Local and long-distance relocating costs will differ depending on the location, move size, vehicles required and if an overnight stop is required for the shifting team.

So how much does a moving company cost?

For local moves, shifting companies may charge an average of Rs.1500 per hour for three expert trained porter professionals and a truck van for a small move like a one or two bedroom flat. For larger properties, a fixed price will usually be quoted, and additional services are usually given, like late key/cancellation waivers and insurance (For Long Distance moving i.e. interstate Shifting) upgrades.

Keep in mind that the required packing materials (i.e. bubble wrap, Corrugated Sheet, Stretch wrap, Carton boxes) may not always be included in this rate.

The total cost of moving house will be determined by the following key factors:

  1. Location if it’s local or long-distance shifting
  2. Amount of furniture/boxes to move (scope of work)
  3. How many people are needed to help (moving heavy furniture will require a team of at least two)
  4. How many rooms in the property It’s difficult to estimate exactly how many hours will be required for the porter team until you get underway. For that reason, we recommend booking your mover for the day at an agreed price or budgeting for more time rather than less when sourcing a quote. Unexpected issues could easily cause hurdles in the process, and it may be the case that you need more movers to handle larger furniture. Each additional team member will cost extra, so try to consider in advance how many professionals you will need – that way, you can put together an accurate budget before hiring a team. Getting in a reputable/Branded and experienced moving company to survey your move and quote will save you the hassle of working all of this out, then, you can compare companies and quotes and choose the one that suits your needs, and can handle the job most effectively.

One of the other key factors is whether the moving company will be packing your possessions, or simply transporting them.
