How to Choose the Best Packers and Movers in Your City: An Insider's Guide
By Maa Sherawali Packers and Movers
After helping over 5,000 families and businesses relocate across India, we've learned what truly separates professional movers from the rest. Here's our no-nonsense guide to finding a relocation partner you can trust.
1. The Ground Reality Check (What Most Guides Won't Tell You)
Before looking at websites or quotes, do these three things:
- Visit their warehouse unannounced: Look for proper packing materials, hydraulic lifts, and organized storage.
- Ask for a GST invoice sample: Fake movers can't produce genuine tax documents.
- Request to meet the loading supervisor: This is the person who’ll actually handle your goods.
2. The Price Trap: How to Read Between the Lines
Last month, we helped a family who was quoted ?18,000 by another company, only to be charged ?32,000 later. Here's what to watch for:
- The Staircase Trick: Hidden charges for each floor not disclosed upfront.
- The “Just 1 Truck” Myth: Unexpectedly claiming multiple small trucks are needed.
- Night Move Surcharge: 25% extra if the move continues past 6 PM.
Our Transparent Pricing at Maa Sherawali:
- All charges explained in Hindi/English.
- Written confirmation of truck size.
- No night charges for delays caused by us.
3. Packing: Where Most Movers Cut Corners
We recently inspected a competitor’s “professional packing” and found issues like:
- Kitchen plates wrapped in used newspapers.
- Electronics without anti-static protection.
- Unprotected furniture edges.
Our Bihari-Smart Packing Approach:
- Recycled cotton cloth for fragile items.
- Neem-treated wooden crates for termite protection.
- Color-coded tags in Hindi/English.
4. The Transportation Test
Ask these crucial questions before booking:
- “Which route will you take to avoid tolls/traffic?”
- “What’s your breakdown recovery process?”
- “Can I track the truck driver directly?”
5. The Unloading Scam (And How to Avoid It)
- Extra charges for "heavy items" already included.
- Fake claims like "elevator not working."
- Teams rushing away before unpacking is complete.
Our Promise:
- Same team loads and unloads.
- Free 1-hour unpacking assistance.
- Damage report signed before leaving.
