Permanent Truck Hire Sydney
A dedicated truck and driver working only for your business, booked by the day, week or month. Pantechs, tautliners and semis out of Wetherill Park.
Permanent truck hire, without running a fleet
Owning delivery trucks means finance, rego, insurance, servicing and drivers, plus a plan for when someone calls in sick. Permanent truck hire hands that to us instead. You get a truck and driver that work only for you, on your schedule, at an agreed rate.
It suits businesses with steady delivery work. For example, wholesalers doing daily runs, building suppliers sending orders to site, and manufacturers moving stock between factory and warehouse.
Book a few set days a week, every weekday, or a longer arrangement. When the work grows, add another truck. When it changes, we change the arrangement with you.

Why hire a dedicated truck instead of buying one
No trucks on your books
No truck loans, rego, insurance or servicing. Keeping the truck on the road is our job, so your money stays in the business.
A cost you can plan for
An agreed rate for the days you book, so transport becomes a known line in the budget rather than a guess.
One number to call
When something changes, you ring one number and talk to the people running your truck.
Businesses that use permanent truck hire
If you move freight most days, a dedicated truck is usually simpler than booking each job. It also means your customers see the same driver, so the drop offs get quicker as the driver learns your sites.
Because the truck works only for you, you set the order of the runs and the start time. Then we make it happen.
- Wholesalers and distributors with daily delivery runs
- Building and trade suppliers delivering to site
- Manufacturers moving stock between sites
- Retailers with regular store and customer deliveries
- Businesses whose own driver has left and need cover now
Pick the truck for your freight
We match the truck to what you carry, so you are not paying for a semi when a pantech will do.
Pantechs
Fully enclosed bodies that keep cartons, furniture and stock dry and secure.
Tautliners
Curtains open along the whole side, so a forklift can load pallets straight on and off.
Semi trailers
For full loads of up to 22 pallets, on a schedule that suits your warehouse.

Permanent truck hire questions
How is this different from taxi truck hire?
Taxi truck hire is one job at a time, charged by the hour. Permanent truck hire gives you a truck and driver on a set schedule, at an agreed rate, for as long as you need them.
Do you supply drivers only, to drive our trucks?
No. Permanent hire with FMTS always comes with one of our trucks and our driver.
How many days do I have to book?
That depends on your work. Some clients book a few set days a week, others every weekday. Tell us what you need and we will price it.
What happens if the driver is sick?
We arrange another driver, so your runs still go out.
Can the truck do after hours or weekend runs?
Yes. We run 24/7, so early starts, night deliveries and weekend runs can all be part of the schedule.
Are the goods insured?
Yes, we carry goods in transit insurance. We can also send a certificate of currency when a site asks for one.
How is it invoiced?
You are invoiced for the days booked and pay within 7 days of each invoice.
