Truck Sizes in India – Compare Types, Dimensions & Load Capacity

Truck sizes usually create the biggest confusion for businesses.  Are you facing the same issue?

With TruckGuru, choosing the right truck becomes easier. We offer a huge range of commercial truck sizes in India, all available for easy online booking. Be it transporting industrial cargo, raw material, large machinery or eCommerce deliveries, choosing the right truck size in India can minimize costs and support safe and efficient delivery.

Why Choosing the Right Truck Size in India Matters

Selecting the appropriate logistics truck size doesn’t just impact your transport efficiency, but it also directly affects your budget. If the truck is too big or too small, it may not serve your purpose. Overloading a truck can result in penalties and damage to your goods, whereas under-utilising one means wasted space and higher per-unit costs. That’s why it is important to hire the best truck size for transporting your shipment.

We offer trucks in various truck categories, each tailored to specific load types and distance requirements. Explore the most widely used truck sizes in India below:

Truck Categories Based on Load Capacity

Confused about which truck can handle your cargo load? Get clarity by learning about truck load capacity in India and match your shipment with the right truck.

Here’s a quick guide to truckload capacity in India across categories:

1. Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) – Up to 5 Tons

Why pay for a big truck when a smaller one will do? LCVs are fuel-efficient vehicles that easily move through city streets and tight spaces.

Examples: Tata Ace, Mahindra Bolero Pickup, Ashok Leyland Dost

 Best for: Short-distance delivery, local courier, small distributors, and eCommerce deliveries.

2. Medium Commercial Vehicles (MCVs) – 5 to 16 Tons

These trucks are great for carrying medium loads of cargo like machine parts, packed goods, or heavy retail items. They’re a smart choice for growing businesses that need more space without choosing a very heavy truck size.

Examples: Tata 1109, Ashok Leyland Ecomet, Tata 407, Mahindra Furio 7
Best for: Regional transport, warehousing movements, textiles, electronics, auto parts, chemicals, and building materials.

3. Heavy Commercial Vehicles (HCVs) – 16 to 49 Tons

Is your business moving heavy loads over long distances? HCVs provide maximum capacity for heavy goods transportation across states. Its truck size and capacity provide the most cost-effective solution for large shipments.

Examples: Tata 1618, Mahindra Blazo, Ashok Leyland 2518

Best for: Manufacturers, wholesalers, and large distribution companies that deal in long-haul, heavy cargo and containerised freight.

How to Choose the Right Truck Size for Your Transport Needs?

When booking a truck, consider the following:

  • Truck Dimensions in Feet: Before you rent a truck, check its dimensions. Make sure the truck can enter loading areas and pass under bridges or gates along the way.
  • Load Capacity vs. Volume: Don’t just look at weight—big, light items may still need a larger truck. Always match both truck size and capacity to pick the right vehicle.
  • Distance & Terrain: Use lighter trucks for city deliveries and multi-axle heavy trucks for longer state routes. Consider road conditions and distance to keep your cargo safe.
  • Transport Costs:  Bigger trucks may cut costs on heavy loads but have higher fuel and toll charges. Small trucks are cheaper for short trips and light goods.

Common truck types in India include LCVs like Tata Ace and pickups, MCVs such as Eicher 14–19 ft, and HCVs like containers (20-32) Ft. 

  • How do I choose the right commercial truck size in India?

To select the best truck size for transport, evaluate your cargo’s weight and volume, the travel distance, road or route limitations (like bridge clearances), and your budget. Using the right truck size in India helps avoid underloading or overloading issues, saving time and reducing logistics costs.

Open body trucks come in sizes like 14 ft, 17 ft, 19 ft, and 22 ft. The size you choose depends on the load type and volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are TruckGuru — a truck booking company that works directly with businesses across India. No brokers, no middlemen. If you need to move goods from one city to another — whether it's 100 kg or a full truckload — we find you the right vehicle at a fair price. We've worked with businesses of all sizes, from small traders to large manufacturers, and we understand that when your goods need to move, delays and confusion are the last things you need.

At the core, we help businesses book trucks — but our work goes beyond that. We also help you manage your fleet, track shipments, and keep your warehousing in order. In short, anything that touches moving goods, we are involved in it:

  • Online Truck Booking
  • Transportation Management
  • Fleet Management
  • Route Planning
  • Real-Time Shipment Tracking

We are not just a booking platform — we are a logistics partner you can call when something goes wrong too.

Simply put — you save time, money, and unnecessary stress. Here is what you get when you work with us:

  • Pricing based on the actual market rate — no inflated broker quotes
  • Trucks confirmed quickly, usually within the same day
  • A large network of verified trucks available across India
  • Live GPS so you always know where your shipment is
  • LR, invoice, and POD — all digital, no chasing for paperwork
  • Someone to call 24/7 if anything needs attention

It takes just a few minutes. Here is how it works:

  1. Download the TruckGuru app from Play Store or App Store — or just open our website.
  2. Register or log in to your account.
  3. Enter where the goods need to be picked up and delivered, and what you are sending.
  4. Pick the truck size that fits your load.
  5. Check the fare shown on screen — no hidden extras.
  6. Confirm the booking and you are done.
  7. From there, you can track the truck live until your goods are delivered.

If you get stuck at any step, just call us — we will help you get the booking done.

Just enter the pickup city, delivery city, and roughly how much your goods weigh — you will see a price range on the spot. No need to call anyone or wait for a quote. Once you confirm the booking, we share the final rate before any truck is dispatched your way.

We have vehicles for all kinds of loads — small or large. Whether you need a mini truck for a local delivery or a full container for an inter-state shipment, we have it covered:

  • Tata Ace / Bolero Pickup — for small loads and city deliveries
  • Eicher / Tata 19 ft LCV — for medium-sized consignments
  • 14 ft / 17 ft Closed Body Trucks — for goods that need weather protection
  • 20 ft / 24 ft Container Trucks — for bulk and long-distance movement

Not sure which one fits your load? Our team will help you pick the right option.

FTL simply means the entire truck is yours — no other goods will share the space. The truck picks up from your location and goes straight to the destination without stopping anywhere in between. This is usually the best choice when you have a large quantity to move or when delivery time really matters. Fewer stops also means fewer chances of damage or delay.

Once your booking is confirmed, your LR (Lorry Receipt) and invoice are sent directly to your registered WhatsApp number or email. You can also download them anytime from your TruckGuru account. No need to wait, call, or follow up — the documents are ready as soon as the booking goes through.

Yes — every truck on our platform has GPS. Once your shipment is on the move, you can see exactly where it is from the app. No more calling the driver every few hours to ask "bhai kahan tak pahunche?" — you can check it yourself anytime. You can also share the tracking link with your buyer or warehouse team so they know when to expect the delivery.

Yes, you can. Just select your dispatch date when placing the booking and we will arrange the truck for that day. Advance booking also helps us get you better availability — especially during busy seasons when trucks fill up fast.

Yes. If you need to pick up goods from more than one location, or deliver to multiple destinations in one trip, we handle that too. Just mention the stops when placing your booking and our team will plan the route accordingly.

Yes, you can cancel. If the truck has not yet left for your pickup point, cancellation is generally free. If the truck is already on its way, a cancellation charge may apply — because the driver has already committed his time and fuel. We keep this transparent, so the exact terms are shared at the time of booking itself.

Our truck fare covers transportation only — loading, unloading, and packing are not part of the standard service. If you need help arranging labour or packing at your location, reach out to our team and we will try to connect you with someone in your area. We do not want you to be stuck without options.

We carry most general goods — machinery, auto parts, FMCG products, electronics, furniture, building materials, agricultural produce and more. The only things we do not carry are hazardous chemicals, flammable liquids, and similar restricted materials. If you are unsure whether your goods qualify, just call us before booking and we will confirm on the spot.

Payment is split into two parts. First, a freight advance is paid when the truck arrives at your loading point. The remaining balance is settled once the goods are delivered. The exact breakdown is shared with you at the time of booking — no surprises later.

We accept all standard payment modes — whatever is convenient for you:

  • NEFT / RTGS / IMPS
  • UPI — GPay, PhonePe, Paytm
  • Net Banking

Once delivery is done, the driver uploads the POD from his end. You will receive it on your registered WhatsApp or email, and it will also be available to download from your TruckGuru account. No waiting around — it comes through as soon as the delivery is marked complete.

Once the truck is assigned, the driver's number is shared with you through your TruckGuru account. You can call him directly. If for some reason you cannot reach the driver or have a concern, our support team is available around the clock to step in and help.

Go to the Support or Help section in your TruckGuru account and raise a ticket from there. You can also call or email our customer care team directly — whichever is faster for you. We take complaints seriously and aim to respond and resolve quickly, not just acknowledge and forget.

The moment you enter your route and cargo details, an estimated price appears on screen — no waiting. Once you confirm the booking, the final rate from the truck owner is usually shared within 30 to 60 minutes. You are not kept waiting for hours like with traditional brokers.

Yes. We do not onboard just anyone. Every truck owner and driver on our platform goes through a verification process — vehicle registration, valid driving licence, and basic background checks. We do this because your goods are valuable and you deserve to know who is handling them.

Yes. You can share the live tracking link with anyone — your buyer, your warehouse team, or a business partner. They do not need a TruckGuru account to view it. This way, everyone who needs to know where the shipment is can check on their own without having to call you.

It depends on the distance and the route. A Mumbai to Pune delivery is very different from a Delhi to Chennai one. We give you an estimated delivery window at the time of booking, and you can track progress live through the app. If there are any delays due to weather, road conditions, or other factors, we keep you informed.

Yes — we cover routes across PAN India. Whether you are moving goods between major cities, we have truck owners and operators in our network who can service most locations. If you are not sure whether we cover a specific route, just enter it on the app or call us — we will tell you honestly.

Of course. Just enter the pickup city, drop city, and cargo weight — and you will see the price range right away. No login needed, no commitment. We want you to be comfortable with the rate before you decide to book.
