Frequently Asked Questions

What truck sizes can I hire in Auckland?

We offer several truck sizes, including options with and without tail lifts. If you tell us what you plan to carry, we can recommend a size that fits safely.

Many moving trucks sit within Class 1 limits, but some larger trucks may not. Share your licence class, and we will confirm which trucks you can drive.

Yes, tail lift trucks suit heavy items such as fridges, washing machines, and large cabinets. We can show you the correct lift steps at pickup so you feel confident.

A tail lift helps when you do not have a loading dock or extra help to lift heavy items. A standard truck can still work well if you have strong loading support and ramps.

Flat deck options can suit oversized loads that do not fit in an enclosed box. Tell us the load size and tie-down needs so we can confirm the best match. 

Tipper hire works well for loads that need easy unloading at the destination. Let us know the material type and estimated weight so we can guide you on suitability.

Yes, add-ons such as straps, blankets, and trolleys may be available. It helps to pre-book these items so they are ready at pickup.

A bond may apply, and the amount can vary by vehicle type and cover chosen. We will confirm the exact amount before you pay.

Yes, pickup from Takanini is available and suits South Auckland access. If you prefer Auckland Airport pickup, ask first so we can confirm the arrangement.
