Book Tata AcePick the hour before you pick the vehicle
A tempo can reach the Hinjewadi flyover from the Mumbai-Bangalore highway in ten minutes at 6 AM. At 9:30 AM the same stretch can take an hour, and Phase 2 and Phase 3 are worse around 6 PM when the campuses empty out. For a small intercity load from Hinjewadi, the loading slot matters more than anything else you decide. Get it wrong and the tempo spends the morning in a queue at Wakad instead of on the expressway.
TruckGuru's tempo service in Hinjewadi books a Tata Ace or Bada Dost class vehicle with driver for loads going over 100 km: Mumbai, Nashik, Kolhapur, Goa and further. One vehicle, one consignment. Trips inside Pune are not something we take.
Slots that work, from what we have seen
- Early morning, 6 to 8 AM. Best for Mumbai. The tempo clears the expressway toll before the office traffic and reaches Navi Mumbai by late morning.
- Late morning, 11 AM to 2 PM. Fine for Kolhapur and Satara going south, when the inbound rush has died down.
- Weekends. Easiest for office loads, but only if your facility team has cleared a Saturday or Sunday gate pass with the campus security in advance.
Avoid a 5 PM loading for anything headed to Mumbai. By the time the tempo is out of Phase 1, the ghat will be heavy too.
What goes in a Hinjewadi tempo
Laptops and desktops in cartons, monitors, network switches, UPS units and battery banks, lab and test equipment, office chairs, and stock from the small e-commerce sellers in Maan and Marunji. Much of it is electronics that must stay dry, so ask for the closed-body version, which carries up to 1.5 ton. An open Ace / Dost / Pickup takes up to 1,100 kg and suits chairs and steel racks with a tarpaulin.
UPS battery banks are heavy for their size. Twenty lead-acid batteries can be close to a tonne on their own. Weigh them, or give us the model and count, before you assume one tempo is enough.
Distances from Hinjewadi
| Destination | Road distance | Tempo road time |
| Navi Mumbai | about 130 km | Same-day delivery possible if the truck loads early; otherwise 1 - 2 days |
| Mumbai (BKC / Andheri) | about 160 km | Same-day delivery possible if the truck loads early; otherwise 1 - 2 days |
| Nashik | about 220 km | 1 day |

| Goa (Panaji) | about 450 km | 1 day |
| Hyderabad | about 570 km | 1 - 2 days |
Hyderabad and Goa trips are long for a small vehicle. For a large office consolidation going that far, a 14FT or 17FT Eicher through our Eicher rental service, or a closed container truck, is usually the better call. You can compare deck sizes on the truck size guide.
Tempo rates from Hinjewadi
Truck freight rates are not fixed. What a load costs depends on the route, vehicle type, load capacity needed, cargo, pickup date and how many trucks are running that lane that week. Quarter-end is when Hinjewadi offices move equipment, and closed tempos for Mumbai get booked out in the last week of March, June, September and December.
TruckGuru pricing is quoted per trip at the time of booking, with toll included.
Current freight rates depend on route, vehicle type, cargo and availability. Check the live rate when booking.
The booking and the paperwork
Book on the website or the TruckGuru app with pickup building and phase, drop address, weight and your slot. We call back within 30 minutes during working hours (Mon-Sat 9:30 AM - 6:30 PM, Sun 9:30 AM - 2:30 PM). A digital Lorry Receipt is issued at loading, the tempo is GPS tracked to delivery, and a GST invoice follows.
IT assets moving between two offices of the same company still need a delivery challan, and an e-way bill when the value is above 50,000 rupees, generated by the consignor or consignee. Your facility or finance team usually handles it. Loading and unloading labour, and transit insurance for costly equipment, are arranged by you.
What facility teams in Hinjewadi ask
Can the tempo come at 6 AM on a Sunday?
Yes, if you book during working hours before that. Get the Sunday gate pass cleared first; the driver cannot wait long at a closed gate.
40 monitors and 4 servers to Navi Mumbai, which vehicle?
A closed-body Ace usually takes that if the servers are not full racks. Send the list on the callback and we confirm.
Do you move things between Hinjewadi and Kharadi?
No. That is inside Pune. We only book intercity trips over 100 km.
Is an e-way bill needed for our own laptops going to our Mumbai office?
If the value is over 50,000 rupees, yes, with a delivery challan. Your consignor or consignee side generates it.
Will our equipment share space with another company's goods?
No. One vehicle per consignment, driven straight to your drop.
Does the driver carry things up to the floor?
No. Loading and unloading labour is arranged by you. Most campuses have an empanelled vendor for this.
Can we insure the servers?
Transit insurance is arranged by the customer. Many companies already have a policy that covers assets in transit; check with your admin team.
How do we follow the tempo?
GPS tracking runs from dispatch to delivery, visible on the app.
An employee wants to send home items to Mumbai, can you help?
Our trucks mostly carry business loads. For a one-off household move to another city, we can supply the truck and driver. Packing, loading and unloading are arranged by you.
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 toll extra on the expressway?
No. Toll is included in the trip quote. Rates are not fixed, so confirm the figure at booking.
