Tata Ace
Live rate at booking
Book Tata AceCan two units share one tempo? Short answer: no
It is the question we hear most from Sanathnagar. Two job-work shops in the industrial estate each have 400 kg for Pune, and it seems obvious to put both on one vehicle. We do not book that. Every TruckGuru tempo carries a single consignment from one pickup to one drop, and that is the reason our trips run to a fixed time instead of waiting for a second shipper to be ready.
What we do book: a Tata Ace or Bada Dost class vehicle with driver, loaded at your gate in Sanathnagar, going straight to a receiver more than 100 km away. We do not do deliveries within Hyderabad.
If you really want to combine two loads
It can work, but only as one consignment. One of the two firms takes the other's goods into its own dispatch, raises its own document, and books the tempo as the sole consignor. The receiver has to be one address as well.
In practice, when two small loads are going to the same customer, it usually makes more sense to ship them together on a single Tata Ace this way. When they are going to two customers in the same city, two tempos or a staggered pair of bookings is cleaner. The paperwork alone decides it: one vehicle, one set of documents, one receiver.
How Sanathnagar loads are sized
The estate supplies machined parts, fabrication, electrical panels and spares to plants across Maharashtra and Karnataka. Typical sizes we see:
- Machined parts in crates, 300-900 kg: a standard Ace / Dost / Pickup (up to 1,100 kg)
- Panels and enclosures that must stay upright and dry: a closed-body Bada Dost, up to 1.5 ton
- Fabricated frames over 2 metres long: a 14FT Eicher (3.5 ton), since the tempo deck is too short
- Steel sections or a month of supply: a 19FT Eicher (7 ton)
Deck lengths are on the truck size guide. Length catches people out more often than weight here.
The western lanes and what they take
Pune is about 560 km and a tempo usually needs 1 - 2 days. Mumbai is about 710 km, also usually 1 - 2 days with a rest stop. For Bidar, about 140 km, same-day delivery possible if the truck loads early; otherwise next day. Solapur, about 300 km on the Pune road, usually takes 1 day. Bangalore, about 570 km to the south, is similar in time to Pune.
The Pune and Mumbai runs cross the Maharashtra border near Umarga, which is where paperwork gets checked. For goods above 50,000 rupees, the consignor or consignee generates the e-way bill before dispatch.
Tempo rates to Pune and Mumbai
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. The figures below are a dated guide for a standard tempo, not a quote.

Sanathnagar questions, answered straight
My neighbour also has 300 kg for Pune. Can we share?
Not as two consignments. If one firm ships both lots under its own documents to one receiver, it is one load and we can book it.
Can I book just a share of a truck at all?
No. TruckGuru books full vehicles only, one consignment per vehicle.
What is the Ace fare to Pune?
An Ace / Dost / Pickup from Sanathnagar to Pune, about 560 km, is indicatively Rs.14,600 - Rs.16,200 for the trip, toll included (checked September 2026). Rates are not fixed; confirm the current rate at booking.
Will a 2.5 metre frame fit in a tempo?
Usually not safely. Send us the dimensions; a 14FT Eicher is the likely answer.
Evening pickup for Pune next morning, possible?
Yes, that is the usual plan. Load by 6 PM and the tempo typically delivers by mid-morning.
Do you deliver to Kukatpally or other parts of Hyderabad?
No. We only book intercity trips over 100 km.
Who loads the crates?
You do. Loading and unloading labour is arranged by the customer.
Can I track it?
Yes, GPS tracking from dispatch to delivery on the app or through our team.
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.
Can I use a tempo for my family's things to Pune?
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.
Do I need an e-way bill for Bidar?
Yes, if the goods are worth more than 50,000 rupees, since it is an interstate trip into Karnataka.
