Hassle-Free Household Shifting Services
Moving an entire household requires precision, proper materials, and an experienced crew. Whether you are moving a 1BHK apartment down the street or a multi-story villa to another state, Homepac Express provides a complete household shifting service. We manage the entire relocation cycle—from the initial inventory survey to unloading and basic reassembly at your new address. Our approach to home relocation is grounded in accountability. We use dedicated teams rather than subcontracting the work, ensuring your belongings are handled with a consistent standard of care. With a network spanning over 250 cities across India, we take responsibility for your move from door to door.
What Our Home Relocation Service Includes
Our household shifting services are designed to be entirely comprehensive, meaning you do not need to arrange separate packing materials, labour, or transport. When you book a home relocation with us, the service includes:
- Complete Packing: Our crew arrives with corrugated boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, foam sheets, and sealing tape. Every room is packed systematically, with special attention given to fragile items like glassware, artwork, and electronics.
- Furniture Disassembly: Large items such as beds, dining tables, and wardrobes are carefully dismantled using proper tools to ensure safe transport.
- Loading and Handling: Trained loaders handle the heavy lifting, navigating stairs, narrow corridors, and elevators without damaging your goods or the property.
- GPS-Tracked Transport: Your household goods travel in enclosed, weather-proof vehicles. You receive a tracking ID to follow the progress of your shipment online.
- Unloading and Unpacking: Upon arrival, the crew unloads all items, places the boxes in their designated rooms, and unpacks the major components.
- Basic Reassembly: We reassemble the furniture dismantled at the origin, allowing you to settle into your new home on day one.
Who is this For
This service is tailored for anyone relocating their primary residence. It covers:
- Families and Individuals: Moving homes within the same city or across state borders.
- Tenants: Transitioning between rental properties at the end of a lease.
- Homeowners: Moving into a newly purchased property or shifting during major home renovations.
- Corporate Employees: Professionals relocating for a job, often requiring Corporate Relocation documentation and GST-billed invoices for employer reimbursement.
Our Stress-Free Moving Process
We run a clear, five-step process to ensure a secure and predictable move. By standardising how we operate, we eliminate the uncertainty often associated with packing and moving.
Pre-Move Survey and Itemised Quote
You share your move details via our form, call, or WhatsApp. For larger households (3BHK and above), we conduct a free pre-move survey (virtually or in-person) to assess the volume accurately. You receive a transparent, itemised quote the same day.
Scheduling and Preparation
Once approved, we lock in your move date. We also advise you on how to prepare, such as emptying refrigerators and securing personal valuables.
Packing and Loading Day
The crew arrives on time with all necessary materials. We pack room by room, label all boxes clearly, and load them securely into the transport vehicle. An inventory checklist is created and signed by both parties.
Transit and Tracking
The vehicle departs for the destination. You can track the truck's location live using your tracking ID.
Delivery, Unloading, and Reassembly
The crew unloads the boxes, places them in the correct rooms according to the labels, unpacks, and reassembles your core furniture. We cross-check the final delivery against the initial inventory checklist.
What's Included vs. Excluded
We believe in clear boundaries so you know exactly what to expect on moving day.
- All packing materials (boxes, tape, bubble wrap, foam).
- Labour for packing, loading, unloading, and unpacking.
- Standard furniture disassembly and reassembly (beds, tables).
- Transport in an enclosed moving truck.
- Floor protection during the loading/unloading phase.
- Appliance Installation: Uninstalling and reinstalling air conditioners, wall-mounted TVs, washing machines, and geysers requires specialised technicians. We offer this as a paid add-on service.
- Wall Drilling: Mounting fixtures, shelves, or frames at the new destination.
- Deep Cleaning: Post-move cleaning of the empty property.
- Moving Plants and Pets: Live plants are generally not covered by transit insurance, and pets require dedicated Pet Relocation services which are handled differently.
Home Shifting Pricing Factors
We price moves based on verifiable metrics rather than arbitrary estimates. The cost of your household shift depends on:
- Volume of Goods: The total size and weight of your inventory dictate the size of the truck needed and the amount of packing material required.
- Distance: The kilometres between the origin and destination, including toll taxes and state border fees.
- Floor Level and Access: Moving from or to higher floors without an elevator increases the manual labour required and impacts the final cost. Long carries (where the truck cannot park close to the building) also factor in.
- Packing Specifications: Highly fragile or high-value inventories that demand premium packing materials (like custom wooden crating for chandeliers or large art) will incur higher material costs.
- Seasonality: Rates may fluctuate slightly during peak moving seasons (e.g., month-ends, summer holidays).
Guaranteed Reliability
Transit Insurance Options
We offer comprehensive transit insurance. You can declare the value of your goods, and in the unlikely event of damage, you are financially protected. Transit insurance is available at a standard rate of 3% of your declared inventory value.
GST-Billed
Every move we complete is properly invoiced with our valid GSTIN, ensuring compliance and enabling you to claim expenses from your employer if applicable.
Verified Crews
We do not rely on daily-wage casual labour for packing. The crew handling your household shifting is trained, vetted, and experienced in professional relocation logistics.
How many days before the move should I book?
For local moves within the same city, booking 2 to 3 days in advance is generally sufficient. For intercity or interstate moves, we recommend booking 7 to 10 days ahead to secure your preferred date and allow time for a pre-move survey.
Do you provide packing materials for delicate items?
Yes. All packing materials are included in your quote. We use industry-standard bubble wrap, corrugated sheets, edge protectors, and foam for fragile items like crockery, glassware, and electronics.
Is unpacking included in the standard home shifting package?
Yes, basic unpacking is part of our standard service. This includes opening boxes, placing large items in their respective rooms, and removing the used packing materials from your home. Detailed arranging (like organising clothes in wardrobes or setting up kitchen cabinets) is generally left to the homeowner.
What happens if an item is damaged during transit?
If you have opted for our transit insurance, any damage covered under the policy terms will be compensated. Please Contact Us or speak to your move coordinator immediately upon delivery to initiate the exact claims process. Claims are typically processed within 15 working days.
Do I need to empty my cupboards and drawers before the crew arrives?
Yes. To ensure safe lifting and prevent damage to the furniture structure, all cupboards, wardrobes, and heavy drawers must be emptied. Our crew will pack the contents separately into reinforced moving boxes.
