Cheap Pickup Truck Hire in Cape Town
Top Tips for Hiring a Pickup Truck in Cape Town
- When you get a Cape Town pick-up truck hire, there is more flexibility with your journey to the city and further afield. It’s more convenient to get a pick-up truck than other modes of transport, such as buses or trains, so you aren't reliant on public transport schedules to get to your destination. For instance, if you got a pick-up truck from Cape Town International Airport (CPT), you are able to get to popular areas of the city like Constantia in about 25min. There are no public transport options for this route so you’d have to get a taxi instead.
- Caoe Town Airport has lots of car hire companies to pick from, including SIXT and Avis, so it won’t be long before you’ve got your ideal pick-up truck. For example, if you are hiring with SIXT, you can locate them by heading to the First Car Rental branch. To get to the office, you need to exit the Arrival Hall and follow the ‘Car Rental’ signs. Once you’ve arrived and filled in your documentation, you’ll then be taken to your vehicle.
- When you get a Cape Town pick-up truck hire you’ll see that the city centre is very busy with locals and tourists. Even though jaywalking is forbidden you will still find lots of people crossing roads in areas that aren’t officially for pedestrians. You therefore need to drive with caution throughout the city. Lots of mopeds are also driven in the city, which can make driving a larger vehicle like a pick-up truck more difficult. You should continuously check your mirrors, especially when you need to make a turn.
- When you opt for a pick-up truck hire in Cape Town, the roads are very busy throughout the year. This can make driving a large truck harder, especially during rush hour which is from 06.00 to 08.30 and 15.30 to 17.30. If you want to avoid driving on roads when there are lots of vehicles around, you should stay off the streets during these times. One road which can get very busy is Voortrekker Road, which runs through the city centre. Try to avoid this road by taking an alternative route.
- Book your pickup truck hire in Cape Town at least 3 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- January is typically the cheapest month to hire a pickup truck in Cape Town, with prices around RM 38 per day. The most expensive month is October, with average prices of RM 71 per day.
FAQs About Hiring a Pickup Truck in Cape Town
Where are the best places to park pick-up trucks in Cape Town?
When you get your pick-up truck hire in Cape Town, you might find it’s harder to park a large vehicle. However, a good place to park is CTICC P3 Parking, on F W de Klerk Boulevard. This is free for the first 30min, with it being about 20R (A$1.72) for the next hour. It also offers a secure place for you to park with personal parking bays, so you’ll have space to get and out of your vehicle. In addition it’s only about a 15min walk to the centre from here.
What are the benefits of a pick-up truck over other car hires in Cape Town?
Cape Town is a city that is surrounded by slopes and mountain peaks, so a pick-up truck will give you the edge when driving throughout the city. If you want to take to the countryside then your choice of vehicle will really come into its own. For instance, a Toyota Hilux will give you better handling on roads and it’s also suitable for a range of terrains and gradients.
Why are pick-up trucks a good idea for large families?
If you’re holidaying with your family a Cape Town, pick-up truck hire is a better choice compared to if you opt for a smaller vehicle. Pick-up trucks tend to be more spacious than standard cars, which means you can fit your the family in comfortably. In addition, there is normally lots of room for luggage. This means that all your suitcases and bags can fit into your pick-up truck so you can transport everything in the same vehicle.

Pros:
The staff had to make efforts to explain the extra money they charge...and its very uncofortable to accept the explanation, and unacceptable, once I'd payed for the rental and insurance previously! It was a bad holiday begining... After this experience, I'm checking my VISA account all the time, to verify the expected refund. The drop off was ok.Cons:
You must change the way of doing business. More clear, transparent and balanced value for money. Ca'nt recomend Hertz! Hope Kayak as some usefull feedback to our total insatisfaction!6.0 Okay
Erin, Jan 2020
Cons:
We waited for an hour and 45 minutes for our car. This has been our experience the last few times we’ve used Hertz. No apologies or discounts.7 locations in Cape Town
