Eicher 14ft Truck Hire -- Intercity FTL Booking

Vehicle: 14ft Eicher / Tata -- up to 3.5 tonnes load capacity

Service: Full Truckload (FTL) intercity only -- 110+ cities across India

Booking: Confirmed rate before dispatch, GPS tracking throughout

The 14ft Eicher or Tata truck (also called LCV or light commercial truck) sits between the Bada Dost and the 20ft truck in TruckGuru's fleet. At up to 3.5 tonnes load capacity, it handles most B2B interstate freight that is too large for a mini truck but does not need a full 20ft or 32ft container. FMCG distribution from a regional factory, retail stock from a wholesale market, pharma formulations from a manufacturing cluster -- these consignments typically move in a 14ft truck.

On TruckGuru, the 14ft truck is bookable on FTL intercity routes across 110+ cities. Your goods travel alone from pickup to delivery -- no co-loading, no shared consignments. The rate confirmed at booking is the rate on your invoice.

14ft Eicher Truck -- Load Capacity and What Fits

Load capacity: Up to 3.5 tonnes

Body type: Enclosed with tarpaulin cover or full body -- weather protection throughout

Best for: FMCG distribution, auto components, pharma, engineering goods, textiles

As a guide: 3.5 tonnes is approximately 200-250 standard FMCG cartons, or 3,500 kg of auto components, or a mid-volume pharma batch from a regional factory.

Which Truck Size to Book

The 14ft truck is the right choice when your load is between 1.5 tonnes and 3.5 tonnes. For loads outside that range:

• Under 1.5 tonnes -- book Bada Dost / Chota Hathi (1.5 tonnes, same per-km rate as Tata Ace)
• 1.5 to 3.5 tonnes -- book 14ft Eicher/Tata (this vehicle)
• 3.5 to 6.5 tonnes -- book 20ft truck
• 6.5 to 15 tonnes -- book 32ft container

If your load is exactly at the boundary -- say 3.3 tonnes -- the 14ft fits. At 3.6 tonnes, step up to the 20ft. A truck that is overloaded gets stopped at checkposts; booking the correct size prevents delays.

Why Businesses Book 14ft Trucks Through TruckGuru

Every 14ft truck listed on TruckGuru goes through RC and fitness certificate verification before being made available for booking. For pharmaceutical shippers and auto component suppliers where documentation accuracy is a compliance requirement, unverified operators are not an option. An overloaded or unfit vehicle stopped at a state border checkpost on a 13-15 hour Mumbai-Bangalore run adds hours to the transit and delays the supply chain at the receiving end.

The rate quoted at booking is what appears on your invoice. Toll charges are separate and communicated before confirmation. No fuel surcharges at pickup, no loading fees after dispatch. The 14ft truck rate from TruckGuru at booking matches what the Mumbai or Delhi operations team budgeted -- not a revised figure that arrives with the invoice.

GPS tracking is live on every dispatched 14ft booking through the TruckGuru mobile app. For shippers coordinating delivery windows with a receiver at the other end -- a Bangalore warehouse preparing a dock slot for a Mumbai FMCG consignment -- that visibility removes the need to call the driver mid-route.

FAQs -- 14ft Eicher Truck Hire

What is the load capacity of a 14ft Eicher truck?

The 14ft Eicher or Tata truck on TruckGuru carries up to 3.5 tonnes. It is the most commonly booked mid-range truck for FMCG distribution, pharma, auto components, and retail stock on intercity routes.

What does a 14ft truck cost per km in India?

TruckGuru prices the 14ft truck per trip on a base rate plus per-km formula. A 14ft on a 500 km corridor (Mumbai-Hyderabad) runs approximately Rs. 18,600-20,600. On a 1,000 km corridor (Mumbai-Delhi direction), approximately Rs. 34,100-38,100. Toll charges are paid separately. Use the transportation cost calculator for a specific route rate.

Should I book a 14ft truck or a 20ft truck for my load?

If your load is under 3.5 tonnes, book the 14ft. It costs less per trip than a 20ft and is the correct vehicle for that weight range. If your load is between 3.5 tonnes and 6.5 tonnes, book the 20ft. Overloading a 14ft creates compliance risk at checkposts.

Are toll charges included in the 14ft truck hire rate?

No. Toll charges are paid separately by the shipper during transit. The base freight rate covers the truck, driver, and fuel.

What documents do I need for a 14ft truck booking?

Invoice or delivery challan for your consignment. E-way bill for consignments above Rs. 50,000 crossing state borders -- generate before loading. The truck owner handles vehicle permits, insurance, and interstate documentation.

Can I track my 14ft Eicher truck during transit?

Yes. GPS tracking goes live once the truck is dispatched, accessible through the TruckGuru mobile app on Android or iOS. You receive the driver's direct contact at booking confirmation.

Does TruckGuru operate Eicher 17ft or 19ft trucks?

No. TruckGuru's fleet covers Tata Ace (750 kg), Bada Dost/Chota Hathi (1.5 tonnes), 14ft Eicher/Tata (3.5 tonnes), 20ft truck (6.5 tonnes), and 32ft container (15 tonnes). Eicher 17ft and 19ft are not in the fleet. For loads between 3.5 and 6.5 tonnes, the 20ft truck is the right vehicle. See the truck size guide for full fleet details.

The 14ft truck hire rate is confirmed before dispatch. Check your rate on the freight calculator or call 72020 45678 for same-day availability across India.
