing the truck costs real money. Use the truck size guide if you are unsure about dimensions, or send us the packing list and weight and we will suggest a vehicle. Closed containers are the default for anything that should not get wet; for steel structures or long pipes, an open body works, and you can read more on our open truck page.

Indicative fares, checked September 2026. Freight rates move with route, vehicle type, cargo, date and availability. Confirm the current rate at booking.
These figures are a guide, not a fixed price. Rates move with diesel, demand on the eastern lanes, the vehicle and the date, so the confirmed rate is the one shown when you book.
One honest note: this is not a scheduled daily service. You get one dedicated truck for your load, on the day you need it. Book two to three days ahead, especially before Diwali and Chhath, when trucks heading towards Bihar and Jharkhand get booked up quickly.
If you load from other NCR points too, see hiring a truck in Delhi or truck hire in Noida.
Questions shippers ask about Delhi to Bokaro
How far is Bokaro from Delhi by road?
About 1,200 km on the NH19 route through Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. The exact figure moves a little depending on where in Delhi NCR you load and where in Bokaro you unload.
How many days will the truck take?
Plan on 2-3 days. The driver stops at night, and loading and unloading time is on top of that.
What does a 19FT truck cost for this route?
A 19FT Eicher from Delhi to Bokaro, about 1,200 km, is indicatively Rs.44,400 - Rs.49,200 for the trip, toll included (checked September 2026). Rates are not fixed; confirm the current rate at booking.
And a 32FT container?
A 32FT container (7-8 ton) from Delhi to Bokaro, about 1,200 km, is indicatively Rs.66,000 - Rs.69,600 for the trip, toll included (checked September 2026). Rates are not fixed; confirm the current rate at booking.
Can you deliver inside the steel plant area?
The truck can go wherever the plant allows a vehicle of that size, but the entry pass and paperwork have to come from your consignee. Please arrange it before the truck leaves Delhi, otherwise the truck may wait at the gate.
Do I need an e-way bill?
Yes, for goods valued above Rs.50,000, since the truck crosses state borders. The consignor or consignee generates it. We share the vehicle number at booking so it can be filled in.
Who loads and unloads the truck?
You arrange labour at both ends. We supply the truck and driver. Most Bokaro consignees have their own unloading staff, but confirm this before dispatch.
Can I track the truck?
Yes. GPS tracking runs from dispatch to delivery, and you get a digital Lorry Receipt at loading and a GST invoice after delivery.
What are the payment terms?
Payment is split into three parts: Booking Amount at booking confirmation, 90% at loading once the truck reaches the pickup location, and the remaining Balance at delivery before unloading begins. Accepted: NEFT, IMPS, UPI (PhonePe, GPay), and major debit and credit cards. No cash payments accepted.
Is insurance included?
No. Transit insurance is arranged by the customer. For high-value electrical or machine spares, we recommend taking a policy before loading.
Can I send a small load and share the truck?
No. We book one full truck per consignment, so nobody else's goods ride with yours. If your load is small, a Tata Ace or 14FT Eicher keeps the cost down.
Can I get a truck back from Bokaro to Delhi?
Yes, book it as a separate trip from Bokaro. Rates on the return side are quoted separately and are not fixed either.
