Ways to book packing and unpacking
Most people book packing and unpacking services in Delhi as part of a full house move. You can also book them on their own, which helps when you have arranged your own transport, are sending goods into storage, or only need help setting up the new home.
Packing only
Unpacking only
Both, with the move
Packing materials we use, and what they cost
Using one kind of carton and a roll of tape for a whole house is how things break. Each material below does a specific job. The prices are typical market rates in October 2026, so you can check the material line on any quote.
Packing and unpacking charges in Delhi
Packing-only prices include the crew and all materials. Unpacking is priced separately because some people unpack themselves. Homes full of crockery, books or decor sit at the top of each range.
- 1 BHK1 BHK: ₹2,500 to ₹5,000
- 2 BHK2 BHK: ₹4,000 to ₹8,000
- 3 BHK3 BHK: ₹6,000 to ₹12,000

How fragile and valuable items are packed
Fragile items get the most time and the most material. This is how the crew handles the things people ask about most.
Labelling and the inventory list
Good labels save more time at the new home than anything else. Every carton gets the same four things written on it.
- The room it came from and the room it goes to
- A carton number that matches the inventory list
- Fragile or this way up, where it applies
- A short note of what is inside, for the cartons you need first
The inventory list records every carton and piece of furniture. You sign it at pickup and tick it off at delivery. If anything is missing or damaged, the list is what an insurance claim rests on.
Packing part of the house yourself
Doing some of the packing yourself brings the price down. The safest split is to pack soft, unbreakable things yourself and leave the rest to the crew.
Fine to pack yourself
- Clothes, linen and towels
- Books, in small cartons
- Toys, shoes and bags
- Documents and valuables, which you carry
Leave to the crew
- Glass, crockery and showpieces
- TVs, monitors and speakers
- Furniture that needs dismantling
- Anything you want covered by insurance
Transit insurance policies usually exclude cartons packed by the owner, so keep anything valuable for the crew to pack. The insurance page has the details.
