Why a Lake Town Base Helps Your Move
Lake Town sits between VIP Road, Jessore Road and the Dum Dum–Salt Lake belt. From here our team reaches Bangur Avenue, Dum Dum, Baguiati, Kestopur and Salt Lake in a few minutes, and the northern suburbs through our Sodepur branch. A nearby team means a quicker survey, less waiting on the moving day and lower travel cost built into your quote.
Moves in this part of the city have their own problems, and we plan for them at the survey:
- Narrow lanes: many lanes in Lake Town, Bangur Avenue, Dum Dum and Shyambazar cannot take a large truck. A small pickup shuttles goods to the main road.
- Walk-up buildings: older three- and four-storey houses have no lift and tight staircases. Heavy items are carried by hand with extra helpers.
- Society rules: housing complexes in Salt Lake, New Town and along VIP Road often allow loading only in fixed hours and need a gate pass. We book the slot with you.
- Traffic and timing: VIP Road, Jessore Road, BT Road and the bridges get heavy at office hours, so we often load early in the morning or at night.
- Rain: from June to September we seal cartons and cover furniture against sudden rain and waterlogged lanes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the Jai Hind Indian Packers and Movers office in Kolkata?
Our head office is at Rm No. 4, 50 Sarat Chatterjee Road, Borat Colony, Block A, Lake Town, Kolkata 700089. We also run a branch in Sodepur at Club Road, near Nabajagaran Club, Sukchar, for customers in Sodepur, Khardah, Panihati and nearby areas.
How much does a 1 BHK house shifting cost in Kolkata?
A 1 BHK move within the same area usually costs Rs 3,300 to Rs 6,300, and Rs 5,300 to Rs 8,800 across Kolkata. The final price depends on the number of items, the floor, whether there is a lift, how close the vehicle can stand and the packing you choose. We confirm it in writing after a free survey.
How much does a 2 BHK or 3 BHK shifting cost in Kolkata?
A 2 BHK move within the same area usually costs Rs 6,300 to Rs 10,800 and a 3 BHK Rs 10,800 to Rs 17,800. Across Kolkata the ranges are Rs 8,800 to Rs 14,800 and Rs 14,800 to Rs 23,800. Big wardrobes, a double-door fridge, many cartons or a walk-up building push the price towards the higher end.
Do you shift a single room, PG or bachelor flat?
Yes. Small moves are a regular part of our work. For a single room or PG we send a small pickup and two or three helpers, so you do not pay for a big truck you do not need.
Can you shift only one item, like a fridge, almirah or bed?
Yes. Tell us the item, both addresses and the floors. We send the right vehicle and enough hands to carry it safely on the stairs.
Is same-day shifting possible in Kolkata?
Often yes, when a vehicle and team are free. Call us early in the morning on 7980325872. Areas near our Lake Town office and Sodepur branch are the quickest for us to reach.
Which areas of Kolkata do you cover?
All of Kolkata and its suburbs: Lake Town, Bangur Avenue, Dum Dum, Baguiati, Kestopur, Salt Lake, New Town, Rajarhat, Shyambazar, Belgachia, Sodepur, Khardah, Panihati, Belgharia, Barrackpore, Barasat, Madhyamgram, south Kolkata, Howrah and Hooghly. Intercity moves start from any of these areas.
Do you have a branch in Sodepur?
Yes. Our Sodepur branch is at Club Road, near Nabajagaran Club, Sukchar, Sodepur 700115, phone +91 93303 80765. It serves Sodepur, Khardah, Panihati, Agarpara, Titagarh and nearby areas.
Do you move goods from Kolkata to other cities?
Yes. We move households from Kolkata to Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Chennai, Pune, Bhubaneswar, Cuttack and other cities, with long-distance packing and a written transit time.
How long does shifting from Kolkata to Bangalore or Hyderabad take?
By a dedicated vehicle, Kolkata to Hyderabad usually takes about 4 to 5 days and Kolkata to Bangalore about 5 to 7 days. A shared part-load takes longer because the truck waits to fill. The expected days are written on your quote.
Do you transport cars and bikes?
Yes. Cars travel on car carriers and bikes are wrapped and fixed in the vehicle. We note the condition of the vehicle before loading so you can check it at delivery.
Do I need to pay an advance for a local move?
For a normal local move inside Kolkata no large advance is asked. You pay as written on the quote. For long-distance moves a booking amount may apply, and it is written on the quote.
What packing material do you use?
Corrugated cartons, bubble wrap, foam sheets, stretch film, paper for crockery and blankets or covers for furniture. Fragile items like glass tops and TVs get extra layers.
Do you dismantle and refit furniture?
Yes. Beds, wardrobes and tables are opened, packed and fitted again at the new home. Tell us at the survey if you have a modular kitchen or a large wall unit.
How do you handle narrow lanes and buildings without a lift?
Many lanes around Lake Town, Bangur Avenue, Shyambazar and the northern suburbs are too narrow for a large truck. We use a small pickup to shuttle goods to the main road and carry items by the stairs. This is planned at the survey, not added on the day.
Can you shift at night or on Sundays?
Yes. We work 24 hours, all 7 days. Early-morning and night loading helps avoid traffic on VIP Road, BT Road and the bridges.
Is moving during the monsoon or Durga Puja a problem?
It can be done with planning. In the monsoon we seal cartons and cover furniture with plastic and tarpaulin. During Durga Puja many roads near pandals are closed in the evening, so book about two weeks early and we will plan the route.
Do you provide storage if my new house is not ready?
Yes. Goods are packed, listed item by item and kept in storage until you need them. The storage charge is agreed in writing before the move.
How do I get a quote?
Call or WhatsApp 7980325872 with both addresses, the home size and the date, or send a short video of your rooms. For a fixed price we do a free survey at your home.
How can I check that a mover is genuine before booking?
Visit or video-call the office, read recent Google reviews, ask for a written quote that lists packing, labour and vehicle charges, and avoid paying a big advance before the survey. You can do all of this with us at our Lake Town office.
