Book Tata AceTata 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 Bada Dost (1.5T) or Tata Ace (up to 1,100 kg) costs less per trip. Above 3T, the 14ft Eicher at 3.5T is the next step up.
What Tata 407 FTL from Chennai Means

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.
