Commercial freight and movers & packers — one Indian team, door to door.

A ballpark on the same working day, once we know the origin, the destination and roughly how much there is. A firm written quote follows the survey, which we can usually do within a day or two in the cities we cover, and immediately by video if you are in a hurry. We do not hold a price back to create pressure — you get the number and the reasoning behind it.

For a physical survey, someone who knows the household should be there, because the value of the visit is in the questions — what is going, what is staying, what is fragile, what is being sold. A video survey works well when that is easier, and for smaller moves it is often the faster option. Either way you end up with a written inventory you can check.

Air freight moves in days and sea freight in weeks, and the honest number depends on the lane. A Gulf sailing from Nhava Sheva is a short hop; North Europe, North America and Australasia are measured in weeks and often involve a transhipment call that adds time. We give you a realistic window at quotation rather than the best case, and we tell you where the risk of slippage sits.

Ocean schedules are forecasts, not timetables — vessels get rolled and services get blanked, and any mover who promises otherwise is not being straight with you. What we control is how fast you hear about it and what we do next: the next available sailing, an alternative routing, or air on the part you cannot wait for. You hear it from us, not from a tracking page.

Transit insurance is arranged as part of the move and is quoted as its own line so you can see what it costs. It is worth understanding why it matters: international carriage sits under conventions that cap the carrier’s liability at a figure tied to weight, not to what your things are actually worth. Insurance is what covers the difference, and it is priced off the inventory you sign.

Vehicles and pets both travel regularly on our corridors, and both are governed by the destination country’s own rules rather than by us. Some countries make importing a used car straightforward; others make it expensive or effectively impossible. Pets need microchipping, vaccination records and, on many routes, a titre test with a waiting period. We handle the crating and the freight to IATA standards and tell you honestly what the destination requires before you commit.

No. We are movers and packers, not an immigration adviser. What we do is build the physical move around the dates your employer or your adviser confirms, so a container does not arrive before you do or sit at the port accruing charges. Where storage bridges the gap, we arrange it.

That is common and it is priced accordingly. Pack-only, unpack-only, a single item, a few cartons, storage without a move, or customs clearance on a shipment somebody else is carrying — all of it is work we do. Tell us the part you want handled and we will quote that, rather than pushing a full-service package you do not need.
