Packers and Movers in Soladevanahalli

A single room or small student load starts at Rs 2,999, a 1 BHK is usually Rs 3,500 to Rs 6,500 and a shared 2 BHK Rs 6,000 to Rs 10,500. Small loads here sit at the bottom of the band. The figure is written after a quick survey or a video call.

Yes, if it's clean. Before loading, the crew checks the seams and corners. A mattress with signs of bed bugs doesn't go on the vehicle, because it would put every other carton on board at risk.

In daylight, look along the seams and piping, the corners and the underside. Small dark spots, tiny pale shells or live insects are the signs. Check the bed frame joints and headboard too. Do it a week before the move.

The affected mattress or frame stays behind, and the supervisor will explain what they saw. Everything else can still move. It's awkward on the day, which is why checking a week ahead is so much better.

For a cheap second hand mattress, throwing it away is usually the better answer. Proper treatment costs more than the mattress is worth and doesn't always work in a single visit. For good furniture, pest control is the route.

Hot wash and a hot dryer, or a full day in strong sun, then pack them in sealed bags. Bed bugs die at high heat. Clothes packed straight from an infested room can carry them to the new place.

They can hide in the folds of soft things, bags and cardboard, which is why we bring fresh cartons rather than reusing old ones from a shared house. Hard items like books and electronics are low risk if they come from a clean room.

Yes. Each person's things are labelled with their name before we arrive, and if people are going to different addresses we plan the drops at survey. Shared items, fridge, sofa, water purifier, need an owner decided before the day.

A part load on a shared vehicle, midweek, with your own bags packed. Starting at Rs 2,999. If it's genuinely a couple of bags and a cycle, a cab might be cheaper, and we'd tell you that.

Yes, intercity moves are priced per kilometre on our standard rates. For a small student load, a part load or shared vehicle to your home city is far cheaper than a dedicated truck.

Check it exactly the way you'd check your own, in daylight, before it comes indoors. Ask how old it is and where it's been. A new basic mattress is often a better buy than a used one of unknown history.

Yes, dismantled and checked. Cot joints are one of the places bed bugs hide, so the crew looks at them as the cot comes apart. Clean frames move as normal.

Yes, cycles go wrapped on the household vehicle. Front wheel off if needed, pedals turned in. They're light and simple to move.

Yes, on a carrier for Rs 2,500 to Rs 5,500. Run the tank low for a couple of days before. For a student going home, sending the scooter with the household saves a separate booking.

The main road is fine. Some of the lanes with student houses are narrow, and there we park at the nearest wide point and carry. Small loads mean the carry is quick.

The end of the academic year and the start of a new term, when a lot of students move in the same few weeks. Book early for those weeks. The rest of the year is much easier.

It stays. If the room came furnished, check the inventory with the owner before we arrive so nobody packs the landlord's cot by mistake. Tell the supervisor which pieces are yours.

Yes, short term storage in Bangalore is priced monthly on volume. Clean, dry and bed bug free only, which is another reason to check the mattress before storing it.

Of course, plenty of families live here too, and those are ordinary house moves. The student side just brings up the mattress question more often.

Small cartons. Books are heavy, and a big carton of them can't be lifted safely. Bags split. Small cartons, filled to the top so they don't crush, work best.

We don't run a disposal service. A local scrap collector or the building owner can usually arrange it. Don't leave an infested mattress in a common area, it spreads the problem to the next tenant.

Often yes for a small load, since a part load can join a vehicle already heading this way. Tell us the day and the size of the load and we'll say honestly what's possible.

Yes, on declared value. For a small load it's usually only worth it for a laptop or a new appliance, and a laptop should travel with you anyway.

Laptop, documents, college certificates, ID, chargers and anything you need for exams. Those stay in your bag. Everything else can go on the vehicle.

No. Bed bugs have nothing to do with how clean a room is. They travel on people and belongings from one shared space to the next. Treating it as a hygiene issue just makes people hide it.

Yes, once it's been disconnected and drained. Decide who owns it first, it's the item most often argued over when flatmates split.

For end of term moves, two weeks, because every house on the lane seems to move in the same fortnight. For any other time of year, a few days is often enough for a small load, and a part load can sometimes be fitted in the same week.

Your things can go, but check them properly first, because bed bugs move between rooms in a shared house. Look at your own mattress, bags and the seams of anything soft. If yours is clear, the crew will still take a look before loading. It's a few minutes and it protects your new room as much as anyone's.

Yes, every mattress that's cleared to travel goes into a plastic mattress cover before loading. It keeps the mattress clean on the vehicle and keeps anything else on board away from it. The cover also means the mattress arrives at the new room the way it left the old one.
