Here's how most customers actually decide between our four sizes.
You're moving a studio or 1-bedroom apartment, sending a small delivery across the city, or transporting a handful of large items like a sofa or wardrobe. It's the most manoeuvrable and cheapest per hour.
You have a 2-bedroom home to move, run regular retail or e-commerce deliveries, or are relocating a small-to-medium office. It's our most booked size because it balances capacity and cost.
You're moving a 3-bedroom villa, relocating a full office, transferring stock between warehouses, or transporting heavy commercial equipment that the 5 ton would struggle to fit in one trip.
You need maximum payload for bulk cargo, a 4+ bedroom villa move, heavy machinery transport, or a full-scale logistics operation where fewer trips means real time and cost savings.
Three reasons customers regret guessing on truck size.
Booking a 3 ton for a 2-BR home usually means a second trip — doubling your driver hours and total cost for the day.
A 10 ton truck for a studio move means paying premium hourly rates for space and payload you'll never use.
Matching the truck to your actual load gets the job done in one trip, at the lowest total cost — every time.
The four most common box pickup truck sizes in Dubai — 3 ton, 5 ton, 7 ton and 10 ton — cover almost every residential and commercial transport need in the city. The right choice usually comes down to two questions: how much are you moving, and how many trips are you willing to make?
Payload (weight capacity) matters most for dense items like books, tiles, machinery or palletised goods. Cargo volume matters most for bulky-but-light items like furniture, mattresses and appliances. A 2-bedroom apartment, for example, is usually a volume problem more than a weight problem — which is exactly why the 5 ton's larger cargo box, not just its higher payload, is what makes it the right fit.
In most single-location residential and commercial jobs, though, one correctly-sized truck is both faster and cheaper than two smaller ones. If you’re not sure, just tell us what you’re moving — we’ll always recommend the most cost-effective option, not the biggest truck.
What customers ask us most before choosing a truck size.
A 5 ton box truck is the right size for most 2-bedroom apartment moves in Dubai. It carries roughly 5,000 kg and 24 to 28 cubic metres — enough for a full living room, two bedrooms, a kitchen and boxes in a single trip. A 3 ton truck often needs two trips for a 2-bedroom home, while a 7 ton is more than needed unless you have unusually heavy or bulky furniture.
A 3 ton box truck carries up to about 3,000 kg across 16 to 18 cubic metres and suits studio or 1-bedroom moves and small deliveries. A 5 ton box truck carries up to about 5,000 kg across 24 to 28 cubic metres, making it the better choice for 2-bedroom homes, larger office moves and regular retail deliveries. The 5 ton costs more per hour but often needs fewer trips, so it can work out more cost-effective for bigger jobs.
A 7 ton box truck comfortably handles most 3-bedroom villa moves and large office relocations. Step up to a 10 ton truck if you have a 4+ bedroom villa, a full warehouse transfer, heavy machinery, or a large volume of bulk cargo that would otherwise need two trips in a 7 ton truck.
Yes. If you’re not sure which size fits your load, describe what you’re moving when you call or WhatsApp us and we’ll recommend the right size before dispatch — so you rarely need to switch after booking. If more capacity turns out to be needed on the day, we can usually arrange a larger truck the same day.
Not necessarily. A bigger truck costs more per hour, so if your load fits comfortably in a smaller size, booking the smaller truck is usually cheaper overall. A larger truck only becomes better value when it saves you from needing two separate trips in a smaller one.
