"ALL CHARACTERS AND INCIDENTS IN THIS POST ARE REAL AND ALIVE".
As many millennials in India, I was a software engineer who shifted my base frequently to take up new jobs (from Hyderabad to Bangalore, Delhi to Bangalore). Like many others, I was excited about the new opportunity but finding a new house and shifting to it made me nervous. Even after doing research and finding one, I was a victim of packers and movers tactics - Reasons lack of knowledge, my research was limited to the google’s first page.
After hearing to the bunch of horrible stories regarding service standard provided by packers and movers, me and my co-founder decide to build the most trusted, highly transparent and standard marketplace for packers and movers services with technology as it core.
We began our quest to find one answer.
What's the right base price we need to pay for packers and movers services?
Why it's important to get the answer?
Since logistics industry is an old-age and high fragment market in India and most customers never experienced logistics services, don't know about the logistics cost, this gives an opportunity for the middle-men to manipulate prices, service quality, hook-up false promises to people to make their customers leaving behind the services promised.
As a modern marketplace, compare & booking engine and full end-to-end service platform, it’s very important for Migrera to cut down all the noise to bring the right services and price to the customer bringing transparency and trust to choose from.
Our initial quest lasted for 3 months. And over the year, our partnerships with many cheap, professional, branded movers and packers and working with them together for 2500+ moves. We have seen the good, bad and ugly side of the industry and learned many things.
In this blog, we want to share our in-depth overview on how to distinguish different relocation service providers.
Let’s take couple of case studies to understand the market better.
Local Shifting
Priya had to shift her 2BHK from “My Home Jewel” Miyapur Hyderabad to kondapur. She thought this would be a simple task and started searching for packers and movers online. The top searches are most probably the Top 5 or Top 10 websites or Agarwal or Leo. She called up 4 to 5 packers and movers service providers, gets 5 different quotes and confused to choose one when everyone promising the same services. This would be the situation of the many people who had experienced shifting or doing it so.
