However, before hiring professional packers and movers, you should understand their budgeting process. Most people today are unaware of this and are vulnerable to fraud. They can easily be misled and tricked into paying more. Wherever you are moving, be within the city or across the country, the rates may vary according to your locality and city. Metropolitan cities like Mumbai or Bangalore have higher than standard rates. Smaller cities may charge less than standard. 

Estimating Relocation Cost 

The relocation budget can vary from company to company and place to place. But there are certain fixed factors that impact the cost. After evaluation of several best packers and movers in India, we have come up with these data that will help you manage your budget before your next relocation! 

The base cost of your relocation will be determined by your current and end location. The relocation cost varies with intracity or domestic relocation. Packers and movers companies have different rates for both the relocation procedures. 

Within the city 

If you are relocating your house or office within the city, the transportation becomes easier. The packers and movers will have to spend less time in the relocation process. This costs significantly less than other domestic relocations. 

Goods

 When it comes to relocation, the items that you wish to move with you, play a vital role. The number and size of goods will determine the size of transportation required. Bigger or larger number of items will require a bigger truck and vice-versa. In calculating your relocation cost, the size of the truck accounts for its booking price. It also determines how much packaging material will be required and the manpower for packaging. All these factors hold a major share in your estimate. 

Packaging 

Packaging is an essential in relocation. Ace RelocationsTM  assigns trained professionals to ensure optimum and efficient packaging for your goods to prevent any damages. However, bulkier items like refrigerator, wardrobes, beds, etc are generally not packaged for relocation. They are dismantled if need be. The smaller and more sensitive items are packaged carefully. TV, glass racks, geyser, etc are more vulnerable to damage and are packaged very carefully with extra protection. Conclusively, every item is packaged differently according to the requirement. Packaging materials 

are arranged accordingly and have specified rates. These material costs add up into your relocation budget. 

Manpower 

Packers and movers company provides you with people to pack all your belongings, load them on the vehicle, unload at the destination and help you unpack if you choose. This manpower accounts for its labour charges. These charges depend on the size of your house and required manpower. According to the base standards, a 1BHK house requires about 2-3 people for the process that takes around 3 hours. Subsequent increase in the number of rooms, in turn, adds up to two people for each room. The charge for each person is about Rs. 400-500. 

Distance 

In local shifting, distance fee is generally not applicable. Since a 10-15km distance won’t wind up costing the company extra, it is not added to the budget. However, in bigger cities where the destination is above 20kms, distance fee may be included as well.
