Eicher 14ft Truck Hire -- Intercity FTL Booking
Vehicle: 14ft Eicher / Tata -- up to 3.5 tonnes load capacity
Service: Full Truckload (FTL) intercity only -- 110+ cities across India
Booking: Confirmed rate before dispatch, GPS tracking throughout
The 14ft Eicher or Tata truck (also called LCV or light commercial truck) sits between the Bada Dost and the 20ft truck in TruckGuru's fleet. At up to 3.5 tonnes load capacity, it handles most B2B interstate freight that is too large for a mini truck but does not need a full 20ft or 32ft container. FMCG distribution from a regional factory, retail stock from a wholesale market, pharma formulations from a manufacturing cluster -- these consignments typically move in a 14ft truck.
On TruckGuru, the 14ft truck is bookable on FTL intercity routes across 110+ cities. Your goods travel alone from pickup to delivery -- no co-loading, no shared consignments. The rate confirmed at booking is the rate on your invoice.

14ft Eicher Truck -- Load Capacity and What Fits
Load capacity: Up to 3.5 tonnes
Body type: Enclosed with tarpaulin cover or full body -- weather protection throughout
Best for: FMCG distribution, auto components, pharma, engineering goods, textiles
As a guide: 3.5 tonnes is approximately 200-250 standard FMCG cartons, or 3,500 kg of auto components, or a mid-volume pharma batch from a regional factory.

Which Truck Size to Book
The 14ft truck is the right choice when your load is between 1.5 tonnes and 3.5 tonnes. For loads outside that range:
- Under 1.5 tonnes -- book Bada Dost / Chota Hathi (1.5 tonnes, same per-km rate as Tata Ace)
- 1.5 to 3.5 tonnes -- book 14ft Eicher/Tata (this vehicle)
- 3.5 to 6.5 tonnes -- book 20ft truck
- 6.5 to 15 tonnes -- book 32ft container
If your load is exactly at the boundary -- say 3.3 tonnes -- the 14ft fits. At 3.6 tonnes, step up to the 20ft. A truck that is overloaded gets stopped at checkposts; booking the correct size prevents delays.

Why Businesses Book 14ft Trucks Through TruckGuru
Every 14ft truck listed on TruckGuru goes through RC and fitness certificate verification before being made available for booking. For pharmaceutical shippers and auto component suppliers where documentation accuracy is a compliance requirement, unverified operators are not an option. An overloaded or unfit vehicle stopped at a state border checkpost on a 13-15 hour Mumbai-Bangalore run adds hours to the transit and delays the supply chain at the receiving end.
The rate quoted at booking is what appears on your invoice. Toll charges are separate and communicated before confirmation. No fuel surcharges at pickup, no loading fees after dispatch. The 14ft truck rate from TruckGuru at booking matches what the Mumbai or Delhi operations team budgeted -- not a revised figure that arrives with the invoice.
GPS tracking is live on every dispatched 14ft booking through the TruckGuru mobile app. For shippers coordinating delivery windows with a receiver at the other end -- a Bangalore warehouse preparing a dock slot for a Mumbai FMCG consignment -- that visibility removes the need to call the driver mid-route.
FAQs -- 14ft Eicher Truck Hire
What is the load capacity of a 14ft Eicher truck?
The 14ft Eicher or Tata truck on TruckGuru carries up to 3.5 tonnes. It is the most commonly booked mid-range truck for FMCG distribution, pharma, auto components, and retail stock on intercity routes.
What does a 14ft truck cost per km in India?
TruckGuru prices the 14ft truck per trip on a base rate plus per-km formula. A 14ft on a 500 km corridor (Mumbai-Hyderabad) runs approximately Rs. 18,600-20,600. On a 1,000 km corridor (Mumbai-Delhi direction), approximately Rs. 34,100-38,100. Toll charges are paid separately. Use the transportation cost calculator for a specific route rate.
Should I book a 14ft truck or a 20ft truck for my load?
If your load is under 3.5 tonnes, book the 14ft. It costs less per trip than a 20ft and is the correct vehicle for that weight range. If your load is between 3.5 tonnes and 6.5 tonnes, book the 20ft. Overloading a 14ft creates compliance risk at checkposts.
Are toll charges included in the 14ft truck hire rate?
No. Toll charges are paid separately by the shipper during transit. The base freight rate covers the truck, driver, and fuel.
What documents do I need for a 14ft truck booking?
Invoice or delivery challan for your consignment. E-way bill for consignments above Rs. 50,000 crossing state borders -- generate before loading. The truck owner handles vehicle permits, insurance, and interstate documentation.
Can I track my 14ft Eicher truck during transit?
Yes. GPS tracking goes live once the truck is dispatched, accessible through the TruckGuru mobile app on Android or iOS. You receive the driver's direct contact at booking confirmation.
Does TruckGuru operate Eicher 17ft or 19ft trucks?
No. TruckGuru's fleet covers Tata Ace (750 kg), Bada Dost/Chota Hathi (1.5 tonnes), 14ft Eicher/Tata (3.5 tonnes), 20ft truck (6.5 tonnes), and 32ft container (15 tonnes). Eicher 17ft and 19ft are not in the fleet. For loads between 3.5 and 6.5 tonnes, the 20ft truck is the right vehicle. See the truck size guide for full fleet details.
The 14ft truck hire rate is confirmed before dispatch. Check your rate on the freight calculator or call 72020 45678 for same-day availability across India.

How do I book a truck through TruckGuru?
Three ways:
- Website -- go to truckguru.co.in, enter your pickup and drop city, select the truck type, and check the estimated fare.
- App -- download the TruckGuru app from Play Store, register, and follow the same steps.
- Phone -- call 72020 45678 and our executive will take your details over the call.
Once you confirm, pay the token amount via UPI, NEFT, or IMPS. Our team verifies your details and places the vehicle at your pickup location.
How can I check the freight cost for my route?
Use the freight calculator on our website -- enter the pickup city, drop city, and truck type. You will see an estimated fare instantly. No login needed, no obligation to book. The final rate is confirmed by our executive after verifying your exact locations, material weight, and goods type. On most routes, the final fare stays close to the online estimate.
Is the online estimate the final fare?
No. The website and app show an estimated cost based on standard distance calculations. The final fare is confirmed by our executive after verifying your exact pickup and drop location, material weight, and goods type. The fare can vary for off-highway locations or routes that require detours. Nothing is charged without your confirmation first.

Not sure which fits your load? Share the weight and volume with our team and they will recommend the right vehicle.
What is Full Truckload (FTL) service?
FTL means the entire truck is booked for your goods alone -- no sharing space with other shippers. The truck picks up from your location and goes straight to the destination without stopping for other consignments. This is the only service TruckGuru offers. We do not handle part loads (PTL) or shared shipments. FTL means faster transit, fewer handling points, and lower risk of damage.
What are the payment terms?
Payment is split into three parts: a token amount at booking confirmation, 90% of the fare at the time of loading once the truck reaches your pickup location, and the remaining balance at the destination before unloading begins. We accept NEFT, IMPS, UPI (GPay, PhonePe, Paytm), and all major debit and credit cards.
What are the GST charges on freight?
GST on goods transport is payable under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) at 5%. This means the shipper (you) is responsible for filing and paying the GST on the transport service, not TruckGuru. Our invoices are GST-compliant and include all the details your accounts team needs for filing.
Who generates the e-Way Bill?
The consignor or consignee must generate Part A and Part B of the e-Way Bill before the goods move. This is mandatory under GST rules for consignments valued above Rs.50,000. TruckGuru does not generate the e-Way Bill on your behalf, but our team can guide you through the process if needed.
How will I receive my invoice and LR?
A GST-compliant invoice is auto-generated and sent to your registered email once the consignment is delivered. The LR (Lorry Receipt) is shared at the time of dispatch. If your accounts team needs a specific format or a consolidated monthly statement for multiple shipments, write to cs@truckguru.co.in.
What are the waiting charges?
If the truck reaches your location and loading is delayed, waiting charges range from Rs.1,000 to Rs.5,000 per day depending on the vehicle type. If the vehicle is not loaded at all and returns empty, the customer must pay the driver's fuel charges plus the applicable waiting charge. Keep your goods and paperwork (GST invoice, e-Way Bill, packing list) ready before the truck arrives to avoid delays.
Can I book a truck in advance?
Yes. We accept bookings with as little as one hour's notice, but booking 24-48 hours ahead gives us a better chance of matching the exact truck type you need -- especially for 32ft containers or during peak months like October to December. For businesses with regular shipments, we also arrange scheduled pickups on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.
Can I cancel my booking?
Yes. Call 72020 45678 to request cancellation. Once vehicle or driver details have been shared with you, the booking amount is non-refundable. If the truck has already been dispatched toward your location, no refund is issued and the customer is liable for fuel charges. If the cancellation is accepted before dispatch, a cancellation fee applies and the refund is processed within 7 working days.
What types of goods can I transport?
We transport commercial and industrial goods -- machinery, raw materials, FMCG products, textiles, auto parts, building materials, electronics, and agriculture produce. We do not transport household shifting items, personal belongings for relocation, hazardous materials requiring special permits, or any restricted goods under Indian transport regulations.
Do you provide loading, unloading, or packing?
Our service covers transportation only. The quoted freight rate does not include labour charges. If you need help arranging loading or unloading labour, we can assist at extra cost, but we do not guarantee the availability or quality of third-party labour services.
Which cities does TruckGuru cover?
We operate across 110+ cities in India. Our strongest network covers Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Pune, Surat, Vadodara, Jaipur, Indore, and Kochi. For routes between smaller cities, call us -- if there is a road connecting the two points and the distance is intercity, we can usually arrange a truck within 24-48 hours.
Do you handle parcels, courier, bikes, or car transport?
No. TruckGuru provides full truckload (FTL) intercity goods transport only. We do not handle parcels, courier shipments, bike transport, car transport, household shifting (no 1BHK/2BHK/3BHK moves), or within-city local deliveries. If you need these services, we recommend contacting a specialist provider in your city.
What happens if my goods are damaged during transit?
Report any damage immediately upon delivery to our customer care team at 72020 45678 with photographs. We investigate each claim on a case-by-case basis. We strongly recommend that shippers arrange their own transit insurance for high-value consignments, as TruckGuru's liability is limited to the terms agreed at the time of booking.
How do I contact TruckGuru?
Call 72020 45678 or email booking@truckguru.co.in for booking queries. For credit facility or account-related questions, write to cs@truckguru.co.in. Our customer support team is available Monday to Saturday, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM. TruckGuru does not share your contact details with any outside agencies -- only our in-house executives will reach out to you.
Tips for Booking a Truck
Start with the weight and type of goods you need to move, not the truck size. A 2-ton consignment fits an Eicher 14FT (3.5T capacity), while anything above 7 tons usually needs a 32FT container. Picking the right vehicle upfront saves you from paying for space you do not use.
Always get a confirmed rate before the truck is dispatched. On TruckGuru, the price shown at booking is the price you pay. The payment split is 5% at booking, 90% at loading, and 5% before unloading. If any platform or broker tries to revise the rate at the loading dock, treat that as a red flag.
Check that the transporter provides live GPS tracking and digital documentation including LR, invoice, and POD. Calling the driver every few hours for location updates wastes time, especially on high-volume corridors where even a small delay can throw off your warehouse unloading schedule.
Book 2 to 3 days ahead when possible. Same-day availability is common on most routes, but during October to December peak season, trucks on busy corridors fill up fast. Advance booking also gives you better vehicle options for goods that need closed-body or containerised transport.
