Packers and Movers in New Thippasandra

New Thippasandra is an old, settled part of east Bangalore, and the households reflect it. Families who have been in the same house for fifteen or twenty five years, with a loft, a store room, a spare bedroom that became a store room, and a quantity of possessions that nobody has counted since they arrived. When we survey a house like this the number that surprises people is not the price. It is the volume, because memory reliably undercounts by about a third. That makes decluttering the highest value conversation available, and it is one most movers avoid, because a mover recommending you move less is arguing against his own invoice. Weigh what follows accordingly. The things that cost the most to move and are worth the least at the far end are, in order: old mattresses, damaged particle board furniture, dead electronics, and cartons of paper nobody has opened since the last move. Getting those out of the house before we arrive routinely takes a household down a vehicle size. Be clear about what we will and will not do, because this is where people are let down. We will carry anything you decide to keep. We will not dispose of your goods, run a scrap trip, or take away rubbish, because we are a moving company and disposal is a different trade with different rules. What we will do is tell you at survey which items are not worth the cost of their own transport, and give you a fortnight's warning so you can call a scrap dealer or list them yourself while there is still time.

Moving Insights for New Thippasandra

Start with the loft, not the bedrooms. Everybody begins with the visible rooms because they feel manageable, then runs out of energy before reaching the loft, and the loft is emptied in a panic on the final evening into unlabelled cartons that stay sealed for years afterwards. Open it first, while you still have the appetite to make decisions about what is in it. Sell or give away at least two weeks ahead. A buyer for a fridge or a bed who says he will come on moving morning will, in our experience, arrive at lunchtime, and by then you and a paid crew are both standing about waiting for a stranger. We will not hold an item for a buyer or get involved in the money, and saying so now is fairer than saying it while a crew waits in your driveway.
