Bakkie hire with driver in Midrand
Midrand bakkie hire runs off Allandale and the N1: Allandale trade parks, Grand Central light industrial, and Boulders or Kyalami Corner for retail collections. A half-ton handles most of it, and a 1.5-ton takes over when the load stops being a few items and starts being a room. No self-drive deposit, no fuel to settle afterwards, and loading help included both ends.
Midrand's position on the N1 between Joburg and Pretoria makes it one of the easiest areas to service quickly. From Halfway House and Noordwyk to the estates around Waterfall, we move furniture and appliances into and out of the area's many complexes and business parks, priced on distance, with loading help included both ways.
Need a bakkie and a driver in Midrand 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 Midrand 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.

Getting to your door in Midrand
The part most quotes ignore, and the part that decides how long the job takes.
Midrand is two markets sharing a postcode. The Waterfall side is new, dense and access-controlled, where the gate wants pre-authorisation and the lift needs booking. West of the N1, Vorna Valley and Halfway House are older sectional-title stock with narrow internal roads and no lift, so a half-ton bakkie often lands closer to the door than a truck would. We size the vehicle to the building, not just the load.
Where we collect from in Midrand
- Mall of Africa at Waterfall City
- Boulders Shopping Centre in Halfway House
- Carlswald Shopping Centre and the décor strip
- Kyalami Corner and the Allandale trade parks

Bakkie hire with driver questions
Yes, Midrand is core SHIMI coverage. We collect and deliver across Halfway House, Noordwyk, Waterfall, Vorna Valley and the surrounding areas at the Gauteng rate, with same-day dispatch on most local bookings.
The building usually decides, not the load. Describe what you are moving and the address when you book, and we suggest the smallest vehicle that can actually reach the door — the access notes for Midrand are on this page.
No. A driver comes with the vehicle. You do not drive it yourself, you do not need a deposit or a licence for the vehicle class, and the driver helps load and offload your goods.
The price is calculated from the distance and the vehicle class, with loading help included, and shown to you upfront before you book. Enter your pickup and drop-off to get an exact quote in seconds.
A half-ton bakkie handles a few boxes, a single appliance or small furniture (up to about 500 kg). For a bigger load (a lounge suite or a fridge and washer together), a 1.5-ton truck is the better fit. We right-size it for you when you describe the load.
