General questions
Which areas do Dwaraka Packers and Movers serve from Karimnagar?
We are based in Karimnagar, Karimnagar district, Telangana, with branches in Hyderabad, Warangal, Siddipet, Jagtial and Sircilla. We run regular routes between Karimnagar, Warangal and Hyderabad, and handle long-distance moves to Bangalore, Chennai, Pune and any other city in India on request.
How do I get a quote for my move?
Message us on WhatsApp at 7799663509 or call the same number. We arrange a free survey at your home or office in Karimnagar, assess the volume, floor level and packing needed, and give you a fixed written quote. The price agreed at survey is the price you pay on moving day.
Is Dwaraka Packers and Movers GST registered?
Yes. Our GST registration number is 36KMOPK2468A1ZT. We issue GST-compliant invoices on every move, and we provide the IBA-format bills banks and employers ask for, which matters when a company or bank is reimbursing your relocation.
What packing material do you use?
Bubble wrap for glassware, crockery and electronics; stretch film and corrugated sheets on all furniture; and fresh, correctly sized cartons rather than reused boxes. Every carton is labelled by room. All material is supplied by us and included in the quote.
Do you move on Sundays and public holidays?
Yes. We operate 24 hours, all seven days. Weekend and holiday moves are common for office relocations because they avoid business downtime, and early-morning loading is often preferred for long-distance routes so the lorry clears the city before traffic builds.
What if my new house is not ready on the moving date?
We store your goods in our Karimnagar godown until you are ready. Everything is packed as though for transit, recorded on a written inventory, and kept off the floor on pallets. Storage is booked by the week or the month and we deliver on your date.
Do you charge extra for upper floors?
No. Carrying your goods up or down stairs is included in the price, whether or not the building has a lift. The floor level is noted during the free survey and is already accounted for in your written quote, so there is no separate floor charge and nothing extra to pay on moving day.
Can you transport my bike or car along with household goods?
Yes. Two-wheelers and cars travel on dedicated carriers, wrapped and secured on soft straps, and we schedule them to arrive on the same day as your household goods. This is the usual arrangement for families moving from Karimnagar to Hyderabad, Bangalore or Chennai.

House Shifting questions
How much does house shifting cost from Karimnagar?
It depends on the size of the home and the distance. We publish the full rate card and a cost calculator on our charges page rather than quoting a figure here that could go stale — put your home size and both ends into the calculator and you get a range instantly, with no form to fill in. The final figure is fixed in writing after a free survey, and stairs are included at no extra charge.
How long does a house shifting take?
Packing a 2BHK in Karimnagar takes roughly four to six hours. Local deliveries and moves to Warangal or Hyderabad are completed the same day. Long-distance moves to Bangalore, Chennai or Pune are delivered in two to three days depending on the route.
Do you dismantle and reassemble furniture?
Yes. Beds, wardrobes, dining tables and modular units are dismantled by our crew before loading and reassembled at the new address. Fittings and screws are bagged and labelled per item so nothing is lost in transit. This is included in the quote, not charged extra.

Office Shifting questions
Can you shift our office over a weekend?
Yes. Most office moves in Karimnagar are done on a Saturday night or Sunday so the business trades normally on Monday. We survey the site beforehand, agree a written schedule, and bring enough crew to complete the load, transport and rebuild inside the window.
Do you provide a GST invoice for office shifting?
Yes. Dwaraka Packers and Movers is GST registered under 36KMOPK2468A1ZT and issues a compliant tax invoice on every commercial move, in the IBA format banks and employers accept, which is important if your employer or company is reimbursing the relocation.
How do you handle computers and servers?
Machines are shut down, cabled items are labelled at both ends, and each unit is wrapped in anti-static material before being boxed with foam padding. Servers and network equipment travel upright and secured. At the new office we place each machine at its labelled desk position.

Bike Transport questions
How much does bike transport from Karimnagar cost?
Bike transport is priced on distance rather than on the value of the bike, and is cheaper than most people expect — a local move costs a fraction of a long-distance one. The rate for your specific route is shown on that route's page and in the calculator on our charges page. The bike is drained of fuel, wrapped in corrugated sheet and stretch film, and secured on soft straps.
Do I need to drain the petrol before transport?
Our crew handles it. We drain the tank down to a safe transit level at pickup, which is a legal requirement for carrying two-wheelers and reduces fire risk. You do not need to arrange anything yourself — just have the keys and the vehicle documents ready.
Will my bike be scratched during transport?
Bikes travel in a closed carrier, individually wrapped at the tank, mirrors, handlebars and exhaust, and held by wheel chocks and soft straps rather than metal hooks. We photograph the condition before loading so there is a clear record at delivery.

Car Transport questions
How much does car transport from Karimnagar cost?
Car transport is priced on distance and on whether you want an open or closed carrier. We show the figure for your route on that route's page and in the calculator rather than printing a band here that could drift out of date. The car is inspected and photographed before loading, and you get that record before it leaves.
Should I choose an open or closed carrier?
An open carrier is cheaper and fine for most cars on Indian routes. A closed carrier protects against dust, stone chips and weather and is worth the extra cost for new, luxury or freshly painted vehicles. We quote both so you can decide.
Can my car and household goods travel together?
They usually travel on separate vehicles, because carriers and goods lorries are different, but we schedule both to arrive on the same day at the destination. This is the normal arrangement when a family is shifting from Karimnagar to Hyderabad or Bangalore.

Packing & Unpacking questions
Do you supply the packing material?
Yes. Bubble wrap, stretch film, corrugated sheets, cartons and tape are all supplied by us and included in the quote. We bring fresh, correctly sized cartons rather than reused boxes, because a collapsed carton is the most common cause of damage in transit.
Can I book only packing and not the transport?
Yes. Packing-only is available if you have already arranged a vehicle. Our crew comes to your home in Karimnagar, packs and labels everything, and helps load. Many customers book packing-only when a company transfer covers the lorry but not the labour.
Do you unpack at the new house as well?
Yes, unpacking is included in a full house shifting. We open cartons room by room, place items where you want them, reassemble furniture, and take all the used packing material away with us so you are not left with a house full of cardboard.
Service
Loading & Unloading questions
Do you charge extra for upper floors without a lift?
No. Stair carrying is included in the price whether or not the building has a lift. The floor level is noted at the free survey and is already built into your written quote, so there is no separate floor charge and nothing extra to pay on moving day.
Can I book only loading and unloading labour?
Yes. If you have arranged your own vehicle, we supply just the crew. This is common for shop and godown stock movements within Karimnagar, and for customers whose company provides a lorry but no labour.
Service
Storage & Warehousing questions
How much does storage cost in Karimnagar?
Storage is priced by volume and duration rather than a flat rate, because a 1BHK and a 3BHK occupy very different space. We quote after the survey once we know the volume. Most customers store for two to six weeks between vacating and moving in.
Are my goods safe in storage?
Goods are packed for transit before they go into storage, kept off the floor on pallets in a covered godown, and recorded on a written inventory that you receive a copy of. Nothing is stored loose or stacked directly on the ground.
