Nepal

Various types of trucks (4 MT to 33 MT capacity) are used in Nepal as the means to transport cargo. Most of the goods/freight vehicles in Nepal are up to 11 MT two-axle rigid chassis and constitute majority of the total fleet of freight vehicles.

In the mountainous areas, 4-wheel drive 4 MT trucks and tractor-trailer combinations are common for transport. The Government of Nepal sets standard transport rates especially for truck routes across the country. The Federation of Truck Transport Entrepreneurs, Nepal (FTTEN) plays an active role in setting transport rates, especially for the routes in remote areas with mainly unpaved roads, in coordination with the District Administration Office and District Technical Office. The Federation of Truck Transport Entrepreneurs, Nepal (FTTEN) is registered as a national NGO to safeguard the rights of truck transporters across the country and can also be contacted for information on transport service capacity.

Overloading trucks is a common practice and utilising high tyre pressure to carry as much as 18 to 20 tonnes, exceeding the legal Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of 16.2 tonnes, thus causing additional wear and tear on the roads. In areas not accessible by trucks e.g. rural unpaved roads, tractors and mini 4MT trucks are the main transport means for goods. In the high mountainous regions, with an absence of roads, pack animals (mules) and porters are mainly used.
