Truck & driver

Hire the vehicle and the pair of hands together

Self-drive van rental sounds cheap until you add it up: the deposit, the fuel, the insurance excess, the afternoon off work, and the back that is still complaining on Tuesday. And you still have to load it yourself.

Truck and driver hire is the other model. You get the vehicle, the trailer and someone who does this for a living, charged per trip or per load, for exactly as long as the job takes.

What people actually use it for

  • Marketplace and Gumtree pickups — the couch you bought that will not fit in the car
  • Deliveries that shops won't do — building supplies, paving, plants, timber
  • One-load removals— a single room, a storage unit, a garage's worth
  • Dump runs — everything you have been meaning to get rid of, in one trip
  • Site support — shifting material between two points on a build
  • Event set-up and strike — tables, gazebos, staging, in and out

Charged by the job, not by the hour on the clock

Per trip or per load, quoted up front. No meter running while you find the keys to the storeroom, and no stopwatch anxiety. Cliff tells you what it costs before he leaves, and that is the number.

Outside a 10 km radius of Gordon's Bay, distance is charged at the standard AA / SARS per-kilometre rate — a published, independent figure rather than a number we made up, so you can check it yourself.

Also on the books

Alongside the truck we quote digger loader and excavator hire for site clearing and levelling, and water tanker rental. Both are quoted on request — see excavator and digger hire for the detail.

Which one do you need?

Truck hire or a skip? An honest answer

These two solve different problems, and the wrong choice costs you money. Here is the rule of thumb Cliff would give you on the phone:

Not sure? Send a photo. Cliff would rather point you at the cheaper option than sell you the wrong one and lose the next job.

FAQ

Questions we get every week

Is this self-drive van hire?
No — the truck comes with Cliff. There is no deposit to put down, no insurance excess to worry about, and no afternoon lost to doing the loading yourself. You are hiring the vehicle and the labour together.
How is truck hire charged?
Per trip or per load, quoted before Cliff leaves, so there is no meter running while you look for the storeroom key. Distance beyond 10 km from Gordon's Bay is added at the standard AA / SARS per-kilometre rate — a published figure you can verify yourself.
Can you collect something I bought on Marketplace?
Yes, that is one of the most common bookings we get. Send Cliff the seller's address, your address and a photo of the item, and he will quote the round trip. Payment to the seller stays between you and them.
Will you help load and unload?
Yes. Loading and unloading are part of the service, including stairs. For unusually heavy single items, mention it up front so the right help is on the job.
Do you do deliveries for shops and suppliers?
Regularly — building supplies, paving, plants, timber and anything else a supplier will sell you but not deliver. Some businesses in the Helderberg use us as their standing delivery run.
Do you hire out excavators and water tankers too?
Yes. Digger loader and excavator hire and water tanker rental are both available, quoted on request. See the excavator and digger hire page for what those jobs typically involve.

How big is your load, really?

Nobody thinks in cubic metres. Everyone can picture a wheelbarrow. Drag the slider to roughly how many barrow loads are sitting there, and we'll tell you what it needs — then send it straight to Cliff.

Load estimator

A builder's wheelbarrow holds about 0.1 m³. Twenty-five of them fill one 2.5 m³ skip.

18
One 2.5 m³ skip

About 1.8 m³ — comfortably inside one 2.5 m³ skip. Leave it standing while you fill it over a day or two, then message Cliff to collect.
