We can help you find such movers and packers companies without any sweat and effort. It’s as easy as clicking a button to post your shifting and relocation requirements.

I this post I am going to talk about the best techniques to find and hire best Local Packers and Movers in your city, no matter where you are in India. You can apply these tips and techniques to hire Local Packers and Movers companies as well as a long distance home or a car shifting company.

  • First of all, you should start planning from the moment you are sure you have to move. Having enough time in hand can give you lots of flexibility, but when you are in urgency and if moving companies know this, they will try and dominate you and may charge you more.
  • To begin with you may like to ask your friends, office colleagues, or a family members and seek their recommendations. Usually referral contacts work better but you have to be smart when dealing with them, else it may be costlier. Hope you know what I mean.
  • Second option is to make some search on the Internet and find a few of the best packers and movers companies. If you are looking to hire them for local shifting search for local packers and movers in your city, if its for long distance, search accordingly.
  • Make a list of three to four shifting companies and start calling them one by them. Give them a tentative budget too after hearing from them and wait for their call back. Usually there is room for negotiation so if there is one, they will get back to you again, but never compromise on quality of packing materials etc
  • Shortlist two or three out of those Home Shifting Companies, and ask them to come to survey your goods. This will give you another opportunity to meet them face-to-face and negotiate further.
  • While negotiating with the shifting and relocation companies, give them some flexibility like you are okay to move during the week, they have enough time to do the packing as per their convenience etc. usually shifting during weekend is costlier than during the week. So consider all these points.
  • Negotiation is the key and when you have two or three options in your hand, you may even like them to show the quotations from other shifting companies and negotiate well.
  • Once the negotiation is offer, you may ask for add-on services like up to a week of storage if needed, update of status every alternate day etc.

As I said earlier, when you talk to a few of the best packers and movers companies, you will have better understanding of the entire process and also you can negotiate well. But remember to not compromise on quality of packing materials and Insurance.
