We deliver fit-for-purpose mobile workspaces on time, with certainty.
We typically only need your truck for 3 weeks,
not 3 months.
Have your service body built, before we receive your truck.
Look the best. Be the best.
Customers and staff will see you’ve got the best money can buy. It shows. Since 1995, hundreds of repeat customers have said their Hidrive fleet is a key part of their success. That’s not least due to the durability of a Hidrive and how we apply our experience to your fit-out.

Tailored modular internal shelving system to make your work life easier.
We build it different.
The Hidrive rigid floor with flexible chassis mount allows the chassis to move without transferring excessive vibration or torsional stress to the service body. That’s why we’ve never had a single customer crack a weld on a Hidrive truck service body.
We make it faster.
Exacting CAD designs allow us to commence work before your truck arrives, saving weeks or months in the cycle to get your assets on the road, faster.
Less Headaches for Fleet Managers.
Who’s got time for whingers or a non-compliant fleet that nobody is happy with? Invest in a service body that works and is built to last.

Tailored DESIGN Avoid years of headaches and inefficient mobile operations by choosing Hidrive. We’ll listen, we’ll build what you need from millions of service body combinations. Avoid complaints by learning from our experience with over 20,000 different service bodies since the 1990’s.
-
MODULAR SYSTEm Make certain everything is going to fit. Make certain your national fleet is consistent and safety compliant. Make certain your team can jump into any fleet vehicle, instantly find everything and operate in a compliant manner.
-
Undertray rope rails Don’t assume all service bodies in the market have proper or practical load restraints. It’s one of our biggest priorities. Operate safely, avoid complaints and headaches in the field by choosing Hidrive.
-
GVM complianT Ensure your fleet has the flexibility to legally carry the maximum payload from day one. Nobody ever regrets getting a GVM upgrade - as over the life of the vehicle, there will be times you’ll need the extra payload. It also helps you maintain optimal traction of the front wheels, a legal roadworthiness safety compliance checkpoint. Hidrive bodies are light, which also increases available payload. Boosts resale values as it maximises the number of buyers that will consider your vehicle.
-
FLUSH FLOOR SYSTEM Is safety your #1? With no floor lip, you avoid breaking/pinching fingers when pulling items out. Also enables slide-out drawers and benches to be at floor level for optimum working height and zero wasted space.
-
WEATHERTIGHT With the seals on the doors (as opposed to the entrance), there’s zero risk of cutting/scratching the rubber seals when loading/unloading. Damaged seals let water and dust in. Avoid years of re-ordering replacement seals.
-
120+ ACCESSORIES Hidrive are Australia’s most comprehensive one-stop service body shop. We’ll fit bull-bars, towbars and 118 other types of accessories in-between. We even do sign-writing! Avoid the headaches and delays of sending your vehicle to multiple suppliers. In the years to come, have one contact point for all your warranty, parts and service needs. Avoid confusion over who did what with your fleet.
-
SANDBLASTED & POWDERCOATED CHASSIS You get what you pay for with Hidrive. Maximum durability. Protect your resale value, minimise the chance of rust and save yourself headaches down the road.
-
Robust cross bracing Don’t risk your image, safety, resale value or the hassles of cracking and leaks caused by torsional stresses imposed into the service body structure. We’ve earned a reputation since the 1990’s of having the stiffest sub-frame chassis structure at the lowest possible weight. This means that many Hidrives are still structurally looking like new after 15+ years and 1000’s of kilometers.
-
CENTRAL LOCKING Want to waste time walking around a vehicle manually un/locking doors? Lock your vehicle and all service body doors with one button! Super handy when your hands are full! Avoid the temptation to leave tools or stock unprotected. What’s saving 1 minute per job worth to you? The best job-satisfaction investment - ever.
-
Crane integration Ensure your warranty and service body durability are protected. Avoid the headaches of asking a third party to guess and experiment with your vehicle, your compliance and safety. Trust the experts.
-
2K COLOUR MATCHED Our in-house paint facility and vehicle manufacturer-grade paint ensures your fleet looks world-class and maximises re-sale value.
Our Process.
We willl listen to understand your operational needs. We’ll recommend what you need to succeed. We’ve tailored our modular system to create over 20,000 unique builds since the 1990’s. You’ll benefit from lessons learned from similar organisations nationally.
If we do not have your truck chassis as part of our extensive library of CAD files, we will get the CAD for your truck. This means we make your service body and its chassis before the truck arrives. That is why we offer months quicker turnaround.
- Email or chat with a Mobile Workspace Expert.
- Depending on your needs, we will email reference information, perhaps including photos or videos of past builds to help to illustrate your options.
- We willl arrange an on-site demo and/or call with your key stakeholders, including end-users.
Depending on the complexity of your job, we may supply CAD drawings with your quote.
On the day your order is confirmed, we give you a delivery date based on vehicle availability.
We have a dedicated customer care team that liaises with you, your dealer and Fleet Management Organisation. We find that this can dramatically improve delivery times, reduce administration and hassles with your fleet roll-out. Find out more
Contrary to the industry norm, we start the build process well before your truck arrives, allowing us to complete your job in a matter of weeks, not months, getting you on the road sooner.
We only require your truck for 2-3 weeks. This means you get the fastest tailored solution in the market.
We are the only service body manufacturer in Australia with a company-owned national installation network, ensuring consistency and ISO9001 quality compliance.
One of the reasons why mechanics join and stay at EMS is the gear we get to use, especially the vehicles. We couldn’t be any happier with the Hidrive service bodies on the trucks and utes, they’re so much easier and safer to work with.
We saved an equitable $3.85m in time savings annually by installing Hidrive service bodies across our national brand with 350+ field staff accessing the rear of vehicles 4-8 times per day . Hidrive service bodies are safe, cost effective, of great quality and the only option I have used for over a decade in my managerial capacity since coming across this brand.
As a professional who relies on my vehicle to get the job done, having everything I need at my fingertips is crucial. Thanks to Hidrive’s attention to detail and expertise in customisation, my service body is not only durable and reliable, but it’s also designed to meet my unique needs. Great quality, great product & great service!
As a field mechanic for John Deere, having a reliable and fully customised service body for my Ford Ranger is essential to getting the job done efficiently. That’s why I turned to Hidrive, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. It’s simply fantastic!
Canberra Pest Control has had Hidrive Service Bodies, build all our new vehicle bodies for the last 3 years. I find the quality of the product second to none and the after sales service continues well after the vehicles are finished. I highly recommend HiDrive Service Bodies and will continue to use their products & services for many years to come.
