Packers and Movers in Jakkur Layout

A 1 BHK portion is usually Rs 3,500 to Rs 6,500, a 2 BHK Rs 6,000 to Rs 10,500 and a full independent house Rs 9,000 to Rs 16,000. Houses here sit higher in their band than flats of the same size because there is no lift and there is usually a terrace. The survey fixes your figure.

No, and nobody who is not a plumber should. Pulling a submersible out of a borewell needs the right equipment and some care with the cable, and a starter panel is electrical work. Get that done the day before and we will pack and carry the pump from there.

Yes, it has to be empty and dry first. It is light but very bulky, so it takes real space on the vehicle, and on a narrow terrace staircase it sometimes goes down on a rope rather than through the stairwell. We check the stair at survey.

That is between you and the owner, and it is worth settling in writing before the day. We have seen tenants and owners both certain it was theirs. If you have the bill, keep it, and photograph the installation before anything is removed.

Sometimes not. If the new house already has a working pump, the cost of a plumber at both ends can come close to the price of a new one. Selling it to the incoming tenant is often the cheaper answer, and we would rather tell you that than carry it.

It has to be drained properly first, then it travels upright on a plastic sheet with the openings taped. Some water always stays in a pump body, so it goes low on the vehicle and never on top of mattresses or cartons of clothes.

Most layout roads take a medium vehicle without trouble, a few cross roads are narrow or have cars parked on both sides through the morning, and there we park at the corner and carry a short distance. The survey tells us which it is.

Yes, once an electrician has disconnected it. They are compact and heavy for their size, and they get packed in a carton with padding around the motor end. Keep the fittings and clamps in a labelled bag taped to it.

That is a job for the installer, not a mover, because it has to be drained, the panels taken down and the frame unbolted. Once it is down and in pieces we can carry it. Most people leave the heater with the house, and that is usually the sensible call.

A two floor independent house with a terrace is a full day for a crew of four or five. Stairs are the slow part. If the water system is being moved as well, start early, because the pump and tank are loaded first and low.

Not for a residential street, but it helps to tell the neighbours the evening before. On a narrow road the vehicle blocks a gate or two for a couple of hours, and a word the night before saves an argument at eight in the morning.

Mostly the things a society used to do for you. Nobody reserves a lift, nobody stores your spare cartons and nobody fixes the pump when it fails. Buy a couple of spare pipe fittings and find a local plumber before you need one, it saves a dry weekend later.

Yes. Tools get wrapped and boxed so the blades do not cut through other cartons, and hose reels are drained and tied. Wet mud on garden things is the most common thing that spoils a clean load, so knock it off a day before.

Yes, and a short move like that is often done with one vehicle doing two trips. It is still priced by the load and the stairs rather than the distance, because the carry takes the same time whether the next house is round the corner or across the city.

Yes, if it is clean and the cable is coiled. Submersibles are long and awkward, so tell us the length at survey. The cable is the fragile part, and a kink in it can mean a new cable at the other end.

Yes, it is available and priced on declared value. For a house move with heavy electrical items like pumps and inverters it is worth having, because those are the things most likely to take a knock on a staircase.

We move inverters once they are switched off and disconnected. Batteries are heavy and contain acid, so they travel upright in their own place on the vehicle, never on their side. If a battery is old, it is often better to exchange it locally than to move it.

Yes. Intercity moves are priced per kilometre on our standard rates, and a house with a pump and tanks is packed more carefully for a long journey. Tell us early, because the vehicle size for a full house is different from a local move.

For an independent house, a survey is worth it. Photos show furniture well and show stairs, terraces and plumbing badly, and those are exactly what change the price here. We can visit from the Devanahalli side on most weekdays.

No, sump cleaning is a separate job and some owners ask for it at handover. If your agreement says the sump has to be cleaned, book that for the day after we have left, so the cleaners are not working around the crew.

A week is comfortable, two if you are moving at a month end. The extra time is for your plumber and electrician rather than for us. They get busy at the same time of the month that we do.

It usually helps, because somebody is there to agree what stays and to open the terrace. It also means the shared staircase is theirs too, so we put down floor sheets on the landings and keep the carry off their door. Tell them the start time the day before.

We can bring your pump across and leave it by the sump, packed and labelled with its fittings. Installing it is the electrician's job, and it is worth booking them for the same evening, because a house without water on the first night is the thing people remember about a move.
