9-Axle Curtainsider Truck + Pull-Trailer Sets

We hire these sets to businesses and individuals who supply correctly licensed drivers. A Class 5 licence is required, with a Dangerous Goods endorsement when carrying DG. The hirer insures the vehicle for the full term, pays the bond and first week in advance, and complies with the Truck Loading Code and New Zealand heavy vehicle rules.

We publish a guide base of $2,487.53 per week, plus dollars-per-kilometre for Road User Charges at $0.65/km and maintenance at $0.36/km, all GST exclusive. Contracts include a monthly kilometre cap, with excess kilometres charged at $0.50/km. We also offer time-and-mileage pricing using the same per-kilometre matrix if that suits your operation.

We match the truck and 5-axle pull trailer to your route and gross combination mass, then arrange 50MAX or HPMV permits as required for a $200 admin fee. We operate nationwide on permit-compliant routes, keep overall height within the standard 4.3m envelope, and confirm the allowable mass for your unit and route at booking.

Your hire includes scheduled servicing, fair tyre wear, general maintenance, registration, and CoF. Excluded are GST, fuel and AdBlue, insurance, operator-caused damage, infringements, and cleaning if required. Safety kit is included; load bars and straps are available by arrangement. We reconcile kilometres using the odometer, hubodometer, and telematics where relevant.

None of our trucks have tail-lifts. Some Class 5 sets may have mezzanine floors by prior arrangement only, confirmed per unit before you book. Curtains aren't load restraint unless within their rated limits, so plan for suitable load bars, straps, and dunnage.

We can either purchase and on-charge RUC or you can display your own. Distance is reconciled at start and finish and may reference telematics. Contracts include a monthly kilometre cap, with over-cap kilometres billed at $0.50/km on the next invoice under the agreed rate schedule.

Pick-ups happen during business hours with a joint inspection, photos, and licence checks. Returns are also during business hours, with after-hours yard returns available by arrangement. We supply the vehicle full of fuel and ask it's returned at the same level. Cleaning fees, if required, are $200 light or $550 heavy.

Yes. We can deliver or collect your 9-axle truck and trailer set for $50 per hour plus the vehicle's running costs, scheduled by arrangement. Our toll-free breakdown line supports you on the road, and if a truck is off the road more than 96 hours due to a breakdown, we'll provide a replacement subject to availability.
