Now a days the best way to shift household things from one place to another is to go with some packers and movers. They are the people who does it professionally and most of the times safely as well. I have done my household shifting from Pune to White Field Bangalore through this packers. 3 of their guys did the entire work and there was a small damage to my teapoy. Other than that every thing was moved safely and I feel they have done a service according to my expectation. They charged me around Rs 75k for it.
