Bakkie hire with a driver in Cape Town

Bakkie hire in Cape Town is usually somebody who has already priced a self-drive rental and stopped at the deposit. Ours arrives with a driver, so there is no licence check, no fuel to replace and no tank to settle afterwards. The busiest runs are Montague Gardens and Paarden Eiland trade collections and once-off loads crossing the metro that a car simply cannot take.

Cape Town is SHIMI's Western Cape lane, and it is a metro built out of four very different delivery problems: the Northern Suburbs around Bellville, the Southern Suburbs along the M3, the Atlantic Seaboard and City Bowl, and the West Coast strip up the R27. We move furniture, appliances and once-off loads across all of them, with the price fixed on distance and vehicle class before you book and a driver who helps load and offload at both ends.

Need a bakkie and a driver in Cape Town without the self-drive rental, deposit or fuel? SHIMI pairs the vehicle with a driver who does the lifting, for once-off loads a car can't take. You describe the load, we suggest the smallest vehicle that fits, and the driver helps load and offload at both ends. The price is fixed upfront from the distance and vehicle class, so a run in Cape Town costs exactly what the quote says. Book online in a couple of minutes, follow the trip on a live link, and get a timestamped photo when it's placed.

Two things decide a Cape Town delivery, and neither is the distance. The first is the building: Sea Point, Green Point and the CBD are full of older blocks with small lifts, no loading bay and paid street parking, so the carry is the job. The second is the wind. The South-Easter runs hard along the R27 and across the Cape Flats for days at a time, which matters for a high-sided truck and for anything that has to be covered, and it is why we would rather know what you are moving before we pick the vehicle.
