2026 Moving Price List
Packers and Movers Ahmedabad Charges
What packers and movers actually charge in Ahmedabad in 2026. Transparent rates by home size, vehicle transport, GST and a sample bill, with free quotes on tap.
Moving charges in Ahmedabad depend on three things: how much you are shifting, how far it goes, and how much packing and handling you want. The tables below give real 2026 ranges from our verified partner network so you can size up a fair price before you talk to anyone.
Use these figures to sanity-check any quote you receive. A free pre-move survey turns a range into an exact, itemised number, and you only pay the partner you choose.
What changes the price in Ahmedabad
Which side of the Sabarmati you are moving between decides most of an Ahmedabad quote. The western belt through SG Highway, Bopal, Thaltej, Bodakdev and Prahlad Nagar is tower stock with service lifts and basement loading, and those societies want a move slot and a gate pass sorted before the truck arrives. East of the river the old walled city pols and the lanes around Maninagar are tight enough that a full truck waits on the main road while goods come out by tempo, which adds handling time to the bill.
Ahmedabad is Gujarat's freight hub and that works in your favour on price. Vehicles leave for Mumbai, Rajkot, Surat and Vadodara every day, so a smaller household can usually ride a part load instead of paying for a truck to itself. The industrial estates at Naroda and on the city's edge mean a good number of partners here handle office and plant shifts alongside households, which is worth knowing if your move is company paid and needs proper documentation.

| 1 BHK | ₹1,526–₹2,450 | ₹3,147–₹5,040 |

All figures exclude 18% GST. A free survey confirms the exact, itemised amount.
Cost by distance
The same household, priced across common distances from Ahmedabad. Longer hauls cost more because of fuel, tolls, driver time and a bigger vehicle.
| Home size | Local | ~250 km | ~500 km | ~1,000 km | ~1,500 km |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 BHK | ₹1,526–₹2,450 | ₹3,500–₹5,600 | ₹5,600–₹8,960 | ₹9,800–₹15,680 | ₹14,000–₹22,400 |
| 2 BHK | ₹2,258–₹3,605 | ₹4,725–₹7,560 | ₹7,350–₹11,760 | ₹12,600–₹20,160 | ₹17,850–₹28,560 |
| 3 BHK | ₹2,958–₹4,725 | ₹5,425–₹8,680 | ₹8,050–₹12,880 | ₹13,300–₹21,280 | ₹18,550–₹29,680 |
Ranges exclude GST and full-packing upgrades. Vehicle transport is priced separately below.
Per-km rates by load size
Every figure above is built the same way: a fixed charge that covers packing, loading and unloading, plus a rate for each kilometre travelled. Here is the split for Ahmedabad.
| Load size | Base from | Per km |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RK / Studio | ₹1,050 | ₹7 |
| 1 BHK | ₹1,400 | ₹8.40 |
| 2 BHK | ₹2,100 | ₹10.50 |
| 3 BHK | ₹2,800 | ₹10.50 |
| 4 BHK | ₹4,200 | ₹12.60 |
| 5 BHK / Villa | ₹4,900 | ₹14 |
| Office / Commercial | ₹3,500 | ₹10.50 |
| Car transport | ₹350 | ₹5.60 |
| Bike transport | ₹350 | ₹2.80 |
These are starting rates and exclude 18% GST. Worked for Ahmedabad: a 2 BHK moving 15 km across town comes to ₹2,258, and the same home on a 208 km haul comes to ₹4,284, both at the lower end. The upper end of every range on this page runs up to 60% higher once full packing, stairs or difficult access are involved. A 2 BHK and a 3 BHK carry the same per-km rate because the extra cost of a larger home is in the handling, not the driving.
Vehicle transport rates
Send a car or two-wheeler on an insured carrier instead of driving it yourself. Rates are by distance from Ahmedabad.
| Vehicle | ~250 km | ~500 km | ~1,000 km | ~1,500 km |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bike / scooter | ₹1,050–₹1,680 | ₹1,750–₹2,800 | ₹3,150–₹5,040 | ₹4,550–₹7,280 |
| Car / sedan | ₹1,750–₹2,800 | ₹3,150–₹5,040 | ₹5,950–₹9,520 | ₹8,750–₹14,000 |
| SUV / MUV | ₹2,205–₹3,535 | ₹3,955–₹6,335 | ₹7,455–₹11,935 | ₹10,955–₹17,535 |
Open or enclosed carrier, GPS tracking and transit insurance on every booking. Premium or vintage cars are priced on survey.
What truck size will I need?
A rough guide to the vehicle your load needs. Your partner confirms the right size after the survey.
| Load | Recommended vehicle | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RK / 1 BHK | Tata Ace or 14 ft tempo | light load, single trip |
| 2 BHK | 17 ft closed truck | standard household |
| 3 BHK | 19–22 ft container | heavier load, more furniture |
| 4 BHK | 22–32 ft container | full home, dedicated vehicle |
| 5 BHK / Villa | 32 ft container or two vehicles | multi-floor, larger team |
| Long-haul interstate | 32 ft multi-axle container | GPS-tracked, dedicated or shared part-load |
Packing material by home size
Basic packing is already inside the moving charge, so it is worth knowing what that covers. This is the material a partner brings for a typical home in Ahmedabad.
| Home size | Cartons | Wrap and covers |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RK / Studio | 17 cartons (7 small, 7 medium, 3 large) | 2 bubble rolls, 2 tape rolls, 2 furniture covers |
| 1 BHK | 30 cartons (12 small, 12 medium, 6 large) | 3 bubble rolls, 3 tape rolls, 3 furniture covers |
| 2 BHK | 50 cartons (20 small, 20 medium, 10 large) | 5 bubble rolls, 5 tape rolls, 5 furniture covers |
| 3 BHK | 75 cartons (30 small, 30 medium, 15 large) | 8 bubble rolls, 7 tape rolls, 8 furniture covers |
| 4 BHK+ / Villa | 109 cartons (44 small, 44 medium, 21 large) | 12 bubble rolls, 10 tape rolls, 11 furniture covers |
Counts are estimated from the volume a home of that size typically holds, so a sparsely furnished flat needs less. Fragile-heavy homes need more wrap, which is most of why full professional packing adds 10 to 15 percent.

Cheapest month to move in Ahmedabad
Timing changes the price. The cheapest months to move in Ahmedabad are usually January and February, and the monsoon weeks of July and August, when demand dips. Rates climb through the summer of April to June and around Diwali in October and November.
A mid-month weekday is almost always cheaper than a month-end weekend. If your dates are flexible, share two or three options and let your partner pick the best slot.

Ahmedabad moving charges FAQs
How much do packers and movers charge in Ahmedabad?
For a local move within Ahmedabad, a 1 BHK typically runs ₹1,526–₹2,450, a 2 BHK ₹2,258–₹3,605 and a 3 BHK ₹2,958–₹4,725, before 18% GST. Your exact charge depends on how much you are shifting, the packing you want and access at both ends.
Can a moving truck reach homes inside Ahmedabad's old city pols?
Usually not to the door. The pols east of the Sabarmati and the lanes around Maninagar are too narrow for a full truck, so partners park on the main road and shuttle goods in by tempo or by hand. That extra handling appears as its own line, so mention the pol by name during the survey.
What is the movers and packers Ahmedabad price list for 2026?
This page is the full price list: cost by home size, cost by distance, the per-km rates behind those figures, vehicle transport, packing material, add-on charges and a worked sample bill. A local 1 BHK in Ahmedabad starts at ₹1,526 before 18% GST. The figures come from live partner pricing rather than a fixed tariff, so compare a few quotes before you book.
What is the per-km rate for packers and movers in Ahmedabad?
A 2 BHK works out at ₹10.50 per kilometre on top of a ₹2,100 base charge, and a 1 BHK at ₹8.40 on a ₹1,400 base. The base covers packing, loading and unloading, which happen whether you move down the road or across the country, so short moves look expensive per kilometre and long ones look cheap.
Is GST included in the moving charges?
No. The ranges shown here exclude GST. Packers and movers add 18% GST on the labour and transport, and it appears as a separate line on your invoice. The sample bill above shows how it adds up.
What is the packing charge in Ahmedabad?
Basic packing with cartons, bubble wrap and tape is already included in the moving charge, and the material table above shows roughly what that means for each home size. Full professional packing for fragile-heavy homes adds roughly 10 to 15 percent, since it uses more material and more time.
How is transit insurance calculated?
Transit insurance is optional and usually costs around 3 percent of the declared value of your goods. It covers damage or loss on the road. For a high-value home it is worth adding; for a light local shift many people skip it.
Which is the cheapest month to move in Ahmedabad?
January to February and the monsoon weeks of July to August are usually the cheapest, because demand is lower. April to June and the Diwali season of October to November are the priciest. A mid-month weekday beats a month-end weekend in any month.
How much does it cost to move from Ahmedabad to Gandhinagar?
A 2 BHK move from Ahmedabad to Gandhinagar (about 22 km) runs roughly ₹2,331–₹3,745 before GST, with 1–2 hrs transit. See the Ahmedabad to Gandhinagar page for the full breakdown and free quotes.
What size truck will I need for a 2 BHK?
A 2 BHK usually fits a 17 ft closed truck. A 1 RK or 1 BHK goes in a Tata Ace or 14 ft tempo, while a 3 BHK or villa needs a 19 to 32 ft container. Your partner confirms the size after the survey.
Are there any hidden charges?
There should not be. A good partner gives an itemised quote after a free survey and flags extras like stair-carrying without a lift or long carry up front. Compare quotes on ShiftingHub and you only pay the partner you pick.
