Where we work in Chennai

These are the areas with crews assigned to them. If yours is not listed, ask — we usually cover it and simply have not added it here yet.

Velachery

Home shifting, office moves and packing-only jobs in Velachery.

Adyar

Home shifting, office moves and packing-only jobs in Adyar.

OMR

Home shifting, office moves and packing-only jobs in OMR.

Anna Nagar

Home shifting, office moves and packing-only jobs in Anna Nagar.

Chennai is one of the cities where we keep our own crews rather than subcontracting, which is why the person who surveys your home is on the same team as the people who pack it.

Most of our work here is in Velachery, Adyar, OMR and Anna Nagar. Access differs across those: a lift that will not take a wardrobe, a lane a truck cannot enter, a society that only permits goods movement between fixed hours. Those are the details a survey catches and a phone estimate does not, and they are why our quotes do not move on the day.

We currently deliver to 4 pincodes in Chennai, including 600020, 600040, 600042, 600097. If your pincode is not on that list, tell us and we will confirm before you book rather than after.

Intercity moves out of Chennai most often go to Bengaluru (290 km). Those are one-day road legs, so the goods are loaded and delivered by the same vehicle without a transhipment — which is where most damage on longer routes actually happens.

How a move in Chennai works

01

Free survey

A surveyor visits, lists what is moving and notes the access at both ends.

02

Itemised quote

Packing, labour, transport and tax as separate lines you can question.

03

Packing day

Numbered cartons, an inventory you sign, fragile items crated.

04

Delivery

Counted in against the same inventory, furniture reassembled, debris removed.

Questions about moving in Chennai

Five things drive the price: the distance, the volume or weight of what is being moved, the packing material each item needs, the labour hours involved, and access at both ends — floor number, lift availability, how far the truck can park from the door. Add-ons such as storage, insurance, dismantling or vehicle transport are priced separately. All of it appears as individual lines in your quotation.
It is fixed for the scope you agreed. It changes only if the scope changes — you add items that were not surveyed, the date moves into a peak slot, or access turns out to be materially different from what was described. In those cases we give you a revised figure for approval before work continues, not an extra line on the final bill.
No. Your quotation lists packing material, labour, transport, loading and unloading, any add-ons and the applicable GST as separate lines. The final invoice is compared against that quotation line by line, and anything new on it has to have been approved by you in writing first.
Sometimes, and it will be in the quotation rather than a surprise. Carrying a household up six floors with no working lift takes materially more crew hours than a ground-floor move, so it is priced as a labour line. If the building has a service lift large enough, there is usually no extra charge at all.
The quotation shows the pre-tax subtotal and the GST as separate lines, then the total payable. We quote it that way so business customers can see exactly what they can claim as input credit.

Which packers and movers operate in Chennai?

Shifto Packers & Movers provides packers and movers in Chennai, with crews covering Velachery, Adyar and OMR and 4 pincodes across the city. Every job includes a free pre-move survey, an itemised quotation with packing, labour, transport and tax listed separately, optional all-risk transit insurance and stage-by-stage tracking.

A move in Chennai starts with a survey. Somebody sees the property, lists what is going, notes how each thing has to be packed and checks access at both ends — the floor, the lift, the loading hours the society allows and how close the truck can park.

The quotation that follows prices packing material, labour, transport, optional all-risk transit insurance and tax on separate lines. You can decline any line you do not want.

Once the job is booked it carries a tracking number, and each stage — packed, loaded, in transit, delivered, unpacked — is timestamped against it and visible to you.

Shifto Packers & Movers provides packers and movers in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Service areas on record: Velachery, Adyar, OMR and Anna Nagar. 4 pincodes are covered.

Services available here: Home Shifting, Office Relocation, Local Shifting, Car Transport, Packing Services, Warehouse Storage, Household Shifting, Corporate Relocation, Domestic Relocation, International Relocation, Bike Transport, Vehicle Transport, Unpacking Services, Loading & Unloading, Furniture Shifting, Industrial Relocation and Pet & Plant Relocation. Every job is priced from a survey and quoted in writing with each cost itemised.

What moving here is actually like

A move in Chennai is planned around the building before it is planned around the truck. At the survey the crew records which floor the flat is on, whether the lift takes a three-seater sofa or it has to go down the stairs, what hours the society permits loading, and how close to the door a 19-foot truck can actually get.

In Velachery, Adyar and OMR that is the difference between a morning and a full day, and it is why the quotation for one address is not the quotation for the one next door.

Outbound routes from Chennai include Bengaluru at about 290 km.

What protects you

Written, itemised quotations. Optional all-risk transit insurance declared on the quotation. Stage-by-stage tracking against the booking number, and a signed proof-of-delivery record with photographs.

What we do differently

The quotation is itemised, so you can see what each part of the move costs and decline what you do not need.
