What is a 10ft Lorry? Understanding Specifications

A 10ft lorry is a Light Goods Vehicle (LGV) with a cargo deck length of approximately 10 feet or 3 meters. These vehicles transport goods with a capacity of 1-2 tons, making them ideal for delivery services, house moving, and daily logistics operations.

Standard 10ft Lorry Specifications

Vehicle Classification Under LTA Singapore

Based on Land Transport Authority (LTA) regulations, commercial vehicles are categorized as follows:

• Light Goods Vehicles (LGVs): Maximum Laden Weight (MLW) up to 3,500 kg

• Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs): MLW from 3,501 kg to 16,000 kg

• Very Heavy Goods Vehicles (VHGVs): MLW exceeding 16,000 kg

• Goods-cum-Passenger Vehicles (GPVs): MLW up to 5,000 kg for cargo and passengers

The 10ft lorry such as the Toyota Dyna with MLW of 3,700 kg falls into the entry-level HGV category. However, with an unladen weight of 1,780 kg, this vehicle can be driven with a Class 3 driving license according to Singapore Police Force (SPF) regulations.

Tips for Choosing the Right 10ft Lorry

Step 1: Evaluate Your Payload Requirements

Consider the average weight of cargo transported regularly. The Toyota Dyna offers payload capacity up to 1,920 kg, sufficient for most commercial applications.

Assessment Questions:

• What is the typical weight per delivery?

• How many deliveries per day?

Step 2: Select Appropriate Transmission

Manual Transmission:

• Better fuel economy (10.2 km/L vs 9.9 km/L)

• Lower purchase cost

• More control in challenging conditions

• Better suited for experienced drivers

Automatic Transmission:

• Easier driving in stop-and-go traffic

• Reduced driver fatigue on long routes

• Shorter learning curve for new drivers

• More comfortable in urban Singapore conditions

Step 3: Choose the Right Body Type

Match body type with your most frequent cargo requirements:

Step 4: Inspect Vehicle Condition (for Used Lorry)

When purchasing a used lorry, conduct thorough inspection:

Essential Checks:

• Service history and maintenance records

• Certificate of Entitlement (COE) validity remaining

• Engine compression and performance test

• Brake and suspension condition

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a special license to drive a 10ft lorry in Singapore?

For a 10ft lorry with unladen weight below 3,000 kg like the Toyota Dyna (1,780 kg), a Class 3 or Class 3A driving license is sufficient. Always verify the specific vehicle specifications before driving.
