Bakkie hire with driver in Sandton
Bakkie hire in Sandton is mostly small, urgent and awkward: a trade collection in Wynberg, a single piece from a Kramerville showroom, an office item that will not fit an executive car. The catch is the destination, since most Sandton buildings want a loading-bay slot and a booked lift. A half-ton with a driver clears both faster than a bigger vehicle would.
Sandton, from the CBD around the Gautrain station out to Bryanston, Morningside and Rivonia, is one of our highest-volume pickup and delivery areas. Apartment and estate moves, showroom furniture collections and appliance deliveries into complexes are daily work here. The driver handles access, loading and offloading, and you track the whole trip on a live link.
Need a bakkie and a driver in Sandton 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 Sandton 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 Sandton
The part most quotes ignore, and the part that decides how long the job takes.
Sandton is a booked-lift and loading-bay market. The CBD towers and most Benmore and Morningside blocks want the move slotted with the building manager, and a few restrict deliveries to weekday business hours. Give us the block's rules when you book and the driver arrives with the right paperwork instead of circling the basement.

Bakkie hire with driver questions
Yes, Sandton is core SHIMI coverage. We collect and deliver across Sandton CBD, Bryanston, Morningside, Rivonia 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 Sandton 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.
