FAQs

What is a tautliner and a curtainside truck?

Tautliners, also known as curtainside trucks, are used to protect goods during transport while enabling efficient loading and unloading. While the name 'Tautliner' originally described a particular brand of vehicle, it has become a generic name used across much of the world. These trucks feature a permanent curtain attached to a runner, with winches used to tension the curtain and make it taut. This helps to protect goods from the elements during transport, and it allows workers and forklifts to access freight from all sides of the vehicle.

How much does it cost to hire a tautliner truck in Australia?

Whether you're carrying out an isolated contract or fulfilling a full-time job, the importance of a reliable vehicle should never be underestimated. Tautliner truck rental is much more affordable than purchasing a vehicle outright, and you can choose the perfect-sized truck for the job at hand. The cost of curtainside truck hire depends on the size of the vehicle and rental period, along with your chosen pick-up and drop-off locations.

Who can hire a tautliner truck?

If you're interested in short-term or long-term curtainside truck rental from Avis, it's important to be aware of licensing requirements. Due to the size and operation of these vehicles, not everyone is able to drive them legally on public roads. Group XA tautliners, which measure 4.2 m in length, require a standard car licence. Group XB and XC vehicles, which measure 6.4 m and 7.3 m in length, respectively, require an MR licence. Group XD trucks, which measure 8.5 m in length, require an HR licence. For any type of tautliner truck hire in Australia, Avis has the perfect vehicle for your needs.
