Top 5 Tips on a Smooth Household Shifting in Pune
The relocation to a new house in Pune must not be a tense experience, but a new adventure. Pune has a thriving IT industry, known as having a rich culture, educational institutions and a great lifestyle. Nevertheless, living in one of the busiest cities in the country also presents its own hurdles in terms of finding your way around a family change, such as how to choose the right moment to avoid the notorious traffic of Pune or how to go through a zigzag of tiny lanes in the old areas.
We have years of experience in ensuring that relocations take place smoothly in all corners of the city, be it Kothrud to Hinjewadi, or Viman Nagar to Kondhwa, at PMS Care Relocation Packers and Movers. Riding on our experience, we have come up with five tips that are absolute necessities to make your move into Pune orderly and not at all hectic.
Introduction: Pune in Transition
Pune is a city of contrasts that is a mixture of old peths and the new suburbs. It is more than moving boxes to make a successful move here that was meant to need some local knowledge. Such aspects as the restrictions to access to buildings, availability of parking place to large trucks, and seasonal weather conditions (heavy rains during monsoon, in particular) have to be taken into consideration. A transition is most likely to be smooth as a strategic approach to the specific environment in Pune is applied.
Tip 1: That you need to plan and book your movers well ahead
Last-minute deals are a stress case and over-priced in a vibrant city such as Pune. The most qualified packers and movers are booked fast, particularly at the end of the month or in the peak season.
Why This is Crucial in Pune:
Peak Season Demand: The high student and professional population of the city results in a high demand of movers, especially in May- June and December.
Confirmed Availability: With advanced reservation, you can be sure of getting the date you want and you do not have to settle on an unreliable service.
Improved Pricing: There will be a higher chance of getting a competitive fixed quote without the last-minute surge pricing.
The PMS Care Advantage:
By booking with us early, we can arrange a pre-move survey to suit you, so we can strategise about possible Pune-specific difficulties, like narrow access roads in places like Koregaon Park or Camp, far before the day of movement.
Tip 2: Clean out Ruthlessly Before You Pack
The price of your move is directly related to the size of goods that you are transporting. The most effective thing to do is to cut down on the clutter in order to save time, money and energy.
A Pune-Specific Strategy:
Dispose Old Stuff: Use local Pune websites such as Pune specific Facebook pages, OLX, and Quickr in selling furniture and appliances as well as books. This is facilitated by the big and vibrant online community that the city boasts of.
Donate Generously: You can look at giving donations to various charities and shelters in Pune. It is cost-effective, and it is also an excellent means of giving back to the community you are leaving or joining.
Climate Changes: The climate of Pune is fairly mild. Be realistic on the winter clothes or heavy blankets you require, particularly when relocating out of a colder area.
Tips: Divide the materials into three piles: Keep, Sell/Donate and Discard. Be merciless. The minimal amount of stuff you carry, the more easily and swiftly you will move.
Tip 3: Select a Hyper-Local Expert in Mover
Not every packer and mover are aware of how to move in and out of Pune. The company that knows everything about the locality is priceless.
What to Look For:
Society Rules Awareness: There are a lot of society rules that are known to houses in Pune (particularly new such as Wagholi or Baner) about regulations on moving hours, elevator reservation, and truck parking. These protocols will be known by a local expert.
Navigation Knowledge: A mover conversant with Pune will be able to be aware of the areas of traffic congestion (such as the Satara Road intersection or University Road) and be able to route around those.
Monsoon Preparedness: Pune may be as unsparing as the monsoon. A local mover will also provide waterproof covers to protect your goods against rain and humidity, non-slip mats and instructions to preserve your belongings when loading and unloading.
Why PMS Care Fits the Bill:
Our teams are based in Pune. We know that it is not the same to move a flat in a high rise in Kharadi or a row house in Shivajinagar. It is this local knowledge that enables us to foresee issues and work out how to resolve them before they occur.
Tip 4: Have a Pune First-Night Essentials Box
When you are exhausted after a day of shifting, the last thing that you want to do is to spend hours searching through a mountain of boxes to find a charger or a toothbrush. It is a general survival tip, but it is especially applicable when you may be exhausted by the snarl-up traffic in Pune.
What to put in your Essentials Box:
Toiletries: Toilet soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels.
Drugs: Prescription drugs and first-aid kit.
Change of Clothes: To the family all around.
Phone Chargers and Power Banks: Essential to be connected.
Snacks, Tea/Coffee, and Water Bottles: Maintain the energy level.
Moving Documents: Your house papers, IDs and other moving documents must be kept in a single folder.
Mark this box well with an open first label and load last into the truck to enable it come out first. This will be a small move that will see to it that your first evening in your new Pune home is not a messy one.
Tip 5: Be able to communicate with your building management
This is an essential and mostly ignored procedure to a smooth relocation in the Pune apartment-filled landscape.
Pre-Move Checklist Society Rules:
Advance Notice: When you are moving, not less than a week ahead, notify your old and new secretaries of the housing society of the day of your move and the times of your expected arrival.
Elevator Booking: In most societies, you have to book the service elevator to be moved around. Get this done early enough and eliminate problems and postponements.
Parking Permission: Be sure to have a designated spot on which the moving truck is parked without hampering with other residents. The mover is possibly required to give vehicle documentation to be cleared.
Refundable Deposit: There are societies where they have to pay a security deposit on a move in case they damage the common spaces. Be prepared for this.
When done proactively, these administrative operations help you avoid surprises on moving-day and guarantee a quick and efficient loading and unloading operation.
