How Mumbai House Shifting Works – Step by Step
Our process, refined over 15+ years, ensures peace of mind from your first call to that moment you sit in your new living room. Here's our tried-and-tested approach:
- Free consultation & site survey – Call us at +91 9540160277 or fill our quote form. Our team visits your current address (say, in Malad West, 400064) to assess inventory, fragility, and access points.
- Customized quote – Within 24 hours, you receive a detailed, GST-inclusive quote with no hidden charges. We list each room's contents and flag high-risk items.
- Booking & advance – Once you approve, a 20% advance confirms your moving date. The remaining balance is due before loading starts.
- Packing day (pre-move) – Our teams arrive with materials and pack room by room. Kitchen items, crockery, and heirlooms receive extra attention. We label every box with your name and destination room.
- Loading day – Early morning (typically 7–8 AM), our crew loads the vehicle methodically, heaviest items first. Photos are taken for your records.
- Transit & tracking – Your belongings travel in a dedicated, GPS-tracked vehicle. You can call for updates anytime—families love knowing their home is on the way.
- Unloading & placement – Upon arrival at your new address (perhaps in Chembur, 400071), we unload, place furniture where you want it, and unpack essentials. Your bed is made, kitchen utensils are organized.
- Final walkthrough & settlement – We review the inventory, take photos of placement, and ensure nothing was damaged. You sign off, and we're done.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do packers and movers charge for a 2 BHK house shift in Mumbai?
A 2 BHK local move within Mumbai ranges from ₹8,000 to ₹18,000, depending on distance, floor height, and packing complexity. If you're moving from Lower Parel to Malad, distance varies 20–30 km, affecting the final cost. At Gati, we calculate this transparently: base rate + per-km charges (₹17–₹23/km) + 18% GST. Add ₹3,500–₹5,000 for specialized packing of glassware or antiques. Insurance (3% of declared value) is optional but recommended.
How many days in advance should I book my house move in Mumbai?
We recommend booking 7–14 days before your intended move date, especially during peak season (May–July). For large villas or high-rise buildings in South Mumbai that require elevator permits, book 3 weeks ahead. You can reserve your date and truck instantly with a small confirmation deposit. For same-week moves within Mumbai suburbs (Thane, Navi Mumbai), call +91 95401 60277 — we often accommodate urgent requests based on truck availability.
Do you offer insurance — what's the coverage limit and claim timeline?
Yes. Optional insurance covers up to 100% of declared value at 3% of that value. For a ₹2 lakh household, insurance costs ₹6,000. Claims are processed within 7–10 days of filing with photographs and inventory proof. Most families add insurance for peace of mind — especially when moving antiques or electronics.
What packing materials and methods do you use for fragile items?
We use multi-layer bubble wrap, corrugated boxes, foam sheets, and wooden crates for heirloom items. Glassware and crockery are individually wrapped and packed in sturdy cartons with wooden dividers. Mirrors, paintings, and antique furniture get custom wooden frames and padding. Our packers attend monthly training for fragile handling — that's why families have moved without breakage. Each packed box is labeled with contents and fragility level.
Are GST and tolls included in the quote, or extra?
18% GST is calculated separately and added at final billing. Tolls for Mumbai→Pune expressway or similar long-distance routes are extra and billed as incurred. Your free quote will specify: base moving cost, GST component, estimated tolls, and optional insurance. We're transparent because families deserve clarity. Example: ₹12,000 move in Mumbai + ₹2,160 GST + ₹500 toll = ₹14,660 total.
Can I track my goods in transit during a Mumbai house move?
Yes. Once your move starts, you receive real-time GPS tracking via our mobile app or direct phone updates. Our driver shares live location every 5 minutes for moves beyond 15 km. For same-city moves (e.g., Bandra to Vile Parle), we call you when the truck is 5 minutes away and again upon arrival. This transparency is part of the Gati extended-family promise — you always know where your belongings are.
Do you provide storage if my new Mumbai home isn't ready on move-day?
Absolutely. We offer secure, climate-controlled storage in Mumbai (Central, South, East, West zones) at ₹1,200–₹2,500 per month depending on volume. Your items remain insured in storage. Many families use this when closing/handover delays happen. Storage duration is flexible — we've kept goods safe for 6+ months. All storage packing is double-checked for pest-proofing and humidity protection.
Which areas of Mumbai and suburbs do you cover for house moves?
We cover all of Mumbai — South (Colaba, Fort, Bandra), Central (Malad, Borivali, Andheri), East (Powai, Dombivali, Thane), and West (Vile Parle, Santacruz, Kandivali). We also move to Navi Mumbai, Thane, Kalyan, Pune, and beyond. Even remote Airoli or Khopoli is within range. Call +91 95401 60277 to confirm coverage for your specific pincode — most areas have next-day availability.
