Excellent Movers and Packers provides comprehensive moving and packing services throughout Visakhapatnam and surrounding areas. We cover all major localities including Gajuwaka, Madhurawada, Pendurthi, Anakapalle, Bheemunipatnam, and more. We also offer long-distance moving services to other cities in Andhra Pradesh and neighboring states.
We recommend booking our services at least 1-2 weeks in advance to ensure availability, especially during peak moving seasons (summer months and month-ends). However, we understand that sometimes moves happen unexpectedly, and we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests based on availability. For large homes or office relocations, booking 3-4 weeks in advance is advisable.
Yes, Excellent Movers and Packers is fully licensed and insured. We maintain all necessary permits required to operate in Visakhapatnam and throughout Andhra Pradesh. Our insurance coverage protects your belongings during the entire moving process, giving you peace of mind that your items are in safe hands.
Our pricing is based on several factors including the distance of the move, volume and weight of items to be moved, specific services required (packing, unpacking, furniture assembly, etc.), accessibility of both locations (stairs, elevators, parking distance), and the time of year. We provide free, no-obligation estimates after understanding your specific requirements, either through a phone consultation or an in-home assessment for larger moves.
For standard residential moves within Visakhapatnam, we typically don't require an advance deposit. However, for long-distance moves, large office relocations, or moves scheduled during peak seasons, we may request a small booking deposit (usually 10-20% of the estimated cost) to secure your date. This deposit is fully applied to your final bill and is refundable with sufficient notice if you need to reschedule.
We accept multiple payment methods for your convenience, including cash, bank transfers, UPI payments, and major credit/debit cards. Payment is typically due upon completion of the move, though different arrangements can be made for commercial clients or special circumstances. We provide proper invoices and receipts for all transactions.
Excellent Movers and Packers provides all necessary packing materials as part of our comprehensive service. This includes sturdy cardboard boxes of various sizes, bubble wrap, packing paper, tape, furniture blankets, plastic wrapping, and specialized containers for delicate items. Our materials are high-quality and specifically designed for moving purposes to ensure maximum protection. If you prefer to do some packing yourself, we can also supply just the materials you need at competitive rates.
We take extra precautions with fragile and valuable items. Our professional packers use specialized materials and techniques for items like glassware, electronics, artwork, and antiques. This includes double-boxing, custom crating for extremely valuable or delicate items, and using appropriate cushioning materials. All fragile items are clearly labeled and loaded strategically in our vehicles to minimize movement during transit. For high-value items, we recommend discussing additional insurance options for complete peace of mind.
You have complete flexibility with our services. You can choose to pack everything yourself, have us pack everything, or opt for a hybrid approach where you pack non-fragile items and we handle delicate or difficult items. Many customers choose to have us pack kitchens, fragile items, and electronics while they handle clothing and personal items. If you decide to pack yourself, we're happy to provide guidance on proper packing techniques and can supply quality packing materials if needed.
The duration of a local move in Visakhapatnam depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the volume of belongings, distance between locations, and accessibility factors. As a general guideline: a 1-bedroom apartment typically takes 3-4 hours, a 2-bedroom home takes 5-6 hours, and a 3-4 bedroom house usually takes 7-9 hours from start to finish. These timeframes include loading, transportation, and unloading. If packing services are included on the same day, additional time will be required.
