Why Asking for Quotation is Necessary Before Hiring a Packer Mover in Amritsar?

I have recently shifted from Bilaspur, Madhya Pradesh to Amritsar, Punjab. This is the first time I have relocated to a new location with my family and household goods. So it is a good learning experience for me. I am looking forward to share my knowledge with the readers, regarding the whole process, all the hurdles involved, ways to get over those hurdles, and supervising the whole process to ensure the safety of your household items till they get delivered at your new home.
I have always heard several stories from my peers about the troubles associated with relocation of house. I have learned from their experiences and I was determined not to repeat their mistakes when I move to a new location. Hence I have researched a lot before my home shifting.

Choose a reliable packer mover service: There are several tips for choosing a reliable packer mover service for your home shifting requirement. Go through them, read online ask friends and peers about their experience with mover packer companies during their home shifting and do it in the right way.
After you sort few of the good companies, compare their quotations and services (remember a more accurate estimate is only possible once they come over to your place to see the items themselves which they have to shift).

Check through their profiles: ask for the trade license, personal voter ID’s (or id proofs), other business registrations etc just make sure that you are dealing with a legitimate company.
Making time and get involve in the process: First of all try to make some time before shifting your home; take a leave from work (for day or two). Since depending completely on the mover packer company might not turn to be a good idea. Since you can take more responsibility of your own household items more than any one else.

If you have successfully selected a good mover’s packer company your headache might be considerably less but still your supervision is required to do it the right way.

How I shifted my home from Bilaspur to Amritsar.

In my case after adhering to all the guidelines and following all the precautionary tips I have successfully shifted my home to Amritsar. My first challenge was the distance; the two cities are over 1633 Kms apart from each other. It is huge distance to be covered. My second challenge was the volume of goods that I have to shift. It is almost 2 BHK full of items including various heavy items, along with a four wheeler and a bike.

Hence first of all I made sure that the packer mover company provides all the required services, and then we made an agreement of all the terms, conditions, services and policies in written. And with the grace of god everything went according to plan.

Why Hire Movers and Packers in India for Home shifting

I am sure you know that there are many benefits of hiring movers and packers in India for home shifting, car transfer or storage and warehousing services in India. They bring lots of advantage to the table because it’s their day to day job and they make their bread and better by helping people in shifting home. Let me tell you very categorically that if you want to get your household items transferred safely without any complications, then you ought to hire a movers and packers company and that probably is the best thing to do.

But does that mean you should hire a movers and packers for every small little shifting need like when traveling from say Bangalore to Mumbai, you want to send one briefcase using movers and packers service?

If you are among the people who want to hire movers and packers for such small little relocation needs, then you are doing it wrong. Movers and packers are not yet another courier service company, they can’t help you relocate one briefcase and even if they do, that’s not the best way to do it.

Because movers and packers in India are best suited for following services;

•    Packing and shifting of full household items e.g. bed, mattress, cupboards, television, fridge, mixer, water filter, utensils, cooler, ac etc

•    Movers can also help you with car and motor bike transfer service from one city to another city, anywhere in India.

•    Some of the movers and packers in India also offer storage facility for household goods.

As you can see, they are best suited when you have lots of materials you can’t get benefited from their expertise and resources when you want to transfer just one item. If you are in such situation, sending your goods using train can be a better option or else send it via a courier company.

Here are the benefits of hiring movers and packers in India

There are many benefits of booking movers and packers for shifting services in India, but I am listing below a few of the key benefits;

•    When you hire a movers for shifting services, be it household goods or car, you can simply relax as they will be taking care of everything.

•    Movers and packers in India have a team that can work together and take care of every aspect of home shifting such as good quality packing, waterproof wrapping, labeling the boxes, loading, transporting, unloading and re-arranging.

•    Executives of movers and packers companies understand how to pack or load your home appliances and other materials without damaging.

•    They have associates at unloading point who can help big tie in unloading

•    They have tie-ups with insurance companies and can insure your goods easily before transporting.

Over to you

If you decide to do all of the packing, loading, transporting and everything in between of your own without hiring a movers and packers company then I think you should think again. How much of the packing materials like bubble wraps do you think you would require? And how many carton boxes and of what size do you need? Not that easy.

You may decide to pack and move yourself instead of hiring a movers and packers but trust me, you may end up wasting more of your time, put in more efforts and even ending up spending more money than you could have spend on hiring a movers and packers in India for your needs.

What do you think is better doing it yourself or booking a movers and packers in India?
