Don't use this company. We are still waiting two weeks later for the $300 bond to be returned. We contacted the bank, they stated the payment is not even in the system. Sick of phoning this company and them giving us the same excuse that it's the banks fault. I'm going to Fair Trade.
Cannot fault this company. Right from the start of the hire to the end they were very professional at every step. They explained all the workings of the truck, the t&c’s, including the bond. This bond is held on your credit card and will not be… Read more
taken by the company unless there is an issue. They have no control over the time it takes for the bank to release the hold. I will definitely be recommending to family and friends and would not hesitate to use again. Thank you mobile truck rental for a great experience.
Follow-up · I had no problem with the deposit that was held by my credit card company. It was released after a few days when everything was in order.
We used Mobile Truck Rental 5 times and we give them a 5 Star PLUS rating. Don't believe the winchers that have wrote opposite reviews. This is a team of helpful professionals that strive for customer satisfaction. Simon from the Zilmere office went out of his way to help. This is the best truck rental we have used. Every employee was polite, curteous and customer focused.
Avoid these [Content Removed] ☠️ despite the convenience of drop off and collection@ your door, it's just not worth it, trust me... i had to dispute a hefty charge through my bank (which took months) because these mongrels are super [Content Removed] operators...once they've got your money and cc details - they'll endeavour to [Content Removed]… Read more
U... Just do yourself a favour and go to Hertz/ thrifty, (like I did after dealing with these [Content Removed]) Hertz/ Thrifty are a long standing, established and PROFESSIONAL company with a good track record. Whereas these [Content Removed] Truck people delivered a vehicle with some existing damage to a certain part, that part proceeded to fail (under normal driving conditions) and boom- they'll slap U with 'liability'... BEWARE ☠️ Some industry insiders have divulged what these racketeers get upto, suggesting they swap in damaged goods, have those things fail whilst hired out, and then cash in on replacing old for new parts at YOUR EXPENSE...Avoid this company ☠️ - star rating in the minus...

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. You will think they are priced well- until they sting you at tjd end, you will be far better off with any other company. Don’t say we didn’t warn you! I Had a very bad experience with this company. There was a small scratch on the truck that was my responsibility, the company charged me $1000, which was absolutely… Read more
excessive. Still, I was prepared to pay, I gave them $600 on the spot, but I asked them to do a payment plan for the rest and told them I didn’t have the money at that time- I’d just moved house, and I was living off savings and the truck had already cost me over $3000. To my face on the phone they say “yep no worries” then they went behind my back and kept charging my card until they had taken an additional $750. My account was then over $600 in overdraft and I had no money to buy food for my kids. I found out because at the shops I had no money at all to pay for food or petrol. This is an absolutely disgusting way to treat customers. I repeat: chose any other trust company or you will regret it.

Convenient truck rentals – These guys are highly professional and the truck was great. Moved my house in a day and the team was helpful. Will be hiring another truck in the future from these guys. Super convenient and they come to you.
Hire truck.... perfect! – was very impressed with the service and staff. SO friendly and helpful, great value for money, easy to do business with and a quality offering. Truck was clean, tailgate worked well, plenty of included km's and on time delivery. Will certainly make use of their services again when required. Awesome !
Good Truck Rental Mob – They're staff was very nice to get the right deal I needed to move my belongings to Melbourne, as also the Melbourne staff were just as nice. The truck was very modern and drove just like a car. The fuel consumption was surprisingly good considering the size of the truck. Overall, very satisfied with the job done by mobile truck rental.
Mobile Truck Rental Review 5 Stars! – Fabulous service by the Mobile Truck Rental team! Prompt delivery of the truck, the staff member was customer focused & professional! Will be booking again! Highly recommend! Thanks for an amazing service!
Use anyone else – Use anyone else. it’s convenient, but after how they just take money from your account without warning. I’m not using them ever again. And I have 5 times. Don’t come at me with Rules & regulations. Common courtesy & a little patience doesn’t exist. I miss a call 2 mins later 1,500 taken out of my account. Bye.
Hello Angela, $1500 sounds like an excess… Read more
Worst Company I dealt with..Not Recommended – I broke my toe on the back hoist of their truck. Because I was in hospital having an operation they left the truck here for a extra 3 days. They failed to tell they would charge me. My $300 bond turned into a $450 debt. Never go back again
Hi Andrew, Your bad review is not fair, your… Read more
Great service – Delivered the truck to our house, explained in detail important aspects of using the vehicle. Picked up the truck from our new home. Great service. Would definitely use them again.
Absolutely Amazing And Professional! – Highly Recommend these guys. The transition from start to finish was smooth and without issues. Friendly Staff that are approachable and accommodating. Took the stress out of our move. Will Definitely deal with again ! Thanks Guys. Show reply
Beware the $450 charge for a scratch to a sticker – We ordered a truck for the day only. The Truck delivered on time, however they advised that they weren't picking it up until tomorrow as they had their Christmas Party that night and changed our contract until the next day. The truck was vandalised overnight. They drove the truck away and then came back to advise us of the damage. Graffitti and a… Read more
couple of small scratches to a sticker. They cleaned the graffitti, however they charged us $450 for the scratches to the sticker. Right at Christmas time. Even when we pointed out that we didn't cause the damage and it wouldn't cost that much to replace a sticker, they didn't care, nor did they care about the impact to our Christmas. I had no control over the payment, they took it without even consulting us. The $300 bond also took over a week to be returned.
Hi Trish, The truck was booked in from 9am… Read more
Beware of the $300 bond – The hire costs are reasonable and the drop-off and pick-up prompt and convenient, but the $300 bond that is sprung on you at the last minute is ridiculous (and seemingly unnecessary if they are already charging an excess for vehicle damage - what is the bond for?). What is worse is the lazy administration in returning the bond. Rather than… Read more
reverse the pre-authorisation hold, they allow the bank to time-out the hold of the funds. For my bank it is 7 days. Other services that take a pre-authorisation (hotels for example) simply reverse the transaction once you have checked out and the room is in order, usually the funds returned within 48 hrs. The failure to actively return the bond is terrible customer service.
Hi Bridie, We are clear about the bond before… Read more
Convenient but poor customer service – Truck turned up within time frame and picked up within time frame. Great concept and pricing reasonable. The company needs experienced customer service operators not blokes who struggle to hold a conversation when answering reasonable questions. The 5 - 10 business day refund of bond is quite poor with up to 2 weeks to process a refund not… Read more
aligning to what is acceptable for a daily hire. Dean at Zillmere struggled to explain policy, maybe Dean shouldn't answer the phone.

Took 2 quote requests to get am amswer – Requested a quote....ignored. Requested another quote, now booked out for the days I need it. Perhaps if they responded to my first request I would have rented from them. I will rent somewhere else.
Woop woop service! – Required self drive truck to move 2 bed home interstate NSW to QLD . Fantastic timely delivery, handover by Corey excellent…truck fantastic……pick up. By Rob also spot on! The driver did well too!
Exceptional service!!! – I hired the truck two days ago after my truck decided to break down during a busy week, I called up and said I would have a truck to me in two hours, A gentleman from Sydney called me 10 minutes after and said he could get it to me within the hour, not only do they deliver straight to you, it was stress-free, price was great too and saved my busy… Read more
day with zero hassles especially during heavy rain. Highly recommend Mobile truck rental for any needs.
Highly Recommend! – I only have good things to say. I needed to move house, so it was great that I could rent a truck on a car license. The truck was delivered on time and was very clean and new looking. Great customer service, the guy who dropped the truck off walked me through everything I needed to know and patiently answered all my questions. Next time I move house I know who to call!
Great idea they bring the truck to you Brilliant! – Highly recommend this company. It is a great service. They drop the truck off, they even called with an ETA before arriving. Contract's easy to do and Eco friendly as it is done on an ipad. They explain everything including how to adjust the steering wheel. Best customer service I have ever had.
Don't bother with these guys – Scammers.l Forgot to put the trolley back in the Truck, and said I would drop it off straight away. They were not interested and just wanted to charge me $120. Also l wanted another day hire which they said would be $299 then changed to $199 when we said we didn't want it.
The best truck hire I've used – These guys are the best truck hire, they delivered the truck to me (only had 20000kms on it too) I had to move one way to Sydney as my movers I planed bailed on me, these guys had a truck to me within 2 hours. At the time my stress levels were thru the roof... When the truck showed up... big relief... The price was pretty good too... 5 Stars...
Amazing Service from Mobile Truck Rental – I rented a truck for 2 days. The truck was clean & tidy. The truck was dropped off on time, the customer service was exceptional, friendly fella who explained the contract throughly. Would highly recommend to anyone needing to hire a truck.
Great service – Used this company to move our daughter and glad we did . They were very professional dropped the truck off on time and explained everything . Thanks would defiantly use your company again .
Horrid! – Came an hour late for drop off. Came an hour late for pick up. Was told truck came with blankets, it doesn’t. Guy gave a wad of unacceptable excuses. Not at all happy!
I would not recommend this service – I would not recommend this service. I was charged a full 24hr fee for half a day extension and over $100 for fuel when I had fuelled up an hour prior. The whole thing cost $600. Total rip off and poor customer service. No receipt provided and no proof of deposit refunded.
Great efficient friendly Service – The truck was good very clean and .easy to drive They have the Best prices around and I did shop around. Great service from Jacob..friendly and helpful . I would definately recommend this company.
Horrible company scams – Charges you a lots of things that they will not tell you on the day of picking up the truck and when you are escalating it up they are nonnegotiable
The service and product is a six star rating – I had to move interstate, this company delivered when they said and I got a brand new truck, they explain everything little detail to you. Every little bit of stress I had when it came to moving was gone. This is the company you use for all your moving needs
So Easy! – I have arranged rental trucks a number of times over the years and Mobile Truck Rental has been the best. Best in Price, Best in Customer Service and Best in Delivery. Was so easy as they brought the truck to us and drive collects from designated pick up area. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Easy as! – What a great way to arrange truck Rental - great phone booking or online process. Best of all, a driver delivers the vehicle to you and collects when you’re done. Makes it super convenient!
