Shifting from Chennai to Pune for a new job, or moving the whole family? We pack your house in Chennai, load it in a closed container and deliver it to your flat in Pune, usually in 2 to 3 days on a dedicated truck and 4 to 6 days on a shared truck. Our packers and movers Chennai to Pune charges start at around ₹13,500 for a small 1 BHK on part load. Car and bike transport can be booked along with the household goods, so you deal with one team and one bill.
Choose the move type to send an enquiry. Keep your item list, exact pickup and delivery addresses, preferred dates, floor levels, lift suitability and parking details ready for the moving discussion.
| Road distance | Around 1,180 km (depends on exact pickup and drop points) |
|---|---|
| Dedicated truck | 2 to 3 days after loading |
| Shared truck (part load) | 4 to 6 days, sometimes 7 for 3 BHK loads |
| 1 BHK starting price | ₹13,500 onwards (part load) |
| Car transport | ₹11,500 onwards for a hatchback, 3 to 5 days |
| Bike transport | ₹3,200 onwards for a scooter, 3 to 5 days |
Packing Reference
Use this reference image to discuss carton labels, furniture preparation and protection for awkward items. Your shipment list should identify what is packed, what is dismantled, and which loose parts or accessories travel together. Keep condition records before collection.
Allow for a road journey of roughly 1,180 km when planning a Chennai to Pune move; the actual distance depends on both addresses and the route taken. Packing, loading and unloading take time in addition to travel. Ask for the dispatch date and expected delivery window before arranging your own travel or handing back your Chennai keys.
Keep preparation, loading, transit and destination unloading as separate parts of the schedule. Your personal travel and accommodation can be planned around a receiving window and a backup arrangement if the property is not ready.
Keep the item list, quote and handover records consistent. Allocate responsibility for the documents relevant to the offered transport and billing service, and for any employer-required records, before booking.
Highlight fragile surfaces, electronics, glass and upholstered pieces. Choose suitable packing and preparation for each item, taking the offered vehicle and handling arrangements into account.
At the Chennai pickup, ask your association about loading hours and reserving the goods lift. Check whether large furniture fits through the lift door and stair turns. If a truck cannot enter the lane, measure the carry from the nearest permitted stopping point. Entrance photos help identify extra carrying before moving day.
Not sure? Share your item list with us. Sometimes a packed 1 BHK actually needs more space than a half-empty 2 BHK, and we will tell you honestly which option makes sense.
Two families with the same 2 BHK can get quotes that are ₹6,000 to ₹8,000 apart. That's normal, and here is why:
Check the written quote for packing material, labour, loading, freight and unloading. The items below may be included or charged separately depending on your inventory and delivery access.
| Item | When it applies | How the charge is agreed |
|---|---|---|
| Tolls and GST | As applicable to the service and route | Written in the quote |
| Tempo transfer in Pune | When the big truck can't reach your building, common in the peth areas | Quoted after checking your address |
| Stair carrying | No goods lift, or the item won't fit in it | Quoted separately before booking |
| Split AC removal in Chennai | Done by an AC technician. Fitting in Pune is arranged separately. | Quoted separately before booking |
| Wooden crate | Glass tops, marble, idols, big mirrors, costly bikes | On request |
| Storage in Chennai | Pune flat not ready yet | Quoted separately before booking |
Weather plays a bigger role on this route than people think. Chennai gets its heavy rain during the north-east monsoon, roughly October to December, and wet packing days are no fun. Pune and the ghat sections near Kolhapur and Satara get the south-west monsoon from June to September. We use waterproof sheets and closed containers in every season, but if your dates are flexible, January to May is the smoothest window.
April end to June is also the peak season because of school admissions and job changes, so book at least 10 to 15 days in advance if you are moving then.
One more thing people from Chennai don't expect: Pune gets properly cold in December and January, especially at night. If you're moving in winter, keep a sweater and a blanket in the bag that travels with you, not in a carton on the truck.
Tick the items you plan to move to add their preset cubic-foot (CFT) allowances and view an illustrative price bucket. Use the list to start the conversation; item dimensions, quantities, packing and access will refine the actual load plan. Car and bike choices also add preset allowances to this model, so compare their separate vehicle-class rate examples below.
The checked items add preset volume allowances and select one of five model ranges. Use the goods list and relevant rate table to prepare an itemised moving scope.
These Chennai to Pune packers and movers charges are example ranges by home size and transport option. A lightly furnished 2 BHK can cost less to move than a packed 1 BHK, so compare quotes against the same item list. Ask for packing, loading, transport, unloading, tolls and applicable taxes to be listed, with any extras identified separately.

Household, office, vehicle and storage requirements can be planned together, while each part keeps its own preparation, handling and handover scope.
Household moving from Chennai to Pune. Create a room-by-room list of furniture, appliances and cartons, then specify packing, dismantling, loading, unloading and destination placement for the actual goods.
Office relocation based on an equipment, workstation and file inventory. Plan backups, labels, access windows and installation responsibilities around business needs.
Car transport from Chennai to Pune. Record the model, dimensions, marks, odometer, accessories and keys; agree carrier arrangements and collection/delivery handover details.
Bike transport from Chennai to Pune. Record model, modifications, accessories and condition, then agree preparation, packing or crating and receiving arrangements for the offered service.
Warehouse storage is available when collection and destination readiness do not align. Settle the actual location, duration, access, handling, charges and protection terms before collection.
List appliance disconnection, furniture dismantling and specialist setup as separate tasks. Allocate the work to the agreed provider and follow manufacturer preparation or restart instructions.
Your car goes on a proper car carrier truck, not driven by our driver. Hatchbacks like Swift, i20 or Baleno cost about ₹11,500 to ₹15,500, sedans and compact SUVs like City, Creta or Nexon about ₹14,000 to ₹19,500, and big SUVs like Fortuner or XUV700 about ₹18,500 to ₹25,000. It takes 3 to 5 days.
For long-term use in Pune, check the current registration and tax requirements with the relevant transport authorities before moving.
Activa, Jupiter or any scooter costs around ₹3,200 to ₹4,800, a normal commuter bike ₹4,200 to ₹6,000 and a Royal Enfield, KTM or bigger bike ₹6,000 to ₹8,500. We wrap the bike in bubble wrap and corrugated sheets, and for costly bikes we can do a wooden crate. Confirm the carrier’s fuel-level requirement, remove the helmet, side bags and any GPS unit, and click photos of existing scratches before we pack it.
If an employer will reimburse your move, obtain its approved-mover requirements and document checklist before booking. Packers and Movers in Chennai is not IBA-approved. Keep the employer's acceptance decision separate from the quote and service arrangements.
We are not approved by the Indian Banks' Association (IBA). Your employer decides which movers and records it accepts and whether reimbursement is available.
Use these stages to connect the item list, agreed service scope and destination handover. Keep packing, transport and delivery readiness distinct in the schedule.
Count cartons and list large items room by room. Add photos or dimensions for bulky furniture, plus the floors, lifts and parking details at both addresses. Use this one inventory when comparing estimates.
Separate personal documents, medicines and valuables to carry yourself. Label packed boxes by room and keep furniture fittings with the matching inventory record. Make clear which items you pack and which the crew packs.
Count boxes and furniture against the collection inventory before the truck leaves. Note existing marks and retain a copy of the item list and handover record.
Save the dispatch contact and expected arrival window. Keep the Pune receiving person informed, and tell the mover promptly if keys, lift access or the delivery slot change.
At delivery, count the boxes and inspect furniture and screens against the collection record. Photograph missing or damaged items and note discrepancies on the delivery receipt before completing the handover.
Check that the furniture placement and assembly included in your quote are finished. Keep the signed delivery receipt, invoice and inventory together for follow-up or employer reimbursement.
A useful packing plan identifies fragile surfaces, heavy or awkward pieces, removable parts and the conditions of the offered transport. Describe the protection item by item so preparation and material choices are clear.
Use strong cartons and cushion empty spaces so contents cannot shift on a long road journey. Put heavy items in smaller boxes and keep each box manageable to lift. Write the destination room and box number on two sides, and mark fragile contents clearly.
Keep TV and monitor boxes if you still have them. Screens, mirrors and glass tops need padding and protection from pressure; identify them separately so the packing plan does not treat them as ordinary cartons. Photograph their condition before wrapping.
Protect exposed furniture corners and polished surfaces. Keep dismantled fittings in a labelled bag with the matching furniture record, and photograph how unfamiliar pieces fit together. Give upholstered items a clean cover before loading.
Work through the checklist by preparation stage. It helps organise a move whether your dates are fixed or still flexible.
Use your inventory and both-address details to request an itemised moving quote. Include preferred dates, preparation tasks, receiving arrangements and any storage or vehicle transport needs in the discussion.
Call +91 7015580411 Chat on WhatsAppMost of our Chennai to Pune moves go to the IT belts, Hinjewadi, Wakad, Baner, Balewadi and Tathawade on the west side and Kharadi, Viman Nagar, Hadapsar and Magarpatta on the east side. A few things save a lot of headache on delivery day:
Coming the other way? See our Chennai to Bangalore shifting page if you are only going as far as Bangalore, or call us for Pune to Chennai moves.
Ask your landlord and society office for the move-in document checklist before dispatch. Confirm which tenancy documents, identification, permission forms and vehicle details they need, and who will arrange them. Keep written approval and the unloading slot ready before the truck leaves Chennai so the goods are not held at the gate.
On a shared truck, a 1 BHK costs around ₹13,500 to ₹19,500, a 2 BHK ₹19,500 to ₹27,500 and a 3 BHK ₹26,500 to ₹34,500. On a dedicated truck it is about ₹23,000 to ₹29,000 for 1 BHK, ₹29,000 to ₹37,500 for 2 BHK and ₹37,000 to ₹47,500 for 3 BHK. The exact figure depends on how many items you have and the access at both buildings.
A dedicated truck usually reaches in 2 to 3 days after loading. A shared truck takes 4 to 6 days, and sometimes 7 for bigger loads. Packing and loading are normally done on the same day.
About ₹11,500 to ₹15,500 for a hatchback, ₹14,000 to ₹19,500 for a sedan or compact SUV and ₹18,500 to ₹25,000 for a large SUV or luxury car. It goes on a car carrier and takes 3 to 5 days.
Scooters cost around ₹3,200 to ₹4,800, commuter bikes ₹4,200 to ₹6,000 and Royal Enfield or sports bikes ₹6,000 to ₹8,500, including packing.
Yes. For a few cartons, a bed, a fridge or a washing machine, part load on a shared truck is the cheapest way. Share the list and we will quote for just those items.
GST is shown as a separate line in our written quote so you can see the exact amount. You get a GST invoice after the move.
Yes, it is optional. The premium depends on the value you declare. Read the policy terms before you take it, and keep photos of costly items taken before packing.
No, we are not IBA-approved. We do give a GST invoice, LR copy and itemised inventory, which many companies accept. Please check with your HR team first.
We can keep your goods in our warehouse in Chennai and send them once the flat is ready. Storage is charged per month and the second dispatch is planned in advance.
Gas cylinders with gas, petrol, acids, firecrackers and other inflammable things are not allowed. Jewellery, cash and original documents should travel with you, not in the truck.
One week ahead is usually enough. For month-end dates or the April to June peak season, book 10 to 15 days in advance.
Share the society’s permitted unloading hours before booking. We will coordinate the arrival with those hours and the transport plan. Keep a receiving contact available and confirm the slot before your goods leave Chennai.
The exact address, vehicle access, floors and unloading work matter more than the city label. Share the gate location and lift details. If a smaller vehicle or longer carry is needed, ask for it to be included in the written quote.
