Sofa Shifting Services
Move a sofa or a full sofa set on its own. Verified partners wrap it in padded covers, carry it and set it down at the new address.
A sofa is big, soft and easy to scuff. It has to fit through doors and turns, and its fabric picks up dirt the moment it touches a truck floor. That is why it needs padding, not just a pair of hands.
Partners wrap the sofa in quilted covers and stretch film, carry it out and move it in a small vehicle with space to keep it upright. You compare their quotes before anyone arrives.
What partners move
- Two-seater and three-seater sofas
- Full sofa sets with chairs
- L-shaped and sectional sofas
- Recliners and sofa-cum-beds
- Diwans and settees

Before the team arrives

Sofa shifting FAQs
Can an L-shaped or sectional sofa be moved?
Yes. Most come apart into sections, which makes them easier to carry and safer in the vehicle. Mention the shape when you request quotes.
How is the sofa protected on the way?
It goes into quilted covers or bubble wrap, then stretch film, and rides upright or flat depending on the frame. Legs and armrests get extra padding.
What if the sofa does not fit through the door?
The team can often remove legs or tilt it through. For a tight fit, share the door and lift sizes in advance so the partner comes prepared.
How much does sofa shifting cost?
Moving one sofa within a city starts at about ₹392 through ShiftingHub, and a 100 km move starts at about ₹630. The final price depends on distance, size, stairs and any dismantling. Partners quote after you share the details, and comparing them is free.
Can I move just one sofa without a full house shifting?
Yes. That is what this service is for. You book the sofa on its own, and a partner sends a small vehicle instead of a full truck.
Are the movers verified?
Every partner clears a GST check, a background check and an office audit before listing. We show their real Google rating.
Is getting quotes free?
Yes. You post one request and compare the quotes at no cost. Moving companies pay to be listed, not you.
