Packers and Movers in Jayanagar 1st Block
Older houses in Jayanagar often have a plastic overhead tank on the terrace, a pump by the sump and a water filter by the kitchen tap that the tenant or owner added over the years. When you move, the question is simple and often argued over: which of these are yours to take, and how do they come down safely?

Professional Packers and Movers in Jayanagar 1st Block, Bangalore
Packers and movers in Jayanagar 1st Block work in one of the older blocks of Jayanagar, one of Bangalore's oldest planned neighbourhoods, with wide tree lined roads, independent houses on generous plots and portions let floor by floor. Our Jayanagar page covers moving into a very old building. This page is about the water system that many of these houses have gathered over the years: the plastic overhead tank on the terrace, the pump by the sump, the pressure pump for the upper floor, the geyser and the kitchen filter, some fitted by the owner and some by tenants. Water fittings cause more moving day arguments than almost anything else in an older house. A tenant who has lived in a portion for ten years may have replaced the owner's pump, added a second tank when the first wasn't enough and fitted a filter in the kitchen. The owner may remember paying for some of it. Neither has the receipts. And on moving day, the crew is standing on the terrace wondering whether the tank is coming down or not. So the first step, well before the move, is to agree with the owner in writing exactly which fittings are yours to take and which stay with the house. Once that's settled, the practical part is straightforward but has to be done in the right order. A plumber disconnects the pump, the tank and the filter, drains them and caps the pipes the day before. The tank is emptied and left to dry, because a tank that still holds water is heavy and leaks. On the day, the tank comes down from the terrace, usually by the stairs, sometimes by rope if the stair is too narrow, and travels on top of the load, where it takes a lot of space for its weight. Pumps are drained and travel upright, with openings taped. Filters and small fittings go in a labelled carton with their clamps and screws. At the new house, check what's already there before reinstalling anything. A new house may already have a good pump and a tank, in which case yours may be better sold or given away than moved and refitted at the cost of two plumber visits. It's also worth thinking about what a house's water system says about the new place. A family used to a big overhead tank and a strong pump in an independent house may find an apartment's shared supply very different, with timings, pressure limits and rules about personal pumps. Ask the new building about its water before the move. It's easier to decide what to bring when you know what you're going into.
Moving Insights for Jayanagar 1st Block
Agree the fittings with the owner in writing before the move, ideally before you even give notice. A short message listing what you'll take and what stays, confirmed by the owner, prevents the most common Jayanagar tenancy argument. If you have receipts, keep them with the message. Book the plumber for the day before the move and ask them to drain the tank and pump completely and cap every pipe they disconnect. A capped pipe means the owner's water supply keeps working for the next tenant, and it means no leaks while we're carrying things through the house. Measure the terrace staircase before assuming the tank can come down it. Older Jayanagar houses sometimes have narrow, steep terrace stairs, and a large tank that went up before the parapet was built may not come down the same way. Tell us at survey if you're unsure. Leave the old house's water supply working when you go. Once the plumber has taken your fittings and capped the pipes, check that the owner's own tank still fills and the taps still run. A house left without water at handover is an easy way to start an argument about the deposit, and it takes a minute to check.

Frequently Asked Questions
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 larger house Rs 9,000 to Rs 16,000. Moving water tanks and pumps adds time, which goes into the quote. The survey gives you the figure in writing.
Yes, once a plumber has disconnected and drained it. It comes down the terrace stairs or by rope if the stair is too narrow, and travels on top of the load. Plastic tanks are light but awkward, so two people carry them.
No, that's a plumber's job, and it should be done the day before. We move the tank and pump once they're disconnected, drained and dry. A plumber is usually a quick visit.
Only what you installed and paid for, and even then it's worth agreeing with the owner in writing. Fittings the owner installed stay with the house. Receipts or photos from when you fitted them help settle it.
Settle it before the day, in writing. We can't decide who owns a fitting, and a crew can't wait on a terrace while it's argued out. Sometimes the fairest answer is to leave it and buy new.
Sometimes not. If the new house already has a good tank, yours may be better sold locally. Tanks take a lot of vehicle space for their value. A local buyer often takes it within a day or two.
Drained, dried as much as possible, openings taped and carried upright. It travels low on the vehicle and away from fabric and cartons. Any electrical parts are kept dry and wrapped.
An electrician or plumber disconnects it, and we pack it in a padded carton with its fittings. It's heavy for its size. Label its cables so the electrician can reconnect it easily.
Yes, once it's disconnected and drained. The filter cartridges can stay in or come out, depending on the manufacturer's advice. Most purifier companies will reinstall for a fee.
If it's yours, a plumber drains and removes it. Old geysers are often not worth moving, because installation at the new house costs close to a new one. Newer geysers are more often worth moving than old ones.
Then it may come down by rope from the terrace, if it's safe and the space below is clear, or it may be better left or sold. We check at survey. A smaller tank at the new house may suit anyway.
Yes, every disconnected pipe should be capped so the owner's water supply keeps working and nothing leaks while we're moving things. It also stops dirt getting into the owner's pipes.
Yes, often. Rosewood and teak cupboards, dining tables and steel almirahs are common in older Jayanagar homes and need a larger crew. The survey counts the heaviest pieces first. Doors and stair turns are measured for the largest pieces.
Jayanagar's roads are wide, and most houses can be reached easily by a medium vehicle. Parked cars on quieter streets sometimes narrow them. Wide roads make large items easier.
At peak hours on the main roads around Jayanagar. An early start keeps the day short and the terrace work cooler. Weekends are usually lighter.
Yes, moves within Jayanagar are common. If you're moving to the 3rd Block, our page for it covers heavy brass and bronze from old kitchens. The drive is short, so the day is mostly packing.
Yes, both are short moves. The time goes on the house and its fittings, not the drive. Short moves suit a morning start.
Yes, on declared value, shown on the quote. For a water system, the pumps are the expensive part worth declaring. Keep pump invoices if you have them.
Yes, short term storage in Bangalore is priced monthly on volume. Tanks and pumps must be completely dry before storage. Label each with where it came from.
They need the installer to drain and take them down. Once they're in pieces, we can move them. Most people leave them with the house. Leaving it usually suits the next owner too.
Yes. Plants, pots, clotheslines, old furniture and whatever's stored up there. Terraces often hold more than people remember, so we look at survey. Old paint tins and chemicals on terraces can't travel, so clear them early.
A full day for a 2 BHK portion with a tank and pump, sometimes more for a larger house. The plumber's visit the day before saves the most time. Terrace work is best done early, before the heat.
Whether it already has a tank and pump, and whether there's a point to connect yours. If not, plan the plumber before the move. Ask about water timings and pressure too.
Yes. Scooters on a carrier are Rs 2,500 to Rs 5,500 and cars Rs 6,000 to Rs 12,000. Both are loaded apart from the tanks and pumps.
Yes, small loads start at Rs 2,999, once a plumber has disconnected them. Tell us the tank's size so the right vehicle comes.
Yes, intercity moves are priced per kilometre on our standard rates. Water tanks are rarely worth moving a long distance. Sell the tank locally and buy one at the destination.
Of course, apartment moves here are common too. The water system question comes up mostly in independent houses and portions. Flats rarely have fittings of their own to move.
Which water fittings are yours, whether the plumber is booked, and how the terrace is reached. Photos of the tank help. Mention anything stored on the terrace.
Our main office is at Cheemasandra, and our crews work across Jayanagar and Basavanagudi regularly. Call +91 90908 28210 to arrange a survey. A visit is best for houses with terraces.
A week is usually enough. Give yourself time to agree fittings with the owner and book a plumber. Plumbers get busy at month ends too.
