A guideline to Truck & Pickup rental rate within Dhaka City
- On August 31, 2020
In order to move our goods from one place to another in our day to day life, we often are required to hire a truck or pickup. And while doing so, the first thing that comes to mind is how much it might cost.
Those who are involved with businesses, often hire trucks or pickups for transporting goods on a daily basis. Hence, businessmen always have a good idea about fare. But those who are hiring a truck or pickup for the first time, usually have no idea about the cost, so they often have to pay more than the market rate.
An easy solution to hiring a truck or pickup at market rate might be to use the “Truck Lagbe” app. Because when you will hire a truck using the app, the truck owners will directly let you know the fare by bidding. Then, all you have to do is to choose the fare that you like. Here are the benefits of doing so:
1. You will be able to understand the market rate yourself, as multiple owners/drivers will be informing you about the fare of the same route.
2. Since many will be offering their fare, you will be assured of getting your truck at a competitive rate, even if you don’t have any prior idea about the rate.
Hence, you can hire a truck, covered van or pickup using the app without any worries.

Rental rate for Trucks or Pickups in any district within Bangladesh
Truck or Pickup fares for longer routes depend on myriads of factors, including –
1. The exact address of the place from where the goods will be moved
2. Type and amount of goods to be transported
3. The type and size of truck needed
4. The market rate based on ongoing demand on the day when the truck will be hired.
For the aforementioned reasons, the fare of truck or pickup varies for transporting goods across districts in Bangladesh. And that’s why, it’s not possible to directly figure out a fixed rate for hiring trucks outside Dhaka.
