Packers and movers in Hebbal get asked for the two address move more often than almost anywhere else on this side of the city. Somebody is moving in with somebody else. Two one bedroom flats, two sets of everything, one lease being signed and two being given up, and the whole thing usually happening on a single Saturday because that is the only day both people have free.
The practical question is whether it runs as one vehicle making two stops or as two vehicles arriving at the same door. One vehicle is cheaper and it is the right answer when both flats are close by and neither load is large. It also means the second pickup waits while the first is loaded, so the day runs long, and whoever lives at the second address is sitting around until early afternoon. Two vehicles cost more and finish together. We will tell you which one your job actually needs rather than quietly booking the larger option.
Then the part nobody plans for, which is the duplicates. Two fridges, two washing machines, two beds, two microwaves, and a flat that has room for one of each. The time to decide what happens to the spare is before moving day, not while it is standing in the new hall at four in the afternoon. If a second fridge is going to a relative or to a friend's place, tell us and it becomes a drop on the route. If it is being sold, sell it from the old flat where the buyer can collect it. What you do not want is to pay to transport something twice, and that is exactly what happens when the decision gets postponed.
Measure the new place before either of you packs. Two households worth of furniture almost never fits, and the piece that has to go is much easier to identify with a tape measure than with a sofa blocking the doorway. Pay particular attention to the bedroom, because two double beds and two wardrobes is the combination that defeats most two bedroom flats here.
Label by person, not just by room. On a merge move the crew has no way of knowing whose cartons are whose, and at the far end you will want to open one person's kitchen things first rather than all of it at once. A marker and ten minutes is enough. The other thing worth doing is agreeing which flat gets emptied first and telling us at survey, because the second address always waits and the person who lives there should know that going in, it saves a slightly tense phone call at lunchtime.
