Tata 407 on Rent in Chennai - Intercity FTL Freight
The Tata 407 carries 2.5 to 3 tonnes and sits between the mini truck category and the 14ft Eicher in TruckGuru's intercity fleet. For B2B shippers in Chennai with consignments in the 1.5-3T range -- auto components from Sriperumbudur, pharma dispatches from Ambattur, mid-volume FMCG batches -- the Tata 407 covers the route without paying for unused space in a larger truck.
Use the freight calculator for an instant rate before calling.
The right vehicle depends on your cargo weight. The Tata 407 is correct for loads between 1.5T and 3T. Below 1.5T, the Tata Ace (1,250 kg) or Bada Dost (1.5T) costs less per trip. Above 3T, the 14ft Eicher at 3.5T is the next step up.
What Tata 407 FTL from Chennai Means
TruckGuru books full truck load (FTL) intercity freight only. A Tata 407 booking means:
One dedicated vehicle from your Chennai pickup to the destination city, no co-loading. Direct route from pickup to delivery without intermediate stops. A confirmed rate shown before you book, not quotes from multiple truck owners. Payment: 5% at booking, 90% advance at loading, 5% before unloading.
What this is not: Not local delivery or last-mile courier within Chennai. TruckGuru covers intercity routes above 100 km only. Not available for household shifting or home relocation. Not a marketplace comparing quotes from multiple vehicle owners. Not e-commerce last-mile delivery.

When a Tata 407 Is the Right Choice from Chennai
Chennai's auto OEM cluster at Sriperumbudur and pharma belt at Ambattur generate regular mid-volume intercity dispatches that fall squarely in the 407's range:
Auto component dispatches: 2-3 tonne batches of pressed metal parts, engine components, or sub-assemblies from Sriperumbudur OEM units to assembly plants in Bangalore, Hyderabad, or Pune. Too heavy for a Tata Ace, not enough to fill a 14ft Eicher.
Pharma and chemical shipments: Multi-carton dispatches from Ambattur and Manali manufacturing units to regional distributors. Pharma loads in this weight class often need a dedicated vehicle for compliance and chain-of-custody documentation.
FMCG distributor replenishments: Mid-volume stock transfers from Chennai to regional stockists in Coimbatore, Madurai, or Trichy, where the order size hits 2-2.5 tonnes regularly.
Industrial equipment and spare parts: Factory machinery components, tooling, or CNC parts being sent for servicing or installation at buyer facilities across South India.
Textile and garment dispatches: Fabric rolls or finished garment cartons from Chennai's wholesale markets to retailers in smaller South Indian cities where the consignment fills a 407 but not a full 14-footer.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the load capacity of the Tata 407 on TruckGuru?

Both cost the same per-km (Rs.31-35/km). The 407 carries 2.5-3T while the 14ft Eicher carries 3.5T. If your load is consistently under 3T, the 407 is the right fit. If it regularly touches 3-3.5T, go with the Eicher to avoid overloading risk.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is TruckGuru?
TruckGuru LLP is a full truckload (FTL) intercity truck booking platform with offices in Vadodara and Bangalore, covering 110+ cities across India. We show you the freight cost before you book, match the right truck to your cargo, and handle the booking from pickup to delivery.
How do I book a truck?
Three ways: book online at truckguru.co.in, use the TruckGuru app, or call 72020 45678. Enter your pickup and drop city, select the truck type, and check the estimated fare. Once you confirm, pay the token amount and our team 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. The final rate is confirmed by our executive after verifying your exact locations, material weight, and goods type.
What truck types are available?
Tata Ace (1,250 kg), Bada Dost and Mahindra Pickup (up to 1.5 ton), Eicher 14ft (3.5 ton), 17ft (5 ton), 19ft (7 ton), 20ft Container (6.5 ton), and 32ft Container in SXL (7-8 ton), MXL (16 ton), and MXL (18 ton) variants. Not sure which fits your load? Call us and our team will recommend the right vehicle based on weight and volume.
What are the payment terms?
A token amount at booking confirmation, 90% of the fare at the time of loading, and the remaining balance at the destination before unloading. We accept NEFT, IMPS, UPI (GPay, PhonePe, Paytm), and all major debit and credit cards.
Is the online estimate the final fare?
No. The website shows an estimated cost based on standard distance. The final fare is confirmed by our executive after verifying your exact pickup and drop location, material weight, and goods type. On most routes the final rate stays close to the estimate, but it can vary for off-highway locations or routes requiring detours.
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 and returns empty, the customer must pay driver fuel charges plus the waiting charge.
What are the GST charges on freight?
GST on goods transport is payable under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) at 5%. The shipper is responsible for filing and paying the GST, not TruckGuru. Our invoices are GST-compliant and sent to your registered email after delivery.
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 for consignments valued above Rs.50,000. TruckGuru does not generate the e-Way Bill on your behalf.
Can I cancel my booking?
Yes. Call 72020 45678 to request cancellation. Once vehicle or driver details have been shared, the booking amount is non-refundable. If the truck has already been dispatched, no refund is issued and fuel charges apply. Approved cancellations are refunded (minus cancellation fee) within 7 working days.
Do you provide loading, unloading, or packing?
Our service covers transportation only. If you need labour for loading or unloading, we can help arrange it at extra cost, but we do not guarantee third-party labour services. The quoted freight rate does not include labour charges.
Do you handle parcels, courier, or car transport?
No. TruckGuru provides full truckload (FTL) intercity goods transport only. We do not handle parcels, courier, bike transport, car transport, household shifting, or within-city local deliveries.
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.
