Okay, so you
are moving into one of those ritzy ongoing
residential projects in Pune. There is a (literally) a truck load of
items which need to be moved. Oh gosh! Suddenly, you remember – Movers and
Packers! You have to book one. Realization dawns upon you that you have never
booked one. Well, let us, at Phadnis Group help you with a few things to
consider while doing that and make the whole process smooth.
Vox
Populi
Talk to your
friends and acquaintances who have been there, done that. They would certainly
have some recommendations for you. Researching on the internet in tandem will
be helpful. That done, shortlist a few names and ask for an estimate.
Shoot Them
No no! We of
course don’t mean by a firearm! By shoot we mean questions to be asked to the
packer and mover. While moving to one of those residential projects in Pune consider asking following questions
either in person or on the phone –
- Are the employees bonded, licensed and insured
- What is covered in the insurance if you pack yourself?
- Are the movers who will do the job employees, or contractors or day labourers?
- How experienced is the company?
Packing
the Parcel
Identifying
the items which need to be moved beforehand, while moving to any of the Pune real estate properties or
otherwise avoids 11th hour hassle. When the representatives of the movers and
packers come down, state clearly what would be handled by them and communicate
the exact address of the new home and give them an idea of any obstacles such
as stairs or narrow hallways, etc. This is especially in connection with
moving to ongoing residential projects
in Pune.
Moving
Insurance
In case you
have any valuable items or fragile items, take a shot at asking the mover and
packer if they offer optional insurance and if it is at a reasonable cost. Some
companies may limit their liability if you do the packing.
Ultimately,
on the d-day, preferably supervise the packing and moving, sans freaking the
movers out! After it is all over, a good idea would be to scan through your
possessions and check for any damaged or missing items. If there is a minor
damage, the company should ideally reimburse you.
Hopefully
these tips will give your moving saga a happy ending, be it moving to one of
the new flat in Pune or a resale apartment!
